Yes, I understand. I wish it were that easy. You see the apartment I am living in is not rented. My family owns it. So, telling me to tell my brother he can't come here is like, well, why don't you yourself move out then. He will find a job hopefully. If he does not, my parents will be livid. I do pay for the management fees here and am hoping he could share the cost. My parents are letting him come here. He used to have jobs but my father's business is all-consuming and my father is using my brother for his help and this has prevented my brother from seeking other jobs. My brother and I are broken people. Also, my brother is one who does well with encouragement. So, my plan is to be positive and encourage him. My parents do nothing but criticize him calling him names and hurting him. He has problems and so do I. I, of course, would rather live alone but I would need to find my own apartment if this is the case. We all have our own agendas.
