Family drama, please advise?

Here goes. My neice is 23 , her cousin is 27 and I am 26. We all grew up together , well since I was 13. Anyway both my neice CR and her cousin JC are like sisters to me. CR has been nothing but trouble for my brother and his wife. She dropped out of high school her sophmore year, pregnant by 17, married shortly after, cheated twice, baby by the 2nd cheater, almost divorced. (Through all this I was the only one who still cared, even her mom stopped talking to her ) She ended up staying married and having another baby with her hubby. JC was into drugs, sex, drinking before she hit 15, dropped out of high school, pregnant by 17, baby #2 11 months later, got pregs again and wanted to abort but she was 7 months along and I begged her to consider adoption (Noone even believed she was pregnant and everyone called her a liar) I stood by her and tried to give her other options. She decided not to abort and she had baby girl #3(different dad). She is about to deliver a 4th baby girl with her new man(different dad). I finished high school with honors, went to college, served in the military, married , had 2 sons and I always get treated like the black sheep. My SIL always tells me how dissapointed she is that I didn't finish college, but sings CR's praises. Also CR has a horrible temper so we all walk on eggshells around her, even her mom. And CR and JC always talk about eachother like they are so close even though neither was there for the other.CR told me she would leave her kids to her husbands sister if anything ever happened, that broke my heart. I am godmother to all JC's kids but I don't know who she would leave my girls to. I am sick of it all. How can I stop being the outcast? Thanks for reading, sorry it was so long.

Update:

Thanks. But they are my God daughters not grandkids I am only 26. I guess it hurt because because it seemed like my neice was trying to make a point of saying she would not leave me her kids and she said her husbands wife was their for her when she got into a car accident. At the time my son was only 4 months old and her husbands sister(no kids or spouse) , my sister(no kids or spouse), my SIL(her mom) all went up to help. I felt like my husband and son needed me more. But she always throws it in my face that I did not leave my family to go help her.

    sounds like youre a good friend and that you're family doesnt appreciate you. id just forget about them and focus on your immediate family. you cant control how other people see you. they're probably just jealous of how silly and bad their own lives are.

She has no clue what you do for them. My daughter said once that I would never see my grandbaby when she was pregnant I said well thats your choicwe. If you leave to night that I am not letting you move back here. That you make your miond up and that is final. It made her mad as she thought that I was gonna cry aND BEG. i WOULD HAVE CRIED AFTER SHE LEFT. bUT BEGGING AND CRING AND NOT ACTING LIKE WELL ITS YOUR CHOICE AND THATS A SHAME FOR THE BAY. sHE STOPPED HER CRAP AND HAS NOT TRIED SINCE AS i CALL HER BLUFF! i AM NOT ANYMORE GONNA STAND CRY AND BEG. nO MATTER WHAT AS THEY THEN WILL MAKE LIFE BAD FOR YOU. hECK SHE MAY NOT DIE AND LEAVE KIDS SO YOUR WORRING aBOUT THIS FOR EVER. lET THEM SEE YOU WILLNOT DEAL WITH IT. tHEY MAY BUCK YOU AT FIRST BUT THEY KNOW WHAT YOU DO FOR THEM AND IUF THEY WANT THAT THEN THEY NEED STOP THE CRAP. aLTHOUGH THEY ARE STILL GONNA DO SOME DUMB THINGS BUT NOT THREASTEN YOU!!
