[QUOTE="klmno, post: 364128, member: 3699"] I know you don't won't to feel alone in the extended family over all this, but seriously Susie- you need to accept the fact that NO family has only one very dysfunctional person in it. I know you want the comfort of having ans saving a good relationship with your parents thru this, and that be possible, but please start stepping back a little further and understanding that your bro did not get this way on his own. All this stuff you are describing is very typical of a dysfunctional family- especially the part about people getting upset (feeling threatened) if a member of the family starts detaching from the dysfucntion or questioning it or quits letting the "family ways" determine how they will raise thei own kids. Just ekkp stepping back and I would strongly suggest slowing down communication with all family members for a while. [/QUOTE]
