        So I (M21) have an older brother (M25). He is a complete ahole. He started stealing money from home when he was in 8th grade. To this day he has stolen lakhs of rupees from our house and my nanaji’s house as well. He is an insanely great liar. My mom and dad are absolutely simple and way too awesome people; they never did any partiality between us, but my brother turned out to be the ahole anyway. 4 months ago, my brother came to us and confessed to my mom and dad that his drinking and smoking had gotten out of control, and now he wants to go to rehab and truly change. Also, he confessed that he had borrowed money from loan apps and from his friends; the amount was 1.25 lakhs, and he never had a job or anything. So as a last chance, my dad somehow paid that amount and sent him to rehab. And we come from a normal middle-class family; my dad is the sole earner. I’m doing internships here and there, but it’s not much to help . My mom and dad have done everything to help him and fix him; my dad has paid his debts multiple times, but he is truly evil. He doesn’t want to change. After coming back from rehab, he has started doing everything again slowly. He has borrowed 20k again from a friend of his; also, I just saw a notification on his phone that his 1 lakh loan is approved by Money View. He is not going to change, and my mom and dad have given up as well. I just want advice on how I can keep my mom and dad safe, that even though whatever financial trouble my brother gets himself into , I just want to make sure that those people won’t come for my mom and dad for paisa vasooli. Please help.

            If your parents are sick of your brother’s behavior, they can kick him out of the house since he’s an adult.

            But don’t just assume that’s what they want to do. Even if he’s stealing money or drinking and smoking, most parents don’t usually take it that far. They might be annoyed or frustrated, but it’s not always enough for them to actually throw him out.

            If you are worried about financial trouble, the talk to them directly and let them know your concerns. At the end of the day, it’s their house, their decision.

              Discuss your concerns with your parents. Then between the three of you you can take a call on next steps.

              Your brothers habits may create more responsibilities for you. As an adult it would be advisable for your parents to lay down acceptable behaviour.
