My brother was released from prison this morning. He has been in for 2 1/2 years now, for selling illegal firearms to an undercover cop. He was also involved in meth and probably every other drug on the planet. I have a bad feeling. I like him better in prison.
I wrote my dad an email a while back. Here is part of it, "I just want EVERYONE to get along with each other, speak nicely about each other. I need you to PLEASE PLEASE stop enabling Vince. He HAS to get a job, a license, and make an honest living. Let him earn his money and pay for things himself. He needs to establish a relationship with his daughter. These are things he is not doing because everything is handed to him on a silver platter. If you let him go down the path he is going, and not let him take responsibility, the only place it's going to get him is a life sentence or in a grave. He is still young! YOU can help him! PLEASE HELP HIM THE RIGHT WAY! I m scared to death for him. You are the only person he listens to. Shit, random drug test him if you have to! And do not believe his lies!"
So, we will see. My brother was diagnosed bi-polar, but we are not sure if that is a correct diagnosis because he has been on so many drugs since he was 15. My dad and my brother are agaisnt any sort of medication that will regulate him mentally. He thinks he can ust get out of prison and be fine. I pushed my Dad to put Vincent into some sort of counseling, even if it just NA, to help him regulate himself. I think my Dad just said "yeah, okay" to shut me up.
I'm literally sick right now. I like him better in prison... I don't think he is capable of being a decent person outside. As much as I want to have faith in him, he has put us through this shit for nine years. I can't take any more.
