Sadly, a few days after this our older brother came over and was giving Bubba pointers on what to do and how not to get caught. Getting Bubba into a counselor would be wonderful, except: I can't do anything but suggest and my mother is slowly reverting back to her old self(long story). She no longer seems to be able to use discipline on him and her grasp on her own rights and wrongs is becoming strange(and no it's not just what I posted about a short time ago, things are slowly getting worse), things are changing again, this time for the worst.
I feel like I can do nothing now, I have suggested to his school councelor to talk to him, but no one seems to want to take the time. My mother seems lost in her own issues and cannot see what's going on. My elder brother seems to think that teaching Bubba to become just like him will help him. Unlikely.
I apologize if my reply seems bleak and somewhat hopeless, but as of recent events I can't wait to get out of here and the only one I truely fear for is my baby sister. I know Bubba has a problem, but it seems the closer I look at everyone else around me, their problems seem to get worse. And it would seem that we are back to square one in my messed up family. I'm actually begining to think that my Dad wasn't all that bad... if that tells you anything.
