[quote=Anonymous]Thankfully no, but it's been touch and go at times. His brother is a total failure to launch and never married. I definitely think a lot of the same issues run in the family-- ADHD, extremely low distress tolerance, avoidant behavior. I think what saved my DH to some extent is that he developed a peer group in college who is ambitious and focused. DH is not like that, but he sees from their lives what can be accomplished with effort. He also sees with his older brother the danger of just giving up. It's not easy, but he has managed to create a stable (if low paying) career and is a decent dad to one kid. I actually think the hardest part for us is that his whole family is low functioning and it often just feels like dead weight we drag around. It is very good for DH to minimize the time he spends with them.[/quote]
