Boyfriend Dissiplines My Lil Bro...not Good?
Posted: 07-14-07 03:43am

Well my boyfriend is awesome cause he gives advice to my lil bro. He's always been great at giving advice since my lil bro listens to him cause he doesn't have an older bro.

But 2nites ago he was a lil drunk and waiting for my lil bro to get home at 12pm and he didn't come home till 2am. We left my folks house at 2am. My bro calls me and says he wants to talk to my b.f to apologize for having gotten home late and for making us wait.

My boyfriend starts yelling at him. Asking him who he thinks he is. That he lied to him. That he trusted him and broke that trust. Etc etc. Yet he has family that loves him and puts up wit him and he kept yelling. We almost got home and I calmly told him I didn't like the way he had talked to MY lil bro. And he said something that seriously made me doubt my role as my lil bros big sister. He said "you guys dont seem to be doing anythimg rite or doin something that works! That's why he's not dissiplined and does what ever he wants!"

We got home he grabbed his things and left..cause he still thinks I'm angry at him for trying set him on the rite path. But I told him I appreciate him giving him advice but not to yell at him like he was his lil bro. By the way he plays the role of father with his 3 siblings and takes that authority from his parents and they don't do anything.

An hour later he came back and I let him in but he slept on the floor. Neither one appologized because I knew I wasn't wrong. He has a back disorder so in the middle of the night he couldn't move so I had to drag him into bed and give him heat therapy which I didn't even get a thanx for.

So now he won't come over to my parents house because of what happen. He yelled so bad he made my brother cry and my mother is angry at him for having done that. My brother said he cried cause he made him feel bad about himself. So my boyfriend is being stubborn and not wanting to hang out wit my folks like we used too and I'm sad cause my folks still think highly of him its just that their a little upset he got outta hand.

Did he do rite in doing what he did?I feel he didn't but any advice and input would help a lot to ease the situation. I'd like to fix that relationship him and my mom had. Any advice?

Did he do the right thing? No, and in my opinion neither did you/parents.............you set the precedent by letting him act as a father figure...........a role he may relish..............but not his...........your father and mother are the ones supposed to be giving direction to your brother not your bf....

.........how to fix? realize everyone concerned contributed to the way things are...............the brother shouldn't be out so late however he did have the decency to call.............the bf, sweet for acting so concerned however needs to tone it down and be what he is, a boyfriend..............your parents should be giving guidance to your brother.........and if you choose .You may also....................

...........No it's not Okay to yell at someone...............but we're all human and we've .All lost it at some point or another...........talk and set some guidelines down..................if you want to punish a teenager(I'm assuming here) you have to take away what matters to them most..................cellphone, internet, spending cash..........freedom..................yel ling just makes em more stubborn Smile

We used to go Friday nites and sometimes watch the soccer game have a few drinks wit my folks and just have fun. He drank a little too much that nite. Like I said I love that he gives him advice but you guys are rite he should tone it down a bit..but he's decided not to even talk to my bro or family anymore. Which bumbs me out cause during the week we.d look forward to Friday nites.

Me and my lil bro didn't have a good relationship wit my dad. He always wanted us to be like his other kids..which didn't really work out cause we actually had minds of our own lol my dad thought that by yelling my bro would listen..but no. My folks split for a year cause of probs, and got back together and things are awesome. But he still thinks yelling will work. So my boyfriend giving my lil bro advice in a calm manner is a nice change of pace.

I didn't let him act like the father figure. He's always respected the boundries my parents have in raising my bro. But being drunk and all he crossed that.my bros a little skater boy who likes street art. But he's also a moocher who's 18 and doesn't have a job lol which I'm pushing him to get. But he's not in a gang never gone to jail. He just still doesn't kno which way to go.

My b.f is ex military so he uses that hard discipline on his siblings. And I don't think he's rite. since its his parents job to do that. I don't see myself moving forward with him cause he's so set on staying wit his folks. If you don't kno what I'm talking about read my post in this forum titled "his parents don't wanna let him go" lol
He's already sending child support to one kid he's got. Now he's taking on the father role with his siblings..that's 4 total.

But that's another story Wink I had a pregnancy scare recently and I was scared blind cause I don't think hed be able to atleast support me emotionally cause he's already got like 4kids to take care of lol. So thank god I wasn't.

But anyways I.ve always been the one to try and discipline my bro and try to lead the way. But kids aren't robots for us to program. They have minds of their own and personalities. my parents took my bros keys away so that forces him to have to come home early which is cool. So now everything has changed. No more Friday nites. No more dinners and games. And its tougher cause I live rite down the hall from my folks apartment :/ lol

My relationship wit my mom is weird. She barely calls me and if she does its to scold me which I hate cause I just moved and I'm happy and she ends up bumbing me out. So we.ll see how things develop maybe with time it.ll be like it used to.....I hope.
