Love the show. Stopped watching becuase of a time constraints and recently started catching back up I'm almost done with Season 7.

I'm sure they explained it somewhere in the show and I just dont remember. But somethings been bugging me. Why was Ray the man of the house when they were kids, taking care of the mom by himself? Terry is the older brother. I mean I guess I can assume his boxing career maybe already started. So maybe he just wasnt around enough to help. Anyway just curious if the show stated why Ray took care of her and not Terry. Thanks
