(Benjamin) was put in charge when Josh was born, and he was given way too much responsibility. |
Ben always had learning disabilities and I think that my sister felt that if there was anything not perfect with the kids it was a reflection on her and she was always hard on Ben. |
He never did well in school, and she couldn't accept that. She felt it was a failure on her part. |
It was over 30 years worth of problems. |
My sister was a very independent, strong woman and I think rather than say she needed help, she was going to try to do it on her own. |
She had way too many expectations, and Ben seemed to get the worst of it. |
She was never going to say she couldn't do something. She would never accept defeat. |
