My brother has always been the problem child in our family. He is the youngest of three, and has always had everything given to him. He lived with my mom until he was 20 and she bought him a truck and gave him all of her furniture (2 large sofas, huge TV, all master bedroom furniture, everything else you would expect in a house) when she moved out and remarried. He now lives with his off and on girlfriend and pays for nothing. My mom pays his car insurance and gives him money. She was paying for him a place to live. Now he has destroyed his truck, borrowed someone elses and detroyed that as well. Now my dad is offering to give him a very nice car. All my brother ever did is scream and cuss at my mom, not ever talk to my dad, break things and punch walls, steal, get into fights, etc...etc...
I moved out of the house when I was 17 and got a job. I paid for everything I have. I got my own car, my own place, and I work everyday. I never did anything like what he has done. But when I ask my parents for a bit of help with something, they tell me they don't have the time or the money for it. My parents and I are not on bad terms. We talk all the time, unlike my brother who never talks to either of them unless he needs something. Does anyone else have parents like this? Is this some kind of syndrome?
