What can I do about my brother stealing my money?
I went to college last September and left most of my stuff at home (excluding clothes, basically). My brother, who was 20 at the time, stayed home because he had no job or money. Since I was little I would save these dollars that were sentimental to me...like the last $10 bill my grandpa gave to me before he died and all these other bills I felt had some sentimental value...in all they probably equaled close to $80. My mom just went though her closet today and found that her printed bills from the sixties that she was saving (because they had errors which she said made them worth more than they are) were gone. I decided to check if mine were still there, and they weren't. I hid them in a small box under a sheet of paper and behind some books in my bookshelf. They were all gone too, and to me they're irreplaceable. He's also stolen some of my DVDs I'm so aggravated that my brother just steals and steals when he has no money (He does drugs...he sold almost everything he had for the drugs, right down to his laptop). But when I'm at college I don't expect to come back and see some of the items I cherished missing. I can't even trust him now and I hate it...my mom locks her bedroom door when she's not home because she caught him going through her purse once. He will be 22 soon and when he doesn't have money, he steals. He has a job right now but he blows it all when he gets his paycheck. And I dunno if this matters but he does have a record for skipping court dates, disorderly conduct and not making payments. How can I get him to stop taking my stuff when I'm not home? It's so frustrating. We've confronted him, he's had counseling, but everything seems to go in one ear and out the other with him. Thanks!!
What should I do when my brother hits me?
My Indian brother is the same. He was verbally and physically abusive and has slapped, punched , kicked me; called me a 'bitch' and much much worse. I've cut him off from my life and my heart. I no longer speak to him or acknowledge that he is alive and do not consider him my sibling. Your parents are cowardly. The typical Indian parents who favor the son and indirectly shift the responsibility for his violent behavior on to your head. Mine were the same. It's NOT your fault. Your brother has mental issues and he is venting on you, using you as a punching bag. Your parents are NOT protecting you as they should. By blaming you and not rebuking your brother, they are reinforcing your brother's violent behavior. My advice is IGNORE and STAY AWAY from him. DO NOT let him hurt you physically. STOP talking to your brother. PRETEND that he does not exist. Keep your interactions with him minimal. If he tries to start an argument with you DO NOT engage him, ignore him, go to your room and lock the door. Study hard, get a job and move out.

I'm a 27 year-old male who's never had a girlfriend and has no friends. What can I do to improve my situation?
To the third guy who answered, no I wouldn't go kill people at my school because it's not all of their fault that they just don't like me or anything. Beside, just because I don't have any friends doesn't mean I'm gonna go ******* kill people. Why does it seem that some people tend assume that this is the case, I really don't know. And, to the second guy, you're right. I shouldn't be writing essays late on Saturday. What I should be doing is going out and having fun, or taking care of my kids, or whatever else it seems that people around my age tend to do. But, it certainly isn't what I'm doing now. Unfortunately, I don't see how I can just go out and do all of that from out of no where. I don't know how to hang out in a bar completely by myself because I simply feel safer if I'm with people I know. This kind of goes with what Wesjuh suggested. It's not that easy for me to just simply go out to the clubs because I don't know how to handle those situations on my own. I really do
I have autism, and I can't make friends?
I go to a school with 5 other problem students, in alternative school. they all suck. also, I try to make friends outside of school, and I try to get a girlfriend so bad, but no luck there, either. I have even tried contacting childhood friends, but no luck. I have tried talking to the girls my age at my Turkish cultural center, but no luck. I try befriending children, no luck. I try using social media, I get blocked. im 16 and a guy, and I just want to ask you, is there something wrong with me? does everyone hate me, and what is the point of living?
How to discipline my little brother when he doesn't want to study?
first try to motivate him into studying or make studying more exciting for him, like tell him he can bring his friends over to study with him or something. if that doesnt work talk to him, like when you try to help him with his work. tell him that if he doesn't study, he might have to repeat a grade, he won't get into college/university, won't get a job, and he'll regret it in the future. if it still doesnt work, then stop trying to help him. he should eventually get to his senses and realize that he has to study. even i hate studying and i don't know how, but i motivate myself to study i tell myself that i will be poor and i'll be living on sidewalks. but even if i study i still get bad grades. your brother should be lucky he has a responsible older sister to help him with his studies. i wish i had an older sibling that could help me too but too bad i dont... good luck :)
My autistic brother wants to suicide?
My brother is 23 years old. He has no social life at all. He keeps getting depressed because of anything my mother says, very silly things really. He wants to have friends, he wants to have a girlfriend but he is finding it impossible. He is in debt and has almost no money to live on, no money for food even. He keeps saying he wants to die and that he will kill himself any time soon. He does have a psychiatrist and a therapist but it doesn't seem to help. What can I do about this?
Need some advice... will be homeless tomorrow.?
24 female.... I have nobody, i have to get out of this abusive home. I was waken up just to be spit in my face by my older brother because he said that I didn't wash his sweater like he told me to. I literally forgot. Today's my birthday and it's painful to wake up to this kind of abuse. I've always been told how no one will ever love me and how I will never make it anywhere in life. I'm not hideous, not slow, or anything.I just had a horrible start and need help. My dad told me come Friday, I have to be GONE! He & my mom and my siblings are all moving to Texas. And I cannot come with. They said its time for me to grow up. In which, I agree. I tried to get away, but they never helped me. I will WORK, not LAZY, I had college dreams but they told me that college wasn't for me and refused to pay for it. And I blame myself for allowing it. I'm not blaming anyone. I just don't know how I'm going to make it. All my other family is in Texas and my parents wont allow them to help me out. I live in a small town right outside of Cleveland. I have NO FRIENDS! I can't find a job! There isn't any near. My dad said he will drop me off where ever I need to go. All the shelters have waiting lists and most are for domestic violence victims. I have about $60 to my name... I am going to look for cans, and pennies and take all I have and hop on the Greyhound to Florida. But what would I do when I land? with absolutely no money and no where to sleep. And no car. I have license but no car!
