[quote=Anonymous] You have already determined that you can't take them in (and rightly so) and you should be firm about it. Stop letting your mother "guilt" you into to helping your brother. If anything, you could probably use some help yourself. Your brother has been enabled by your mom and other family members and he is expecting them to provide financial rescue once again. Yes, it is a distressing situation but you are going to be in distress yourself if you you try to carry him when your priority should be your own family. Be prepared to distance yourself from your enabling mom--she is going to bring out her claws on this one. State your position with no expectation of your mother's approval. And then don't engage her any further about it. It is unrealistic to think that you can say no and still have your mother's support. Her support is going to your brother as usual. :( [/quote]
