Well idont no about canada but here if u can prove tot he court u ahve a job and can support yourself then theres nothing your parents can do so I dont see y if u can prove it then u couldnt move out especially if u told the judge y u didnt wantto go back

Yeah would make scence but it would be hard finding a place around here. They are all like 500$ and up, and you have to be 19 with credit to get an appartment or rent something

Im sure if you look around you can find one that caters to young mommies we have housing here that u cant make to much moneyto live there. We did qualify cuz we make eto much money lol we have 1 income and its military if thats not poor enough than I dotn no what is

Yeah.. Thanks:) you guys have been wounderful:)

Girl....! Come on now, give yourself a little more credit! You have got to put your foot down and since no one else cares or is ignoring your brother you have to take action! I PROMISE, your brother will love you more for it later in life! I don't think he needs to be arrested, but they will do that if you call and complain. This is just my opinion, call and get some information from a mental health counselor and find out what your options are since its your brother and not yourself. I know that money can be an issue, they will work with you!!! Tell them everything and talk to someone about your concerns. It would be a lot of hard work for you, but if you love your brother that much and don't want him arrested but want to get him help, I think thats what I would do. It sounds like he may have a disorder, anger problem, etc. Myself and my 5 yr. old daughter are seeing a couselor weekly to deal with some anger problems she has. As for you, there are plaenty of things and opportunitues out there for you also. I am not sure how Canada does things differently than the US, but when are to the age to move out own your own, there should be a lot available for you (assistants with money issues, food, health care etc) You should look into it and that way you can prepare yourself for what you need to do. As for right now, you have to get out!!!!!! I hope the best for you and keep us posted on how things are going for you!

I just have to ask.... Is there anyway that you would be able to sit down with your brother and tell him how you feel?? This might make him realise exactly what he is doing to you and making you feel. You could have a friend go with you so he wouldnt try anything.

I think its disgraceful that your family say ignore it, they make it seem like young brother sister rivalry that happened when you were 5! You are both grown people and both know what is right and wrong! Seems like they say just ignore it in the hope that the problem will go away, it obviously hasnt and something needs to happen. If the talk with your brother doesnt work, maybe you could talk to your dad even though he says ignore it but maybe say something along the lines of.... Dad, can you please stop living in denial and face up to what is happening, he left hand prints on my face, how can i ignore that!?! This problem is not going away and needs to be addressed, I could have him up on abuse charges if nothing is done.
