re: Suicide attempt thread sparked a question in my head

I'm guessing she was the youngest? That's what happened to my younger brother, he was always the baby and never held to the same standard as my other brother and me.

She is younger than both of us, plus we all have a younger brother. Like your case, the younger siblings were not held to the same standards as my older brother and I, and it has not turned out well for them. My younger brother is content to meander through life playing video games and watching anime, and when he does have a job, it's just a fast food place.
Thankfully he has moved out from my parents. Unfortunately, it is to Kentucky(with a group of his friends) so hopefully life will kick him in the balls and he will decide to grow up.
