My brother and father run the family farm. Brother gets paid a good salary, lives in a large farm house for nothing and has bills covered by the business. Dad is fairly controlling, but with reason. He knows the business, is good at what he does, but brother doesn't have a clue. This frustrates dad and makes him critical. Brother has become so angry over the years, he tells me he has no qualms in spending our parents money (expensive holidays and red wine habit). Brother wishes Dad dead, he loathes him, and tells me so. Dad would like to tell my brother and wife to sling their hook and buy them out of the business. My mother won't hear of it because she can't see through her love for her son. My brother and wife (who eggs him on) are tearing the family apart, situation even has me and my husband arguing!! I'm really struggling sitting back and watching all this go on, it's making Dad ill, my brothers intention, so Dad dies and he gets inheretence. Brother has huge debts and is borrowing on the back of the farm to pay off credit cards, tax man, money he owes me and more. Thoughts and advice please....
