[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the one in my family who shoulders 99.999% of the burden. I've made peace with it. I really couldn't live with myself if I didn't. So when my brother and his wife start to complain about how BUSY they are and how MUCH they have to DO, I just leave the room. Whatever. They are jerks and leeches, and they are broken. There is nothing I can do to "fix" them so I am not even going to worry about it.[/quote] I need to adopt this attitude but it’s hard to do. My brother constantly complains about being overworked and underpaid, on-call all the time, with no time to take care of anything apart from his job. He could make some changes to his situation, but he won’t because his ego is so wrapped up in his job. It is what it is and I can’t change him. I just act as if I’m an only child, because it sure feels that way.[/quote]
