Estranged 28-year-old sibling reappears to ask their younger brother for money after cutting family ties: 'They made a dramatic exit'

Two siblings from the same family are having trouble reconciling their upbringing. It's a common experience for many siblings: no parents treat all of their children exactly the same way. 

In some families, the youngest child remains the "baby" of the family forever, and is constantly doted on by their parents. In other families, the eldest kid is the golden child, and the other siblings get compared to them no matter how great their own accomplishments are. Family matters are complex, even when everyone in the family loves and cares for one another. 

In this person's family, something is definitely wrong. This guy shares that his older sibling suddenly cut off the entire family, and refused to speak to anyone for five years. This guy, u/OwnBet5510, seems to think that his sibling was in the wrong for this, since they didn't speak to him for years, either. So he was especially surprised when the sibling suddenly started demanding money after their father passed away, opening the whole issue up again. Scroll down to read the whole story, as well as comments from people who gave their own takes on the tale. 

Up next, read about some sleepless souls who can't catch a break while trying to snooze, like one person who shared that "My AirPod... got in my mouth and I chewed on it in my sleep."
