My mother is an elderly 77 yr old who enables my alcoholic brother
all lthe time, last year I decided to distance myself from him and his
family cause hes an abusive son of a ……
But now the latest news is that my brother asked mymother to travel
here to US, mind you its almost 15 hrs. on the bus because he
convinced her somehow that he wants to change his life, meaning
stop drinking, hes done this dozens of times and never ever stops
I tell my mom to stop dreaming, hes a 40 yr old man and you cannot
save him he has to make the commitment on his own, wht you guys
think about this? So when I ask my mom to stay out, she starts that
I never cared ab out him, you know trying to make me feel guilty.
I just get so upset and tired, hes been drinking since 15 yrs old and
she never did anything to stop it. Sometimes I feel like if she werent
my mother, id slap her across the face, she says that its because
I dont know what it is to have a problem child, I say hes not a child
anymore, HES 40 you moron, an everytime she comes its the same
pattern, she comes over, he getsmad at her by the 2nd. day and
curses her out and then she wants to come to my house. I already
know whats going to happen. If this happens, my husband says
she is not coming over the house, this time, you better not opent hat
door, im tired of the fighting and youre brother.? Should I dothis for
her to learn her lesson.? Im even getting physically sick and stressed
