Ronnie - April 24th 2011, 10:10 AM

My brother Ronnie has been sneaking out since we came to this new foster home, when he comes back he stinks of beer and smoke and can hardly stand up, this means he gets harsher beatings from our foster dad. He's making it hard for me to even let him see our little siblings as he has beaten me up on more than one occasion when he is drunk. I don't want to give up on my brother, but I don't want him to hurt our little siblings, it scares me that he could blow up any minute. I looked under his bed and his drawers the other day and find this white powder, I don't know what it is, but I suspect its drugs, I also found 4 cans of beers, a bottle of jack daniels and a bottle of vodka. I don't know how he got these but I'm scared for my brothers safety...

What should I do?

Hey there.

I'm sorry this is happening to you, I understand it must be hard for you to go through. Have you tried talking to your brother when he's sobre and telling him what he's doing to you? Maybe tell an adult too. If he realises what danger he's putting you and your family in, as well as himself, he may begin to see that he has a problem. Drugs and alcohol can be bad for a person and his peers, so just make him aware of this.

I hope everything goes okay for you in the end and that he realises what he's doing is wrong. Be supportive at the moment, is what I'd recommend.

Take care always.

Would you let me see beneath your beautiful
Would you let me see beneath your perfect
Take it off now girl, take it off now girl
I wanna see inside.

I tried talking to him when he's sober but it just made him get more angry when he was drunk, he hit Mason, I'm tired of this, he's only 13, the same age as me but yet he's going out and getting drunk and I'm stuck with our younger siblings, I love them and all, but I need some time by myself and I don't trust our foster parents to look after them...

i have read some another one of your posts, firstly you need out of that foster home, secondly tell an adult or a social worker if they dont listen, go to the social services office with all your siblings and ask to speak to the team leader or manager and refuse to leave untill you do so, your brother sounds like he may need counselling, and if he is struggling with controlling hes drug and alcohol use he may also need drug and alcohol counselling best of luck, please take care and seek help you need to be removed from that placement for the safety of you and every single one of your siblings
