My brother took the path of criminal activities, my family after many years turned their back on him, i stood firm as loyalty took over my mind {ie hes my brother} then he betrayed my trust so i turned my back on him.
Is this breaking a code {rule} ie no matter what, through thick & thin, bloods thicker than water etc etc, ie have i broke a rule {family stick together no matter what}
I feel i have, even tho it wasen't my doing

nox, its strange because i have 4 other brothers and one sister {no problems whatsoever} my mum/dad can't make out to this day WHY he turned out different, what he had we had etc, he was treated no different and WHAM, i can see where the saying ''BLACK SHEEP OF THE FAMILY'' comes from now, it pi$$es me because, i,m a very strong character like the rest of my family and i'm certainly not a defeatest, thats why i think i,ve broking a rule, because its unlike me to give up on him, even tho he's clearly gave up on us
My younger brother , who had none of the beatings and abuse I had, and I both turned out nasty bits of work initially, but for some reason it suddenly seemed to dawn on me that I'd still be repeating the same old things when I was 80 if I didn't have the sense to try to change. That's never occured to Micheal, or if it has he's chosen to ignore it. It distresses him no end that i'm no longer the utter t****r that I was and he feels I've somehow let him down, so actually on this, oddly I know exactly how you feel and agree with you. There's nothing you can do really, except let him know you love him and will be there if he ever sees the light.
Laurence, there is a difference between remaining loyal and allowing yourself to be walked all over. If someone is on an arrow straight course to their own destruction, there is really nothing much you can do, except be there when and if they decide to change.
you may well feel guilty for 'turning your back', but you are also grieving for your brother, for the relationship you desired to have for the feelings of failure in not being able to help him change his ways and probably angry with him too for not seeing what he is doing to himself.
Try to take comfort in the fact that you walked the furthest with him and tried you best. You really can do no more than that, you can never be accused of not trying your best. Some times, no matter how much we love a person, we have let go and say goodbye.
much love to you laurence.
p.s I have broken many rules and let my family down on many occasions as a young teenage daughter, out of control. I did come good though and now have a very close relationship with my mother and my sister. There is always hope.
