One family member is disowned by 2 of her 3 children and by proxy, 2 of her grandchildren as well. She's just one of those people who can excuse anything. She's an alcoholic, she's mean to people, and she's selfish. She has one son left making an effort, but it's pretty pointless.
One of her other kids that disowned her is turning out the same way. He's disowned both his parents and keeps finding new ways to be angry at the world. He keeps making excuses and justifying his anger and eventually will have no one left. The only time he reaches out to family is when he needs something, so they are all on thier last straw already. He's borrowed money from them by falsely using his brother's name, stolen from family, made an ass out of himself at every turn, and still thinks all his problems are everyone else's fault.
