I find myself almost in this situation...Family is difficult.

Condolences. For what it's worth, it does get better. There is light at the end of the tunnel, after the getting-out-of-the-house thing. My own relationship with my family improved tremendously once I was out from under their power, and I've seen enough people experience the same to believe that it generalizes.

Thanks, but I must clarify...the "almost" part of that is that I'm in my mid 30s and married with a kid.

Of course, being your own person doesn't mean you don't deal with your family.
