[quote=Anonymous]I agree with the other posters about having him apply for SSI or SSDI and then sever the financial and emotional ties the best you can. I have a mentally ill stepbrother who is 45 and also really never launched. My stepmother and father supported him financially on and off in between his bouts of homelessness and/or being in a state mental institution. He was able to get on full disability, has a small monthly stipend, and is in a subsidized apartment. His mother died this summer followed by my father last month. He has no one now and has been harassing me about money since the moment he found out my father died. I'm keeping him at arms length but will be sure he gets whatever inheritance is coming his way. Still, I will not support him financial or having any major role in his life. I feel bad, but he will no doubt drag me down with him if I get too involved.[/quote]
