I swear that both my mum and nan must be in denial when it comes to my brother and his behaviour. [He's 14, and I'm 18]. They always put him first because he is the boy, and if you like, the 'man' of the family because we don't live with my dad anymore. Which is a shame, as I think my brother needs discipline, and having those airheads around isn't helping. They just spoil him rotten - give him everything he wants, let him talk to me like shit when I spend all day clearing up after him (this is another thing, he isn't made to do housework, and so doesn't bother doing anything). He's also started speaking to them like crap too, calling my mum a 'bitch' and a 'slut' when mother very occasionally says ''no'' to him. He also sucks up to my nan in order to get money, and keeps everyone awake until 2am in the morning because he is still on the computer typing away. But because it's him, and he is regarded as some kind of prince, then he can do no wrong.
Today has been the last straw. I was in the kitchen, and he just came up to me and hit me for no reason. I hit him back, and then instead of my mum breaking it up, she just looked at her boyfriend Phil who came to visit us today, and said: ''This is what I have to put up with all the time''. It's just so pathetic, as she made him that way.
I'll be moving out on September 13th, and plan on never coming back. When I mentioned this, mother was like: ''Well, I think you're very selfish!''. Screw them all.
I think this post was just to rant about stuff because I haven't got anyone I can talk to about these things. Thanks for listening LW.
