29-year-old moves in with 34-year-old brother "temporarily," overstays welcome by months without contributing to rent or bills: 'Well, it’s now June. He’s still here.'

Being the older sibling sometimes means being the caretaker, but there is always a line. This 29-year-old "free-spirited" brother crossed it.

Of course, when there is any sort of crisis, family should be there to support one another, whether it's checking in every day or, in this case, providing that family member with a place to stay.

Pretty soon, the 29-year-old was living at his brother's place without providing any rent money and very little in terms of shared expenses like groceries or electricity.
