You can read part one and two here and here.
So. With no job and a 1000 payment on his vehicle looming, and an eviction notice, My father invited my brother, his child, and his girlfriend to move in.
This will cause some serious issues between my dad and my sister, my brother and my sister, and unfortunately, me and my sister.
Dad, brother and Sister can work out their own problems, but where do I stand?
The line of safety is So small right now, so slight.
I understand why my father is helping Brother and Co. out, I really do. I do not agree with it, I think they need to:
1. get rid of that monstrosity of a truck and buy something cheaper – both payment wise and on gas.
and
2. fall.
I really really thing that dad always catching them is the reason they still cannot stand on two feet. That maybe it is time for THEM to have to face the consequences of their foolish ways. I mean, I have told them, Dad has told them, EVERYONE has told them what they are doing wrong and how to fix it, but they ignore us. They eat out constantly, they buy things, expensive things instead of paying bills, they are absolutely stupid with money.
But once again, dad is swooping in and saving their hides, and while I disagree with it, I understand it.
(you need to understand that while they are living at my fathers they will not be paying rent, or for the groceries they eat or the power/water etc. they use. In fact, they will expect my father to babysit so they can go out for a night drinking and partying – and he will do it too)(this would be the same man who has NEVER babysat my children. Not once)
But my sister? She will not understand why once again brother is getting the helping hand – especially as it comes SO soon after my father refused her request of TAPE.
And I will be in the middle. I do not want to side with either of them, (though if I HAD to choose, it would be my sister). If I side with dad and defend or even accept his actions, Sister will be mad at me. If I side with Sister, I will make my dad unhappy.
I don’t want that!
I just. I just want my brother to grow up. My sister to continue on the path she is on, and for my father to treat us all – including the grandkids – equally.
But, just like winning the lottery, I don’t have a chance in hell of that happening!
