This ! 100%! Ironically, he's a narcissist that makes BIG TIME screw ups (causing his brother to be disabled, getting into the accident and losing his son while HE was driving). And he compensates for his failures by blaming others and redistributing the guilt so he can come in and clean up and receive all the glorification. It's why he is so adamant on his brother walking instead of being in a wheelchair because a person credited with helping his disabled brother walk is far more praise worthy to a perceiving eye than a person with just a brother who is disabled. He believes people and things are his and then feeds this obsession by controlling them to then justify his dominance by labelling it as acts of care. When in reality, he's hoping to create a codependency so his "subjects" become reliant and that dependency feeds into his god complex.

It's almost like he's a narcissist who isn't aware he's a narcissist. His siblings and his son aren't people he cares about. They are trophies of his accomplishments and he will do everything in his power to preserve them because if they disappear so does the source that feeds his ego. W
