[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]  When I look at Katherine,  the first thing that comes to mind is the French expression : Quel gâchis! , which literally means what a waste . A waste because I can't quite figure out why someone born with the resources she was born with/into couldn't possibly make something out of her life other than this contemporary version of the Stepford wife . But, if she's happy , good for her.

Having said the above , I can't help but be happy that I left religion behind since  my early adulthood. The congenital hypocrisy that runs through the self-proclaimed religious crowd or, in this case, the self-proclaimed devout catholic is mind boggling . The fact that this so-called Christian hasn't made any attempt to even have a minimally cordial relationship with her Half brother  tells you everything you need about these people and their inability to adhere to the basic teachings of their professed faith. I'm only slightly older than her and,unlike her, I'm aware of an unassailable truth about this life : It all comes down  to circumstances.  Specifically,  she could've been the one borne out of an extra marital  fling and he born into the marriage . He didn't ask to come into this world under those circumstances. If my father had fathered a child outside of his marriage , I wouldn't hesitate to at least initiate some sort of contact with my sibling,then again I'm not a devout catholic . *eye roll*[/quote]

I don’t think there is anything extraordinary about her, but I don’t really fault her for relationship with her half sibling. She wasn’t aware he existed until much later in life and that must have been traumatic for her (which is why referring to her adolescence as idyllic and some kind of model of success is ridiculous in the first place.) a good friend of mine was in a similar situation at a similar age, and it ruined their relationship with their father. Despite being a good person, they don’t have much to do with the father or the sibling, who is still young. The father is more to blame for creating the situation than their children are for how they handle it. [/quote]
DP. I don’t really have a view either way as I think half siblings relationships are different. However, she wasn’t unaware of his existence. She was unaware that he was her half brother. But the whole family knew him as their housekeepers son and he was initially passed off as her husband’s child and he visited their home frequently. Which I guess kind of makes it worse?[/quote]
