Reply to comment by stevewm in Man has home 'stolen' as property and everything inside sold from under him by Aggravating_Pie7747

My brother is legally barred from renting an apartment because of the damage he did to one. Like a Hoardes episode. Then he moved into my mom's sun room because I was living in the second bedroom and his kids had taken the third (I was living at my mom's to help her take care of my late stepdad.)

He covered the windows and sliding door in cardboard and just left trash and drugs everywhere. He stole my Darth Vader compact mirror to use as a little crack mirror. I could make a whole post about that

Yeah, I hadn't intended to make the long post I did... but once I started typing, it just came rushing out. My cousin for a while was basically ostracized from the entire family after I finally got her out of my house. They all got tired of the lying, the begging, the stealing. Everyone tried to help her, but she would just take advantage of them in any way she could.

Surprisingly, something finally seemed to click.. For 9 months now she has held a steady job, as has her boyfriend. They are even getting ready to move into their own place. For the first time in her entire life (she is 39) she finally seems thing have things together. I only hope it holds.

I'm happy she's doing better, but fuck, dealing with someone like that is traumatic!.
