My brother's been mooching off my parents his entire life and they continue to give him what he wants. he currently lives in the guesthouse, continues to drink, drug and act like an idiot (he's 26!). Right now he's unemployed and has already wrecked 2 cars. For reasons I can't understand my parents continue to give him more chances and don't understand that they're not helping him. to make matters worse the kid is a total drug addict and a genius but has done nothing with his life. last time I saw him he was high, like always, and laughed it off like a big joke. I'm 29 and have been working hard and saving money my whole life but my brother acts like he can mooch off my parents forever. if I were them I would have kicked him on the street years ago! I don't want to get involved, but it tears me apart how he manipulates them and they don't see it
