'Street justice': Toxic older sibling redeems himself by standing up to late mother's vulture "friends" trying to claim her things

Nothing can be more difficult for a child than losing a parent. Even if it's a complicated family relationship, that kind of loss is heavily felt, especially when experiencing it as a kid. Recently, a Redditor shared the story of her complicated family life and when she lost her mother. 

On the subreddit thread r/EntitledPeople, she shares the heartbreaking story of her mothers vulture "friends." He mother was very sick and when she passed, she reported it and everyone in the neighborhood watched. After her mother was taken away, her fake friends came rushing in and started fighting over her things. The Reddit poster said that her mother was a very beautiful redhead that had great style. Since she was just a kid, she couldn't stop her mother's entitled friends from ravaging all her mother's belongings. There was one dress in particular, a green silk dress, that was her mother's well-known statement piece. The vultures fought over it, but one eventually was able to lock it in her car. 

While this is happening, her older siblings were coming home from high school. Her oldest brother, a 17-year-old drvg dealer, was feared amongst the family and even the neighborhood. The reddit poster said she was actually terrified of her brother and experienced lots of anger from him. However, in the moment the sadness of losing her mother consumed her, and she went to him and silently showed him their mother's green dress along with a pile of their mother's stuff inside one of their mother's "friend's" car. 

That was their only sibling exchange until the funeral. The reddit poster says her brother really stepped up for the wake and was a different person. He stood tall and made sure all his siblings were okay. The part that truly redeemed him for the family is when they saw their mother, laying their looking peaceful in her beautiful green silk dress. The reddit poster never asked how he did it, but in that moment she finally was sure that, despite all of his issues, her brother really does love this family. Scroll on to read the entire story.
