[quote=Anonymous]Reading this just makes me angry and tired. My youngest brother is like this. I don't know what you mean by "disabled." My brother was severely coddled as a child and then enabled by my parents and older brother. He's still living off my dad but I stopped speaking to him more than a decade ago b/c i could see that he would never change. He had no interest in trying to change his life around even when my husband and I tried to help him (find a place to live, get a job, drive/pick him up, show him a budget, etc.). He can not be trusted with money. He always looks for the easy way out. He's now in his late 30s. My dad has some wealth but if he passes away, I'm pretty certain my brother would burn through it pretty quickly. This is not your problem. Your responsibility is to your child.[/quote]
