Hmmm   Written by Geertje (4/2/2003 6:47 a.m.) in consequence of the missive, GR: Brothers and Sisters: The Thorpes, penned by Cheryl
Are you new?

] He just runs roughshod over this family. I wonder how long his father has been dead and what kind of man he was. This is one messed up family…

Actually your description of John Thorpe matches my elder brother quite well! Yikes! But I guess my brother really cares about his family, but just thinks it is kind of "cool" not to show that. He is approaching 30 but still in his puberty. :)

Family members can have different ways of showing their affection, but I agree that in the case of John Thorpe I have not seen affection at all. Still, I would not say based on these 8 chapters that this is a messed up family.
