Family Ties

My relationship with my family is very complex, if you want to say so in the simplest of terms.. 
My relationship with my father is depressing since he’s constantly disinterested in me and always pitting me and my older brother, Gob against each other.  
My brother Gob is a pretty temperamental since he's pursuing a career as a failed magician and strives for dad's attention--which he'll never get.
My relationship with my mother is strained, since my mother is the textbook definition of a sociopath and only cares about her reputation and money, which I constantly try to salvage for this family. 
My relationship with my twin sister Lindsay is a bit more neutral, we get along more well together. Although Lindsay shares her mother’s lust for money and good reputation, she has much more empathy and humility, which helps bond us both. 
My relationship with my youngest brother Buster is very… admirable, I'd like to say. I take care of my little brother and try to help him with his relationship problems. I'm a pretty good big brother to Buster and I sympathize with him the most. 
My relationship with my son, George-Michael is also admirable. I try my best to be a good father and pay attention to my son, but there are times when some could say I'm a little overbearing or over speculating. 
Not to forget, my sister's husband Tobias, my relationship with him is a little odd. Since I'm pretty sure he's gay... as in happy, of course, and likes to pretend he's a part of the blue man group. Also, he's an aspiring actor and no one has the heart to tell him he won't get far. 
I try very hard to stay connected with my family and keep them together, even though there are times when I'd rather be far, far, far, far, far, oh so very very far away.
