Dear Newsweek, My brother and I were adopted as infants, we are not blood related. Our dad passed away in 1997 and our mom has just turned 100 years old. Despite her age she is healthy and active. I live about 30 miles away from our mother, he lives six miles away and does nothing to help. He calls but never goes to visit her.
Several times in your letter, I also noticed you wrote that you "don't understand why" or "don't know why" your brother acts this way. These phrases made me wonder what kind of communications you have with him. Have you asked him why he has so little contact with your mother Is it possible he had a different experience of his childhood and of your mother than you did
Kelly, thank you for your heartfelt note. Your frustration with your brother is understandable. However, there is likely nothing you can do to change him. I'm assuming you've already tried explaining to him what you need from him, but he resists. This means that the healthiest thing to do is to stop ruminating about something you cannot change.
Kidnapped California teen Hannah Anderson was unaware that her mother and 8-year-old brother had been killed and was held under \"extreme duress,\" until she was rescued by FBI agents, San Diego County Sheriff Bill Gore said today.
"iCarly" star Jennette McCurdy shared details of her late mother's physical and emotional abuse, including forced showers at 11 years old with her 16-year-old brother, on the season premiere of "Red Table Talk."
On "Red Table Talk," McCurdy explained some of the control tactics she says her mother Debra used, like teaching her daughter calorie restriction at 11, and forcing McCurdy and her brother to get into the shower with her, where she'd insist on washing them, saying they wouldn't do a good enough job themselves.
Her mother hoarded, forcing McCurdy and her three older brothers to sleep on mats on the floor, she said. McCurdy also said their neighbor threatened to call Child Protective Services many times when he'd hear screaming matches through the family's front door. Often, Debra would chase their dad Mark around the house with a kitchen knife and refused to go to therapy, McCurdy said.
Debra would say McCurdy didn't know how to wash and care for her curly hair, so she had to wash it for her, she said. She also justified the group showers by saying she had "too much to do," and bathing McCurdy and her brother together would speed things up.
Sometime later that evening, the couple's warring sons arrive to the house. As their father was dying, they quarrel with each other. Getting into a scuffle, the older brother grabs a doorknob from the house, and hits his younger brother with it, killing him. The older brother receives a mark on his forehead before seemingly being cast out of the house. Him returns to mother, informing that the man had died. Several people arrive to the house to mourn the loss of the younger son. However, this leads to further disdain by mother. Considering that he wasn't present when mother destroyed the house, it can be assumed that he didn't die, unless the cycle erased him from existence.
It goes without saying that there are several biblical allusions scattered throughout the film. Him represents Abrahamic God of Judeo-Christian belief, and Man and Woman represent Adam and Eve respectively. As such, it is no stretch to say that the brothers represent Cain and Abel. The Older Brother is Cain, and much like in the biblical account, the Older Brother overpowers and murders his younger brother. Also like Cain, God exiles him after he attempted to lie saying that he did not know where Abel was; before he was banished, God gave Cain a mark that would shield him if anyone tries to kill him.
Several explanations were initially suggested, including older age of the mother or the father, and the social interactions between multiple boys raised in the same family. However, the large number of studies confirming this phenomenon, based on huge numbe
