Family & Friends

Is it common for family members to put the guilt trip on you?

My brother has always been like this. Throws a fit until you say yes to whatever it is he needs help with. My dad was the same way. Apparently he needs help moving stuff from his house this weekend and wants to use my trailer. He already had movers move all his stuff and I guess he still has a few small things. Im not using my truck or trailer to go that far as my older truck is a pos and for all I know won't even make it 4hrs. My other truck is already in the shop getting fixed. I told him to rent a uhaul trailer for probably $30 for a day. I never looked into what they charge, but its not much. That way I dont have to drag my trailer 4hrs their and back to his new house. They can use their own vehicle. Now he's bringing up stuff from years ago when our parents died. My parents died years ago, where does this stuff come from? He doesn't listen to my reasons for not helping him which I think are very good. I dont want to get stuck with my old truck and a trailer broken down on the side of the road which it probably will, but yet instead of just flat out saying no I provided a perfectly good solution of renting a small uhaul trailer they can tow with their own truck. Acts like a child. Opinions?
