Interesting read. Parents basically disowned one dysfunctional younger brother after numerous years of financial support. Smart programmer with absolutely zero social skills (go figure). The second they cut the support he unleashed his anger. I haven't spoken to him in 2 years and have lost interest in doing so. Still stay in touch with his 2 kids but not as easily as before (ashame since against all odds, they are great kids).
Slight recent strain with older bro who has turned into a Tea Party fanatic. Nothing against the Beck groupies, but the cause completely dominates his personal life so it is a bit tough to just talk to him. Anyone else experience that? I'm sure we'll work thru it over time. I still really admire him.
Otherwise very good relationship with parents, DW's only sibling and my youngest brother. Compared to some of the stories here I feel lucky
