[QUOTE="buddy, post: 536069, member: 12886"] Hi and welcome. Really sorry for the heart break. your description of your brother does sound like he is very immature socially and if he is unable to really "get" humor, that is a big red flag that something else is going on that makes it so he can't really navigate well. Not that he is NOT able to do it but he sure sounds like he has some lacking skills. I agree it woudl be great if there was some way for him to agree to go to a specialist similar to what we call her a neuropsychologist (a special psychologist with extra training in neurology and they do lots of testing and interviews etc. to help figure out how behavior and the mind of the individual work. They can help see if there is a developmental problem, a psychological or psychiatric problem, or a combination. BUT, you are the sister, and he is now grown. Great if your parents want to do any of this but for you, there is some trauma to recover from. I am glad you are here. There are many parents here who have to work on the issues that go along with having a behavior challenged child, one of those big issues is how to help and support the siblings. (we call the kids like you easy child's)...so you go ahead and vent. What you have been through is really a hard thing. [/QUOTE]
