[quote=Anonymous]This has nothing to do with the wife, and everything to do with your sibling. The wife is not responsible for your sibling maintaining all of his own social and family relationships. If you want a relationship with your brother, YOU need to do the work to make it happen. And if he does have aspergers as you suspect, then it's also quite overwhelming for the wife to pick up the slack in all the areas of life your brother is unable to handle. Like basic life skills like managing a household, organizing, planning, managing the children's school schedule and activities and socialization, basic self-care like going to the doctor/dentist, financial planning and budgeting. Try handling all that, and managing a "tightly wound" husband and let's see if you are also up for trying to "fix" his family relationships, all without complaint.[/quote]
