wow my mom actually gave me good advice...

[wildislandcurve]

"don't let your brother get to you...no matter how bad he treats u he's will always be ur family..ur blood..a part of you...he will always be part of your life.and you can never change that...yes, you don't deserve what he does...but it's his flaw..everyone has a flaw..it's not right that he hits you or yells..but what little sister or brother doesn't have to put up with that? we all know your more intelligent than he is...so look passed his ignorance..just pick ur head up and be the better person and walk away..don't go to his level"

she then wanted me to apologize to him...but the closest i came to an apology was...

"I FORGIVE YOU FOR YOUR MISTAKES"
