What is wrong with my brother???

<< < (5/6) > >>

javeryh:
I assume since he has no job that he is still living at home with your parents?  How is he getting money for this stuff with no job?

newkillergenius:
and I assume you may have just answered your own question?  I don't know.

It's hard to kick your sun out though, I can imagine they are supporting him. My friend's dad let him stay with them but the dad let him have it verbally "you studied and you didn't finish, you're back home and your not even helping us, you spend the whole day playing games, etc etc.." He got worse after that but then all of the suddent he started working 2 jobs and is getting out more.  He's still at home, no girlfriend, no degree, but he's working 2 jobs and you can tell he's changed. He's more confident and He lost a lot of weight too.

Yeah, it's hard.  It's very hard.  Being hard doesn't mean it isn't the right thing to do.  Some people are never going to man up so long as they have meals and a place to sleep.  They just won't. 

Most of the time in this situation, absent a traumatic event or some type of mental illness, this failure goes back years before the kid got here.  It takes years of serious enabling to make a typical kid refuse to become a man.
