Brothers, Dad & Christmas
I need help deciding what I should do in my situation. I got ballsy and spoke up about something but now i think I really pissed off my brothers... right before Xmas.
My dad is a hard working man but he's also an addict. He is paying my 25 yr old brothers rent (his GF benefits from this too). Giving my 34 year old brother money for gas and groceries to feed his daughter (his GF also benifits from this). I'm 35 and fully independent.... My dad has enabled my brothers to be this way. Because my dad's health is in jeopardy at this current time, I'm feeling extra sensitive and annoyed they take advantage.
I told my brothers, "you're probably not going to like to hear this but you both need to be financial independent from Dad". Well... they sure as hell did not like hearing this. They both said I was disrespectful and my opinion was uncalled for. I did apologize for upsetting them but I did stand by my feeling that this needed to be said.
Well now I'm afraid they don't want to see me on Xmas and I don't want to make my dads situation anymore stressful. I want to stand by my conviction but I don't want to ruin anyone's holiday. Do I reachout and apologize again!?
