Yes, your family should come first, but maintaining healthy boundaries is just as important as maintaining a strong family connection. Having stated that what would you do if your brother came to you for assistance but, in truth, refused to take any necessary action to support himself? Would you remain firm in demanding that your sibling learn how to fend for himself, or would you surrender in silence under the pretense of family loyalty?

The brother who is frustrated is described in the story below. The original poster (OP) describes how his brother got in touch with him and asked for money. As background, the brother of OP was married to a dentist who was enlisted in the military. Because of her job, they were never stationed in one location for very long. Instead, they traveled regularly. As such, the wife earned the majority of the family's income, with the husband handling household chores.

Things significantly worsened for the pair when the wife discovered her husband had been having an affair outside of their marriage. The brother's wife immediately filed for divorce, leaving him penniless. This brings us to the brother's current situation and his need for funds.
