[quote=Anonymous]I completely empathize. My older brother is similar, though he finished college at a very impressive university and his mba. In his mid 20s, he got off track. In his case he definitely has untreated mental illness, bipolar, but refuses to acknowledge or get help. My parents paid for him until their death. My kids know he’s not a good example but they know he loves them. Given his unpredictable behavior and the fact that we live far away, I limit their exposure to him. It is painful and hard to be the responsible sibling. I’m still dealing with taxes he didn’t file for my dad before he died, and of course he can’t contribute to pay them off… No answer, accept continue to keep him at a distance. The fact that he was shamed by innocent questions from a 7 year old tells you a lot. You wouldn’t want to trade laces with him, so maybe feel sorry for him . [/quote]
