Did his mother and sisters support him during the trial? If not and they sided with BLM, cutting them off completely is more than appropriate, and even remarkably light. I don't know anything about his home life, I don't follow gossip or social media or any of that stuff. But from you saying "mother and sisters" it leads me to believe that maybe his parents are divorced? A single mom and two daughters becoming rabid leftists and being pro-BLM/Antifa during Chimpout Summer is entirely believable. If my mom and sisters sided with the terrorists who tried to murder me for virtue signaling points, and I made it out the other side alive and free, you can be sure as shit I would be cutting them out of my life forever.
I've never heard any mention of Kyle's father being in the picture.
His mother and two now college-aged sisters seem like white, low income normies struggling to get by through working a series of low pay entry-level jobs.
AFAIK they supported him all the way through the trial and suffered emotionally along with him. I've listened to some interviews with them and haven't ever heard any leftist TDS or BLM stuff.
Rittenhouse wrote a book within the last year disclosing some unflattering info about his family such as his mother having a series of deadbeat bfs and his sister failing out of school.
I believe upon reading the manuscript that they asked that he leave some of their personal details out of his book. But Rittenhouse essentially ghosted them and published anyway.
Then I saw a news piece a few months back stating they were getting evicted.
His mother & sisters are adults so Kyle isn't obligated to help them financially.
But the narrative from them I've seen in interviews is that his trial destroyed their lives in Wisconsin/Illinois forcing them to flee. But Kyle has essentially chosen his new circle of handlers and his 15 minutes of fame over his own flesh & blood who are struggling like many Americans and seem like good people.
More than 80% of divorces are initiated by women. So there's a greater than 4 out of 5 chance that it was his mom who left his dad, tearing their family apart. If that is the case, I can definitely see how that would breed some animosity in the only remaining male in a household of all women. I agree his handlers have been leading him astray ever since the trial, but I'm not so quick to assume malice on his part for not sticking with his mom and sisters. That smacks too much of the old "the plight of the poor helpless woman" song and dance, and that tune has run out its welcome long ago. Most women facing a horrible plight have no one but themselves to blame for setting it into motion, and the sob stories are nothing more than yet another attempt at dodging accountability. If we're going to get into choosing something over flesh and blood, I would start with asking whose idea it was to remove his father from his life at a young age.
The bottom line is that one of the most important things a boy can have in his life to keep him from turning into a dipshit is having a good father around. If the father was kicked out of his life entirely, he ended up becoming a dipshit, and that in turn ended up biting his mom in the ass, I'd say it sucks to suck. Shouldn't have kicked the dad out.
There's reporting that he's cut ties with his mother and two sisters, leaving them in abject poverty.
They had to flee Illinois and change their names as a result of harassment and discrimination from the trial.
Last I heard they were being evicted from their new home.
