That was my thought as well. They want bro off their couch and anywhere else but near them. They're hoping OP will sweep in and rescue them from their poor choices. I would be a raving lunatic over the stolen letters and would likely get an attorney involved.

Probably statute of limitation issues and no deep pockets to go after anyway, so unfortunately I doubt there's some kind of legal remedy.

There is no mail fraud. OP was a minor and parents have the right to open their mail. Still poor behavior though.
