You don't know what he was dealing with back then or even now, OP. It's better to be kind. [/quote]

He's still bemoaning what he went through 20+ years ago.  It was awful, nobody died, and it's been 20+ years.  He doesn't really move past anything.

I'm just annoyed.

You said 12 years ago and now it's 20? Ok.[/quote]
 
You're confused.

-  FIL passed away 12 years ago.

-   My brother had his own issues 20+ years ago.  He still hasn't dealt with those issues.

So why invite him for Christmas? It sounds like you'll all be happier if you just do your own thing.[/quote]

This. I don’t understand why you’re putting yourself to one iota of work for this manchild?[/quote]

Op here.  Our mom was hoping he would come if I asked.

He never did say anything.  He can wallow.  Our parents can make their own arrangements to see him.  I'm done.

Confused by OP's follow-up. So he did visit for Christmas or he didn't? And what do you mean he never said anything. About what? [/quote]

Op here.  He never responded to the invite for Christmas at all.   I haven't talked to him since.

No, he did not visit.  [/quote]

Sounds like a relief that he didn’t show. That is crazy that he’s still mad from 12 yrs ago and has never realized that he was in the wrong on that one.

Enjoy not having to deal with him. [/quote]
