Not really sure what he has to be embarrassed about. Him not giving a shit about his estranged family doesn't have anything to do with him helping others.

I'm sure we don't know the relationship he may or may not have with his parents and it's funny to me how some are just condemning Rogers without knowing the whole story. For all we know his parents stole money from him and also his brothers may be assholes as well. Being so public about this it seems to me his brothers have other motives and are trying to guilt him. But again I don't have the whole picture to judge.
There would be some things my parents could do to me to have me never fuck with them again.

Fuck them niggas lol.
Cutting ties with your family is a personal choice that is sometimes absolutely the right thing to do. Especially if they're despicable people.
What some people on a forum do or don't agree with ain't got shit to do with what's right in that situation.
Can be anti whatever. There ain't no escaping the reality of who brought you into this world.
It's super tacky at best.
And looking at the one brother he is some sort of sports journalist, why on Earth would he do that? What an idiot.

This is such a daft post.
No one here is anti-family; they're anti-keeping up ties with shitty family members just because they're family.
You probably thought the "Black Lives Matter" movement was anti-white folk too, didn't you?
I'm struggling to think of the downside of cutting toxic people out of your life.
"Because they're family."
Er... and? Is there like a "sit through 10 miserable gatherings with horrible people, get one free" promotion going on or something?

I like to think, even if my parents were assholes, I'd shoot them a text to make sure they were getting out. That may also depend hope close they are. But I don't know and I'm not going to judge too harshly.
Brother still seems like an asshole.

we are not their family
unless anyone knows their family inside and out we shouldn't judge either part of the argument

I wasn't aware that charity and encouraging others to donate and make sure that as much money was raised as possible was something that you use to air your families dirty laundry.
This is some shit you use to write a tell all book years later, not shame your brother who's trying to get as much engagement as possible from these people and who, lets be real with them two now, is the ONLY reason they have the positions in life they have now. I've never even heard of Luke till now and Jordan got years in the NFL and a bunch of TV money cause he was Aaron's brother. He aired him out in 2016 because he cut ties with his family years ago.
Sometimes family is toxic, you don't use your families issue to break down something that's trying to do good for more than just YOUR god damn family. You wanna air your brother out that's fine, whatever be petty about your issues. But don't do it right after he's being used as the face of a serious charity that you've now attempted to make into a farce because you hate your brother. That does damage to OTHER people not just your petty ass familial grudge. Going "PLEASE DONATE" then using the rest of your platform to rail against your brother is some damaging shit.

My grandparents had 4 children, including my mother. Ages range from 30-50.
My grandparents aren't horrible people but can be a difficult to deal with sometimes. They mean well though and there can always be worse.
Two of siblings left them a few years ago and never called or sent money, leaving me, my mother(oldest) and my youngest uncle(30) to deal with all the bills and the numerous operations they had over the years. Grandma had kidney cancer/surgery and grandpa even had brain surgery over the last few years. Thankfully both still in good health.
I'm in dental school and my mom lost her job few years ago, leaving her side business keeping her family afloat, along with my uncle.
Call me bitter, petty or immature, but I'd air that dirty laundry without hesitation if those two siblings were living the high life in the spotlight. People don't get to create nice images of themselves like that and have people in their own lives suffering.
Don't know what happen here, but I'm sure a phone call after an area burning down wouldn't hurt.

We're not judging the argument, just the posting it on Twitter part.
Sorry but unless yall gave them a ton of help and they never repaid it they dont owe you shit because of the random chance that is genetics
They dont owe you anymore than the poor starving children across the world that need help
Have his brothers donated a dime or done anything to raise awareness for this other than shit on Aaron?
If not then who cares if he's an asshole or not, he's CLEARLY NOT THE ONE IN THE WRONG IN THIS SITUATION WHEN HE'S THE ONE GIVING MONEY AND ADVOCATING FOR DONATIONS.
People are dead and dying and have lost everything they have, this isn't the time or the place to start petty familial drama when that drama takes over the narrative. Great, now it's all about Aaron's broken family instead of the tens of thousands of broken families that don't have that ability to reconcile or deal with their grief and you're all but taking money directly away from things that could help them because you have to make it all about you and your issues.

lol you can guess. Odds are that the 2 brothers who aren't estranged from the family were there to make sure their mother, who was probably never "alone in a forest fire waiting for her son to call" was ok. If they were really in a danger situation, I would think that the anger would be beyond embarrassing fights on social media.
Rodgers gave a million dollars of his own money and since he's you know, Aaron Rodgers he was either asked too or of his own volition used his platform of being Aaron Rodgers to encourage everybody to donate money to a charity that's helping people. Idk how he's in the wrong on this on any conceivable level.
Yo I'm a Vikings fan like all hell but if you gonna drop a million dollars to donate when you weren't asked or even expected to do that, then you're all good with me
He doesn't deserve whatever is going on with the bros

As a football player and a mn I hate his skills on the field. But his family is trash
Yeah because blood holding back progression of society is a terrible excuse to tolerate shit.
I don't care what it feels like to you.
It's the very same logic. It's someone listening to people saying they have a problem with a specified group, and then stupidly saying "why do you have a problem with *insert general demographic*?"
Nobody here is "anti-family", and anyone seriously coming to that conclusion in this thread is a moron.
They seem to be the same brand of conservative Christian as Trump, Gingrich, et al
MVP.
Who cares about his family life? Everyone goes through shit in their personal lives, we dont have a right to know about it, odd that so many people even care.
I'm with the - It makes his brothers look like assholes- party. Fuck them for making it more public after the guy donates a million for a great cause.
Go Pack.

Rodgers may come across as aloof and arrogant, but still great on him here.
I'm guessing as he became more open minded and critical thinking he realized what assholes his family were and disengaged.
And even better on him to keep it private and not talk shit.
Fuck dysfunctional families. Keep it GOAT Arod.

As long as your parents are respectful and loving, you owe them a safe passage to the end of their days. At the very least, you owe siblings support so they don't carry the burden alone.
I'm sorry that you think anything else is appropriate.
Devil's advocate: Maybe Luke Rogers is a unhinged crazy Jesus person, but he's not as popular as his other brother, so people just believe him instead of the guy who is able to get a million to go to recovery efforts. Hell maybe their entire family is whack and the guy who escaped was Aaron Rogers?
The fact that nobody knows about any of this is what makes me not care one way or the other.

Aaron Rogers seems like a good, progressive guy, so I'm gonna assume his family are probably shitty. They apparently ruined his relationship with Olivia Munn.
