(And I usually skip "mushy" as being about me unless it is capitalized but sometimes that DOES get me. Haha.)
I can understand feeling a bit left out, sure, but it's better if his relatives ever offered help. Demanding or expecting it... :( Well, I don't know. I know what it's like to struggle, and the idea that people should just help me would...ugh. People can only help others when they can help themselves, too. That's all part of it. And considering that his family may not be as loaded as he thinks, and may want to provide for their children and children's children...well... x_x It really depends.
Though I know what it's like to feel bitter, but then it always makes me feel awful and miserable inside. It's an emotion better pushed out and abandoned, in my opinion. Bitterness is ugly. ;-;

I have some few extra stuff you might like. >:3 I'll send some once I get in. Oh, the items in the store? If they're under 'This week's special' that means they'll be gone after a week. You might want to go for those stuff first. >:3
There's also fishing! Which got me hooked until my sisters took my aquariums! :gonk: There's also a bit of gardening, flowers, veggies and trees, though you won't know what will come out of the seed until it's grown...Gah! I'm starting to babble! lol
My family had to go through hard times as well, and it's during those times that I realized that no one can help us but ourselves. I mean, yes, like you said, people can only help when they can help themselves first, and I don't hold it against them, it's perfectly understandable...but cursing relatives for not helping your situation? That rubbed me the wrong way. >_< It's like...be thankful when help ( ... )

I think it's bad when someone just wants others to help them without helping themselves - because what can others do for you, if you won't do anything for yourself? Wouldn't that be their wasted efforts to help someone who will just give up and expect handouts? That's not the way to live life.
Yes, human nature isn't always a good thing, and we can't easily get rid of it. I have plenty of my own, for different reasons - family related, like yours. :( I understand that all too well.

PS is under maintenance globally methinks, until 1 pm British time. I swear, I don't know why I'm so addicted to it! :gonk:
Yeah, that's the real trouble. My friend is currently jobless, and for some strange reason he's not looking for work, depending on his elder sister to take care of him...could it be that he's just depressed and started blaming his relatives for the state he's in? Kind of like another friend who felt 'lost' when he dropped out of school. He's happier now that he's back on track, having found his life goals perhaps? xD
gah, identity crisis. I had one of those during my teens, it wasn't a pleasant experience, and I now realize it can happen at any age. :gonk:

I might try PS sooner or later, depending if it's available here in California... I have a thing for stuff like that.
Also, I found something on YouTube that might make you either smile, be pissed off, or die laughing and it's Shadow Hearts related to boot! Seems that the artist of Zatch Bell! ( like that series for the boatload of WTF moments in it) is a SH fan, somewhat.
I think I remember him talking about in the freetalk section somewhere in his works, I think. Too bad that in North America, the series cuts off at volume 10 and the series goes on for about 30+ volumes.
Anyways, have fun with it:

Dancing Yuri is just precious. xD And all the focus on the boobies just cracked me up! I really liked the last bit the most, a cartoony SH good ending. :')
No problem being mushy all you like in private...it's when done publicly that makes me cringe a little. lol.

I don't know about self pitying, I don't indulge in it to make a valid point.
