My little brothers teachers keep coming up to me and saying that my brother isnt doing well in class because he keeps reading and wont stop. Not surprising considering this has been an on going event. I decieded to talk to him last night about it and tell him that these are cool teachers, that he can learn a lot. I wanted to be a good older brother and look out for my bro. He ended up getting mad at me and telling me that I shouldnt try to be his dad when he knows that our father has been in prison for 5 almost 6 years and thats not what Im trying to do. My mom came in a short while later telling me its not my place to talk to him about school, that I was in the wrong and was trying to be his dad. After her saying that about ten times I finaly screamed "Im trying to be a good older brother, not his stupid dad!" Next thing you know my mom is telling me I might as well leave if Im going to have "that kind of attitude" because I was planning to move out anyways. So I packed up my stuff and left, and now shes saying that Im a run away. Im really tired of this. My birthday is only a month away, I cant wait. I dont want to be an "adult" but I dont want to be under her ball and chain any longer. Its not worth it.
