Bad tempered sibling

Hi,

What advice can anybody give when dealing with a bad tempered sibling. For context this is a single thirty eight year old man

My brother has a foul attitude, he can be abrupt and snap and lose his temper very easily. If you offer advice or an opinion on something that doesn't tally with his he can get very nasty

DP and I have to bite our tongues as he has a DD10 and we have a DD2 who get along great. We want them to see each other

He fell out with my mother a year ago and has cut absolutely all contact. Birthday, Christmas, Mother's Day, nothing. She hasn't seen her granddaughter either in this time and texts to both are ignored. What crime has my mum committed? She said it wasn't convenient when he wanted to drop in at short notice

My dad who lives alone just puts up with his behaviour as he knows it easier than mentioning it. He was very unhappy recently when my brother refused to help him as he'd broken down so I did instead. My dad was furious as he bends over backwards for him

It's like we're dealing with a spoilt brat. If it wasn't for our niece I think we'd go NC but we want the girls to grow up knowing each other. My mother is now talking about changing her will after his latest treatment of her
