Tedo our biodad never owned anything in his life except old clunkers and the man had no money to his name, not even retirement other than social security. I suspected at the time there was possible conflict between the girlfriend, biodad, and Stormy.....along the lines of Stormy against those two when bro wasn't around. Biodad was living with them because he could no longer work. After what I see going on with mom I'm guessing bro was doing what he's doing now and siding with Stormy.......girlfriend was fed up and told him it was his biodad or Stormy, bro put biodad in a nursing home. About little more than a year later girlfriend told bro she'd had enough and to get out.
Bro probably doesn't want the house. It's worth a considerable amount, but even maneuvering Mom out of it via nursing home would do him little good in acquiring it, her will was written years ago. I know what it states as I'm executor, even though i don't want to be. I'm the only one she trusts completely. Probably because I've told her for years that I want nothing of hers, to give it to the other kids or go out and spend and enjoy it. lol
I think it's more of a denial deal. Stormy must be telling him the truth because how can she lie to the Daddy who has done everything to save her? So, if she's not lying mom must either be senile or insane. Know what I mean?? Bro is an ex difficult child himself. I'm seeing the same stubbornness concerning Stormy that he had when we were trying to convince him his ex was severely abusing his children. In his eyes right now it's him and Stormy against the world. ugh
Sad part of this is, bro is usually a really great guy with all the right traits. But this is one of his biggest faults, he is loyal to an absurd degree. His kids literally lived through hell due to his loyalty to ex and the blind love thing. His eldest daughter only turned out fairly easy child simply because she hates her mother so profoundly that she made up her mind to never be anything remotely close to her. His son is simply a mess on his 3rd stint in prison. Stormy is well on her way to becoming a major disaster herself if he doesn't get his head out of his fanny. ugh
