My brother will not let dad stay with him at the his house. he says their lives are too complicated and they have to do all this stuff and it would just make for an awful time trying to entertain our father. i don't understand this rationale and i gave my brother a bunch of shit for it saying hes your dad why can't he stay in the house? let him do whatever he wants within reason. i don't understand why this is even a thing. if he wants to sit and watch tv, let him watch tv. wants to read a book let him read a book. if he wants to play with the kids let him play with the kids. hes family not some rando. my brother got pissed off at me and then said hey pal when you have your own house then you could have him stay all you want until then you can't busybody in a situation you dont know anything about. but i do know thats the thing. dad can be a little authoritarian at times but thats easy enough to shut down. how hard is it to tell dad to turn off fox news and head phone dick morris, its not. see my mom went to a nursing home last week and dads all fucked up over it and in my opinion casting him out on the street is just niggardly imo. where's the compassion..... what say you blokes?

Yeah thats what i did up until this. It just blew my mind how cold my brother was over this. Sure my dad was an ass but its not like he burned cigarettes out on our skin. He did the typical dad beatings and berating that go hand in hand with a Irish catholic upbringing.

"He did the typical dad beatings and berating"

AKA your dad was an abusive piece of shit. Gee. I wonder why your brother doesn't really want him around.

He was but if thats the case then he shouldn't be asking him for shit aka money. He was bad with me too but i just give it back to him when it happens now. Not in the form of double berating but in admonishing his bad behavior. I guess my point of this post was to basically say that if dad didnt burn out cigarettes on your cock try to at least let him stay in the house for 48 hrs in th basement spare bedroom.

Irish catholic.

Yeah well there's nothing I can do about that. I gave up the church 30 plus years ago. but I can't undo my Irish heritage nor do I want to.

Nothing wrong with being Irish or Catholic. Embrace your history including your faith.

You know, without that "typical... Irish catholic upbringing" you and your brother might have turned out to be literal faggots getting your buttholes gapped by niggers.
Sometimes the things people hate the most are the very things that make them a stronger person!

I get along more or less with my father now. We're just getting old so what's the point of not liking each other. Eventually in the next couple of years hes gonna drop dead and then a couple years after that it's my turn. So might as well enjoy it while you can..

No monkeys raping my ass please thank you very much.

I'm not catholic, but was raised in a church. Had good folks that loved me and beat my tail when I did wrong, and sometimes when I didn't deserve it. It's exactly like you said. Both my folks are gone now and I'm getting old. I have grandchildren! My parents did the Best they knew how, and tried to teach me to do the same. They did a lot better job than I did. My children mostly don't care if I'm alive or dead. I doubt that they would shed a tear if I died today. They would only be interested in what I left them. You are doing the right thing!

That's because you and your brother are 2 different personalities who experienced those events in your own personal ways, and are now dealing with them in the same manner.

Don't pick sides, let him do his own thing, and maybe talk to him about the past and try to see how it really affected him.

Good idea. I never get to talk to him at all and i was dying at the end of our phone call because of that flair up. It just made me sad really. My brother has a lot going on right now with family and work, and i dont understand what it's like not being in that situation myself.
