I was raised by a single mother, most of my life until I got through college and got a job of my own. I was at least partially raised on Aid to families with dependent children, and food stamps Ya know Welfare. My Mom was mentally retarded and could not hold a normal job.

I loved my mom, but I was ashamed by the fact that she wasn't like other mom's. My aunt who helped out was a high school teacher with two kids of her own to raise. My Grandparents who we lived with were retired and living off of meager savings and their Social Security Checks.

My Father ran off before I was born and it wasn't until I was in college that I learned some of the truth about him. That he treated my mother like a dog. (No this was not a lifestyle relationship) He had affairs with other women almost right under her nose. He went to Korea with the military and got a Korean National Pregnant. The Korean woman actually had nerve to write to my mother asking her to divorce him so that her baby might have a name.

I am sure she was surprised when my mother telling her that she was pregnant with me!! I found the letter that He wrote her in response packed away and hidden with language that would make the hardest Marine cringe. Telling her that he had syphilis and for her to abort me, otherwise I would be born a mongoloid!!

I am sure you are all glad to know that this bastard is dead and I am going the week after next to West Virgina to piss on his grave. However, his brother is alive and I have found him too. Would you

1) ignore the hell out of him, complete your trip to the grave and bring this closure to your life.

2) Go to his Apartment and tell him what a sorry Bastard he was for not taking up where his brother failed and supported me and my mom.

3) something else

You can't blame the transgressions of one brother to the other.  You may be misinformed of any position or feelings your uncle had in the matter.  I highly doubt he could have changed your father's ways, even if he had tried.

Whatever you chose, I hope your anger fades, and you find peace.

I don't see the brother as having any part in this at all.  It's not his responsibility.  It was your father's, and he failed.

I would choose option number 3.   I wouldn't even bother to go piss on the grave.  You made it, you survived despite all the shit going on.  Be grateful, let go of the anger, and move on.

3.something else

I would meet with his brother, give him the opportunity to have his say about you and your mom.  Sometimes extended family members only hear one side of a situation. Ask him questions, and listen to what he's saying. If you don't like what he has to say. Stand up and leave. Walk away with your head held high and a new life beginning without all this baggage.......Good luck to you! I wish you well

I vote for #3 as well. I doubt you will actually get any real sense of closure from going to his grave. And it really isn't his brother's affair to look after his siblings life. Hell for all you know he wasn't aware of you, seeing as you just found him.
As the others have said, I hope you can find a way to put your anger behind you and move on. You survived and seem to have done well for yourself, a successful life is the best revenge you could get.

Your uncle was probably completely pissed off at your father.  He may not even have known about you, or he might have just been exasperated by that time.  You might not even be the only child your father abandoned.

Would you like an extended family?  If so, your uncle is the best chance you may have to develop one.

And please, get therapy to deal with your anger.

3 for me too.

Pissing on the grave will only give your bladder relief, not your emotions. The brother may/may not know about the circumstances, but what would his saying anything do? Make you feel better? No, it wouldn't. How could it help you if he denies knowledge, makes excuses or simply says I don't want to know?

Try to focus on the good in your life DESPITE your "sperm donors" actions. One earns the right to be a dad/father, it isn't automatic. He was not a dad or a father to you (apart from biologically through his sperm). He earned nothing but your contempt and obvious hatred. How can anything make that right for you?

Let it, and him, go. He was no use alive, how is he going to do anything useful to help you now he's dead?

Why should your uncle pick up where your dad left off? He's not your father. Family yes but not your father. He doesn't have any responsibility towards you.

I wouldn't ignore him either unless you know for a fact that he's a toxic person to be around. You can't just blame him for the crimes of the father.

I would treat him like any other person I come across depending on his personality and our relationship as two people.

In the end here I would say that you should maybe seek some kind of spiritual guidance or therapy for your bitterness about your childhood. It seems as though you still have a lot of pentup anger and resentment and really as an adult it will not help you at all and only cause you to lose everything else around you and other people will find it difficult to be with you.

Forgive and move on with your life.

Really. Why in the world must you be vindictive? That's a choice not genetics.

By the sounds of it, your anger will not allow you to even consider options 3 to infinity. In the end you will probably do whatever you want regardless of the people hear suggestion an alternate course of action. You are you're own person and I hope that what ever choice you make is the wisest and one you won't regret.

Personally, I'd write a letter telling him of the feelings of hurt and abandonment you felt as a child. Of responsibilities he shirked, and in spite of these things, you've grown into a successful individual.  Take that letter and the letter you found, and burn them.  As those words are erased from existence for eternity, let go of the anger for eternity. 

The best revenge is a life well lived.  Forgive him, and vow to not make his mistakes with your own children.

My wish for you is peace and happiness.

Grow up---siblings are not responsible for what happens to each other-- its like saying bro should go to jail because sis robbed a bank.
 
You still have way too much anger---embrace your mom, she made things happen-despite the adversity.

Whatever you decide to do, I hope it's not something that's down at your "father's" level.

Do the right thing and be *RESPECTABLE*, be a Gentleman.
Those who harm us make us stronger.
And John, *YOU* will be the better man for it. It's never easy doing the right thing but you can sleep pretty good at night when you do.
Weak guys get violent, strong guys get respect. We can't go through life being angry.
When you're a Gentleman that makes an impresion that lasts forever. To *EVERYONE*.

Who would you rather be - a victim or a survivor?

If you would prefer to continue being a victim, then continue living in the past with anger and hatred in your heart towards others in your family, and show yourself to be weak.

If you would prefer to be a survivor then start letting go of the past and start living in the present. Learn to let go and forgive and to achieve inner peace through having done so.

You're gonna piss on your dad's grave?  Nice.
Seriously, it's past time to let go of your anger.
Don't bring your uncle into it.  It is not his issue.  And to burden him with it is selfish.  Why you think he owed something to you and your mother is more than I am able to comprehend.  If you can't be civil to your uncle, then please don't consider visiting him.

His brother was not responsible for you or your mother.
He likely heard a very different chronology of events.

You are 41 and are struggling with the fact that your dad abandoned you... that he discarded the very idea of you.
That is a pretty big hole.
It is obviously something you have been dragging around with you for a very long time.
Aren't your arms (and heart/soul) tired?

Imagine what you might be able to accomplish if you could let go of all this grief/rage.

You deserve to have a life.

Do yourself a favor:
Find yourself a decent therapist.

Then stay there and go piss on his grave every day until you get over being angry. The brother has nothing to do with it.
