Maybe your brother should have started spanking him very hard every day 10 years ago already, or take him out on scouting camps, hunting and fishing and sporting and survival weekends in the wilderness and things like that.

Do you have brothers and sisters?
I am a 180 compared to my brothers. Raised pretty much the same, I probably had a more difficult life.
Kids aren't as controllable as non-parents like to think they are. Sure, you definitely can influence them, but many simply live in a world of their own and you can't do much with them until they figure it out themselves. After all, we all are different people.
I have two brothers that are very smart and very capable of doing great things. Neither of them have any desire to apply their skills and prefer to drift through life.
