[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Brushing up on the parable of the prodigal son might be helpful. I'm not Christian but I've always liked the relatability of it, I see it in many families and agree with supporting your kid who needs help.[/quote] This. Imagine what it feel like to be your sibling. Unable to support themselves, always having to get help from their parents, essentially stuck in a bad dream of feeling like everyone looks down on them and sees them as still a child even though they’re grown adults? If you could Freaky Friday the situation, I guarantee you would run screaming back to your current life the minute you you saw how that felt. It also might help you feel a little more empathy for your sibling. Old habits are hard to break for underachievers - once you’ve lived a life for awhile where you aren’t able to support yourself, it’s really tough to break the cycle. Be thankful for who you are in this situation.[/quote]
