I don’t know how to convey to my husband that his younger brother is not a little boy anymore. My husband’s younger brother is 25 years old. He is no longer a little boy who has no parents: you shouldn’t be so hard on him. My husband’s father died when he was 15, and my husband’s sister was 13. Soon after, my mother got married, but she and her husband died in a plane crash three years later. And then Mark, my husband, already had a little brother. Mark immediately dropped out of school, got guardianship and became the main earner in the family. No one from his mother’s or father’s side helped him.
Mark was his brother’s dad, and their sister was his mom. But, unfortunately, my brother grew up and became a spoiled child. When I met my husband’s sister and brother, I didn’t like Frank right away. He thought he was the smartest, most attractive guy in the world, and he had no sense of gratitude for his brother and sister at all. He was used to his sister and brother solving his problems for him, that he didn’t have to work hard at all.
When he needs money, his brother will give it to him. What I don’t like the most is that Frank is constantly present in my husband’s and my life. In addition, he has no desire to work, and he is already 25. He is either constantly fired or quits. My husband always defends him, always says that Frank is looking for a job, that everything will be fine soon, but it’s not true. We also have a son to take care of, to spend money, time and energy on, which my husband always has, because he is busy with his younger brother. That’s why I don’t want to divorce my husband. But if this continues, there will be no other way out.
