[QUOTE="Torch10th, post: 14554607, member: 15703"] That's a tough situation for sure. There's nothing incredibly incriminating for having a learning or intellectual deficiency. Is it possible? Yeah, definitely. It's also possible he is just lazy and suckling from the teat as much as he can. That's fairly common for the youngest in a family. That being the case I'll ask you a question. If he does have an impairment, how does that change the situation at all? If your parents are enabling him, being diagnosed as such could turn out to be a big problem. It's easy then to give his situation an excuse. "He's intellectually disabled, so we take care of him." It sounds like to me the issue needs to be brought up to your parents about them being enablers, instead of focusing on whether or not your brother is intellectually handicapped. Even those individuals who are can lead fairly productive lives when pushed to do so. That's going to start with the caretakers. Just something to think about. [/QUOTE]
