As a Mum of 6 I rely on one of my kids ratting on the other/s or I would be in the dark a lot of the time. She sounds like a cool and loving Mum :) Maybe the Mum is refering to the fact that there is only the three of them in the family and that when she is gone they will be left with each other only.

I assumed said brother still lives at home, as sons are apt to do! Just came across to me like dry humour of a mother. I assumed said brother still lives at home, as sons are apt to do!

It does make parenting easier to keep kids from forming cohesive rebellions. I just love how she mentions that she appreciated how you sold out your brother as a kid.

My brother is mentally ill and so I had a tough childhood with all the things he did. Sometimes I worry about how it will be when my parents are gone. I am wondering if this is the same type of scenario. When she mentions he will be your sole responsibility, is she referring to an illness your brother has?

We've been trying to be good to each other now that we've hit adulthood. My sister and I are still working on it. This definitely could have been my mom talking about my relationship with my brother.
