My sister made frequent withdrawals from the ‘bank of Mom and Dad.’ Now our family is torn apart. What can I do?

‘My sister did nothing because she was a girl, and my brother was too young to help’

Dear Quentin,

I am the oldest of three siblings. 

My sister is three years younger, and my brother is eight years younger. My dad was always looking for ways to earn more money. I was pulling wire for an electrician rewiring houses when I was about 12. My dad had some land and rented mobile homes. I mowed the property and even helped dig water lines by shovel (that was 55 years ago).
