Should a 23-year-old sister raise a 2-year-old brother when her parents die?

Your parents are dead, and you are your brother's only close relative in this world. No matter what you do, you have an unshirkable responsibility. As an adult, you are fully capable of bringing up your brother. I have the ability and conditions to give my brother a better life. If I don't have the conditions, I must share weal and woe with my brother. Even if I eat bran and swallow vegetables, I can't abandon this bad karma brother.

Of course, this may have a certain impact on your work, life and even marriage, and increase the pressure of life. But think about it, how many caring people, who are not related to those orphans and have no friends, can still help and adopt them to grow up. Your mother's own brother, how can you stand it? It doesn't make sense with emotion and reason, unless you are an extremely cold-blooded and selfish person!

Therefore, you must stand up and take responsibility when your younger brother is helpless, shoulder the responsibilities and obligations of a sister, and do your best to bring up your younger brother. This can comfort parents in the spirit of heaven; Second, it can make the younger brother have affection, love and grow up healthily; Third, I have gained more affection for myself, and I have lost my guilt all my life. Why not kill three birds with one stone? ?

I still want to bring the law here. Please refer to the provisions of the Marriage Law of the People's Republic of China:

Article 28: Grandparents who can afford it have the obligation to support their minor grandchildren whose parents are dead or whose parents are unable to support them. Grandchildren and grandchildren who have the ability to afford have the obligation to support grandparents whose children are dead or unable to support them.

article 29: a brother or sister who can afford it has the obligation to support a minor brother or sister whose parents are dead or unable to support them. Brothers and sisters who are able to afford to be raised by their brothers and sisters have the obligation to support brothers and sisters who lack the ability to work and the source of livelihood.

There is no doubt that you should raise your brother, whether legally or morally. You are a female compatriot, and he is still an infant. If you abandon him, where is your affection? The pressure of public opinion will all fall on you. Besides, will your conscience be at peace? If your parents have a spirit in heaven, they will also hope that you will do your duty as a sister. If nothing else, even if it is to repay your parents' kindness, you should be duty-bound to shoulder this responsibility.
