I haven't read the replies but I'm in a similar position. It may be the siblings, other people are victims too and don't realise the abuse and dysfunction.
I was scapegoated through my childhood, and I'm sure others who decided to become estranged were too. If the family only know this, it is easier for people to take sides.
