Dear Amy: I grew up in the ‘60s in a Midwestern family where we were taught to repress our emotions. I was a sensitive and creative kid, the youngest of three brothers. My parents were loving but detached, which offered my brother endless opportunities to torment me. I moved away from our small town after high school and have had a good life and successful career. But it took many years to overcome the low self-esteem and a lack of self-confidence that I partly attribute to my brother’s abuse.
And bullying, far from establishing secure control and power, also breaks down the bully’s self-esteem. When visiting with your brother, you should attempt to revisit your shared past by reminiscing about more benign moments. You can then attempt to discuss your own challenges. Your brother arrived into the family before you, and likely has impressions and memories that are very different from yours.
