My brother and I compete to give the most information to one parent or the other whenever there is gossip on the other side of the family.
Does anyone else out there do this?

Sounds like the 2 of you are doing this to make brownie points with your parents as to get a little more when they pass on.

I'm an adult child of divorced parents. I think you and your brother need to grow up.

Sounds stupid to me. I don't get it. Are you telling one parent info on the other???
I agree with a previous poster- you and your brother need to grow up.

I would think you would want to unify your family, not divide it.
