Bel, wow, 6 Mile Road?
If thats the Detroit 6 Mile Road, and I assume it is, I wouldn't drive down it in an invisible car!...thats no-mans-land....your brother and the others should move their clubhouse out a few miles..

..(I'm not doubting they're tough and can look after themselves, either)

Wow, scary stuff, Bel..
I have experienced similar with my younger brother (and my kids too!); sometimes all you can do is send a prayer and/or good thoughts and vibes their way. Hope he stays safe. LOL at the last sentence.

Trust him. It's all you can do at this point.
And some time, if the mood strikes you, you could maybe pour a cup of coffee for the lucky guy who got mugged and terrorized and lived to tell the tale. It's unlikely either one of them will go back there any time soon -- at least when they're flying solo.

Hey..I would have reacted the same way you did, in fact I most probably would have said exactly the same thing..so no I don't think you are over protective..I do hope that everything goes well at the clubhouse.

Re: Re: Re: Not really, because he is old enough to take care of himself
I know when to leave him alone....when he is NOT putting himself at risk. Truthfully, I never ever act like this with him but this is just not the time to do something like this.

Re: Re: Not really, because he is old enough to take care of himself
Now that I think of it, my best friend who is younger than me, is just like a little sister to me. Even though she has her own life and getting married, I still feel the need to protect her. So, yeah, I do understand.
BUT, I also know when to leave her alone and let her make her own decisions.

My oldest brother is still protective of me and still tries to tell me what to do (in a loving way) but I have already told him that I'm a grown woman and I can handle myself (in certain situations). I still appreciate his advice and concern though.
