So this morning my little brother left before 7am and didn't tell anyone so my sister and I were freaking out about where he was. We called our mom to see if maybe she had picked him up and took him to school or something, and she didn't. So we're freaking even more and we go down to his friends house who's parents take him to school since it's pretty far and my mom works early. He was there, thank goodness, and his excuse was that he didn't know what time it was when he left.. Yeah, right.. More and more he's just getting out of control. He doesn't listen to us, us meaning me and my sister since my mom's always gone at her boyfriends house... He's been stealing, he's always lying, and it's just so agravating! We shouldn't have to raise him! We think he's acting out more and more cause he wants attention, our mothers attention...God knows she's never around anymore, except when she wants money or the school sends her a letter complaining about Brandon's behavior.. Me and my sister need to have a long chat with her. It's just too much anymore. We can't be what he needs, we just can't. *sigh* So, I'll talk to my sis about it tonight when I get home and hopefully we can rope our mom into actually coming home so we can talk.. Wish us luck!
