an experience I'd like to share. part three.

i didnt think that this would carry on. I didnt think there would be a part three to this.1

its been two years since the last part of this was posted and things have changed so much in some ways, but not at all in others.2

unfortunately things havent changed in regard to my brother and sisters. they still live with their father, and he has a new wife who has a son, 15 years old, 2 years older than my brother.3

now. my brother isnt the biggest 13 year old lad there is, he isnt the smartest 13 year old lad there is. in fact, although nothing has been diagnosed, i suspect that he could be mentally deficient in some way.4

then think of the typical 15 year old chav image? yeah the skinhead who spends his time with the boys sniffing glue or some shit. thats the 15 year old my brother has to contend with now. 5

my brother has regularly come to me saying "He keeps pushing me around"6

"He locked me out of the house for an hour on monday"7

"He hit me shaw!"8

it took 2 months. after that id had enough. one time when the kids were being dropped off at their fathers i knew that this 15 year old was going to be getting home from his part time job. i waited for him after being dropped off by my current stepdad, and i dragged him behind the train station i was waiting in.9

i hit him a few times, put him to the floor. i think i hit him again a few more times. i made sure he knew exactly who i was, i threatened him and said 10

"if my brother ever has to complain about you again ill put your face in the back of your thick fucking skull. if i hear you've said anything about this then ill just make sure you cant tell anyone else"11

at that point i held out a penknife and suggestively ran it across his lips.12

i regret doing that now, i regret the whole thing. but to be fair, the guy became almost a social recluse and stayed away from my brother since then, thats 6 months of freedom my brother wouldnt have had. 13

also, the fight is still ongoing for custody of the children, but its looking more and more likely that it will have to wait until the kids are sixteen. which is hard, because my sisters are ten. my brother is thirteen but will not leave my sisters alone there. i have six years to wait.
