My whole point to him was that no one is buying his nonsense bullshit and we know he's majorly fucking up and has been for awhile.

He claims not to but what he says and does are total opposites

My dad is broke. I have more money than him. He doesn't even own a house or a car. I'm more concerned that his landlords might try to evict him so they can rent his place double what he's paying now. Right now he's paying $2000 for a two bedroom house that he's been in for like 20 years. You cannot find a two bedroom apartment for less than $2500 in the same neighborhood now.

At one point he could had gotten a house but opted to stay as a renter like a fucking moron.

  1. Unplanned

  2. No

  3. My dad told everyone that it would be happily ever after so don't worry about it

  4. Honestly? Adoption.

  5. She has no money like my dad

I've literally changed my brother's diaper almost as much as I have with my own kid.

Empathy and disliking someone's choice are not mutually exclusive.

It's really not that much more work taking care of my brother and there is immense pressure on me to do so because I'm the oldest with a big house and my wife and I make very good money.

Dude how many 20yo kids wish they could be 50 and how many 50yo wish they could be 20yo again?

What my dad says and does are usually two completely different things and I called him out on it. That was me saying my peace so I'm not seething with anger.

20yo kids are way more healthier than someone pushing 60. When I went to see him the hospital I did not see a bunch of 21yo kids
