My brother and I never speak. We’re not estranged or anything, but we’ve never really been close, even as kids. We hardly even converse at family functions. Sometimes we visit our folks because we feel guilty, endure birthday parties out of obligation, or attend awkward Thanksgiving feasts for the sake of family unity.So, yes, your brother’s effort to reach out may in fact be disingenuous or due to pressure from your mother, but your mutual obligation might lead to something surprising and positive.Every time we plan to go out with him and his wife, the outings revolve around their children.
