i have one brother... four years younger. him and i have never gotten along... he has some developmental issues (adhd, tourette's, depression, slight ld) that i had a hard time accepting when i was younger, so i would antagonize him all the time over things. he and i were constantly at eachother's throats, and my mom was constantly frustrated with us but powerless to do much about it (single full-time working mother). things finally came to a head when he and i got into a massive confrontation and i had his ass hauled away for attacking me (he may be younger than i, but he's got six inches and a good hundred pounds on me). i was basically forced to leave home and i did so, but even now we still have tension between us. he's one of those kids who just never learn.. i'm afraid he'll always live at home and be dependent on others cuz he can't do a damn thing for himself. he means very little to me at this point in life... if something was to happen to our mother, i would turn him away, brother or not... he and i are just too far apart.
