Psycho Siblings
I think it is terribly telling that LW goes out of his way to say there was no sexual abuse. I actually think far MORE trauma went on than his baby mind has allowed his adult mind to remember... thus the confusion and shame that are percolating in this letter.
It is only in very recent years that sibling abuse (I'm not talking about rivalry, I'm talking about a powerful older sibling annihilating a younger one) has been recognized as the twisted thing that it is and not some charming rite of childhood. To those who can't believe that parents allowed this to go on (obliviously or otherwise), believe it.
