Re: My little brother...

[personal profile] deenaa 2013-04-24 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
I am sorry about your childhood and I hope you are doing better now, but I will say I think you are projecting a little.

I specifically said that OP, as a seventeen year old child herself, needs to stop acting as the buffer between her brother and her parents. It isn't her job to engage him when he is screaming and throwing things because he doesn't want to eat his vegetables (example up thread if I'm not mistaken). Doing so causes her a large amount of stress and solves absolutely nothing.

If her brother has problems, then I hope he gets the help he needs, but expecting a seventeen year old to provide that kind of help is completely unfair. OP shouldn't expect that of herself, and neither should her parents. Asking someone who shouldn't be handling his discipline/mental health to disengage when he gets out of control =/= ignoring him. It just means that she takes a step back and lets the people who SHOULD be engaging him (the parents) do their jobs.
