[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You said he grew up in a dysfunctional household, and was taken advantage of as a young adult, and you’re surprised he doesn’t act the way your happy family members act?  He’s used to being used, and then you ask him to spend hours on his day off helping fix up the house and at the end he’s offered a beer for his troubles. Is it possible he thought there might be some type of actual payment? I get how YOUR family looks at this; my family would be the same. But he did not grow up in the kind of environment where people help each other out of the goodness of their hearts. Yes, he acted very immature, but he’s had no role models his whole life. And on a day when maybe he could have experienced some, you say they were on him about what he was or wasn’t doing, how he was doing it wrong, etc. I suspect multiple things - he IS immature because he had no mature adults showing him the way, and he is self-conscious about what he doesn’t know and the “men” didn’t help matters. And when he got angry he drive around to blow off steam before heading home to a fiancé and baby. Not so much anger management issues as it is you guys not feeling he has any right to be angry period.[/quote]

This.  It is clear that you all don't respect this guy nor his choices very much and he is not a fool...he knows it.[/quote]
