But he is going to try to be in relationship with his older brother.

Make peace with that.

Okay, then be clear about, like you're talking a lot about your feelings and those are important.

Don't get me wrong, very important.

But I want you to be clear.

I don't want men who lie and hurt their family members mentoring my son or my daughter.

Right?

And so it's not like, I feel he's this because when you're like, I feel he's this, well, your husband's gonna be like, well, I feel he's this.

And now y'all are in a conversation that is feelings versus feelings and those never end well.

And so you being clear about what is it about this brother, I'm gonna write it down so I can have it very crystal clear.

I don't want men like this around my kids.

I don't want them mentoring my kids.

I don't want them taking on a paternal relationship with my kids, which a great, my two uncles are incredible.

And they took on an important role in my life.

And so like, but they're good men of character, right?

And so like, I don't want men who are not good character around.

That includes your brother.

And so when he decides A, B, C, and D, when he demonstrates X, Y, or Z, then we can consider having them around.

But just because we share parents, just because we share blood, doesn't mean I'm going to put my kids in an unsafe situation with somebody who lacks integrity.

But that comes from you being very clear and direct.
