He and my brother have been at war for years. My brother resents my dad because of many acts of physical and verbal abuse on my dad's part towards him. My dad refused to acknowledge the acts or apologize till I confronted him about them as an adult, but he's still passive-aggressively seeking sympathy from me, taking every opportunity to play the victim about the fact my brother can't stand him. I asked him not to bring the stuff with my brother up with me again. Why would he ever do that at all after i told him years ago that he was wrong to abuse my brother? I don't feel sorry for him!
