My middle bother....
is a lying, manipulative, devious, thieving shite, and my mother still defends the bastard to the hilt.

So far the list of his transgressions are as follows:

1)orders an entire room full of furniture on my credit card, refuses to pay it back to this day citing the reason "sure that was ages ago"

2)Moves into a new house, tells my mother he's too poor to buy furniture...she gives him our furniture...yes ours, which him and his ugly girlfriend then sell.

3)Sells my guitar, playstation, stereo, books, DVD's, DVD players, old toys, mobile phone etc etc, the list goes on (all on separate occaisions) claiming them as his own just to make some spare cash.

4) Tried to steal my dad's air rifle and sell that, but he's not the brightest and was stopped by the police as he walked past the police station with it over his shoulder.

5) The lies, I can't go into detail here becasue there is so much of it but the lies...the never ending lies and stories. You could catch him eating the last biscuit, half of it still in his hand and when asked if he is eating the last biscuit he would still say "no, it wasn't me" as he chews.

6) The ultimate transgression and the main reason that our feud has carried on for over a decade, while my parents were on holiday years ago my Grandmother took ill, as she lay in her own bed, with her kidneys and liver failing my brother stole around £500 from her purse in front of her, drove to Belfast an hour later and bought himself a lovely £499 guitar effects pedal............. After he was found out my parents let him keep the fucking thing, didn't call the police and to this day almost deny the whole thing ever happened, so he got away with it.

So as a result there is an ongoing fued between me, my brother, mum and dad that erupts every time i visit.. He's almost 40 now and still living at home, not paying any rent and my mum makes him a packed lunch and dinner in the evening everyday of the week.

My only supporter is my eldest brother. However the fury for my middle brother still boils underneath the the surface of my skin when I see him and sometimes my parents for letting him get away with shit like this to this very day.

Im no angel either I might add, no one is but theres a line that family should never cross.

Kill him
It's the only way.

My oldest brother is almost 40
and still lives at home with my parents. My other brother and me bitch and whine and moan about how the elder one hasn't had a days responsibility in his life. He's an alcoholic and doesn't have a job. My parents are in their 60s and quite frankly don't need him being there and being a burden. They both have high blood pressure and my ma is diabetic, so they aren't in the best health to look after a nearly 40 year old spoilt brat.

Until he's been seen to sort himself out (i.e. gone into a drying out clinic) he's been told, in no uncertain terms, that he's not welcome at my wedding. That's a hard thing for me because he's my big brother and I love him but it's the only way I can make sure he doesn't wreck it by getting pissed up and making a show of himself and us as a family, like he did at my other brother's wedding.

know how you feel...
my dad is diabetic and my mum has osteoporosis (spelling?) in the spine, and he has her running around making him cups of tea and making his bed and packed lunches.

It's a shame cos when i was very young my middle bro was very good to me and looked after me most of the time. He did fill my head full of lies and stupid stories, and at one point I almost became very like him as a result.

I know how you feel. My younger brother is quite frankly one of the biggest pieces of shit I've ever known, and is now dead to me and my parents.

So bad, in fact, that I just wrote about the insane christians in my family who I almost hate as much, just because even thinking about him makes me want to punch something..

Simply put, he's a lying cheating theiving drug-addict attempted rapist, and not yet 17..

I'm very sorry to say, but I blame your parents
If they had given him some discipline - to the effect that lying and stealing are WRONG - then he might have mended his ways. But if someone's been living for all their life, learning that it doesn't matter if you behave like crap to other people because there will be no consequences, then they have no incentive to change.

One day, karma will catch up with him. But you might have a long wait - as long as your parents cover up for him.

Did you
Not try to get the money back for the furniture from your credit card company? I'd have rang up, told them someone had gotten hold of my credit card and made a load of purchases (which is true), then just sat back and let the police and the bailiffs do the rest.

Other than that it, he's got his just deserts by ending up the despicable, sad loser that he is. Sounds to me he’s the sort of person who couldn’t possibly have a single friend who actually liked him. I can’t think of a worse comeuppance.
