10 CommentsHe is the oldest Both my parents have health problems, and he does not help with any care for them. They have suppported him throughout his life. I’ve gotten into heated arguments with him all about him not helping. We haven’t spoken in years, but I still see him around at my parent’s home when I’m there.
Some brief tidbits of his unethical behavior and why I can’t stand him:
Claimed injury in an auto accident with my g/f to recieve a measley 100 dollars. My g/f was taking us to see my Mom in the ER. He even stated he was not injured. Raised our insurance for two years.
While he was living with my parents, he never offered to give medicine, take them places, or just watch over them.
He took advantage of my father and asked him to sign up for a car loan even though he knew his siblings were against it.
This i just a tip of the iceberg.I cannot begin to forgive this person because he has not shown he wants to change. I just feel like I may regret not inviting him
True, family is family. But, he turned his back on his parents and does not offer any of his help. I know it is best to forgive, but how can you forgive someone who shows no signs of changing or any remorse?
It is my parents fault for not being strict on him, but its beyond that now. My parents are too sick to argue with him. It affects my Mom to know Im not in terms with him, but how can I be?
One side of me wants to invite him, the other has all the resentment towards him. To be honest, my parents are very sick and I take each day like it may be their last. This is one big event where all my immediate family is there, so it would make my Mom happy. But I know I wouldn’t like seeing him there.
Im doing the best I can, with my Mom now living with me when Im at my house, I even stay at her house to watch over them 2 weeks out of the month! It definately stresses me out every single day.
That little voice inside me is telling me to invite him to just to be nice.
