I know that is so true, I'm on my mom's account right now, and I hate having an autistic brother, he always gets all the attention, and autism is not his only problem, he's MEAN to everybody, but yet he's everybody's favorite, he always get's all the attention, he breaks everything I have, he torments me all the time, and whenever I try to throw away something of mine that's he's broken, he tries to beat the F*CKIN' hell out of me, and everybody loves him, and buys him all kinds of stuff.

I thought it was a pretty good article...sorry for what you're going through.
Is there anyone, such as a counselor that you could talk to? It has helped my daughter to have someone (not involved) to talk to.

I'm deleting the article since it is copyrighted, so not sure it should be here.

No, the counselors around here are psychotic (sp?), and there's no help for my little brother where we live (probably because there's no people where we live :rolleyes: ), that's why we're moving to Indianapolis this summer.
