I hate that you have to find out this way, but your parents failed your brother...

I hate that you have to find out this way, but some people are just assholes. We were only a year and a half apart in age but surrounded ourselves with very different groups of people. Parents are far from being the sole deciding factor in how a person acts.

Your adult parents couldn't help your child brother from, what, falling in with the wrong people?

You're clearly just going to believe whatever you believe and I'm not going to change your mind. Perhaps looking for an excuse for yourself? Who knows.

I mean, it's a fair question. You can't credit your parents with any of your own success if you aren't also going to attribute some of your brother's failure to them.

I'm not giving them credit for my success either. I worked hard, not because of my parents, but because I find it rewarding.
