Out of all the people in the world...

Note: I'm not saying there is no other child with Autism out there in the world. I'm just venting on how my parents chose to raise my brother. And on how my brother acts. Out of all the people in the world, someone with absolutely zero patience for special education children gets stuck with an Autistic brother. Said brother with Autism has decided to piss his sister off at eleven thirty in the morning when she is already pissed off. Brian -mouth full of doughnut-: *yells at fruit flies* Me: -pauses The Soup-: "Brian, please stop yelling at the fruit flies." Brian: -continues to eat doughnut- *yells at fruit flies again* Me: -repauses The Soup-: "Brian, please don't yell at the fruit flies." Brian -talks with mouth full-: "Well why are they here?" Me: "I don't know. Probably because you don't throw away your food properly. You put banana peels in the bathroom garbage can instead of in the garage. And mom and dad put them in the trash bag in the sink. And I throw away my apple cores in the same place." Brian: "Oh." -continues eating doughnut and screams at fruit flies- Me -exasperated-: Brian, stop yelling at the damn flies! Just ignore them. After five more times of this, I finally snap at him. This. Child. Proceeds. To. Crumple. Up. His. Doughnut. I call my dad and bring out his Focalin, which he takes for behaviour. My dad talks to him, and then asks for me to be put on the phone. I proceed to get yelled at for "yelling" at him, because that's what Brian said I was doing. I wasn't yelling at that damn kid until I snapped at him! I told dad that after the first seven times, it gets frustrating. My dad's excuse? "Well, he's a little off, kaytee. You just gotta be patient. Everything he does annoys the living hell out of you." --->Let me throw this in. My parents CANNOT take my brother -anywhere- because of how he acts. My mom, especially, cannot control him, because she's not considered to be as strict as my father. So, they leave him with me, "Oh, we'll just be gone for a little bit." And then they're gone for four or so hours. They've been doing this for four damn years. Yes, he annoys me. Partially because I'm annoyed at -my parents- for leaving him with me because they can't take their son anywhere because they can't control him! I'm sick of it! I have a life too, you know! And he's a greedy little brat, too. I can't stand being around him. He's one of those people, where if you hear his voice, you just want to slam him into a wall. He NEVER shuts up. He even talks in his sleep. He babbles and babbles and babbles and says that all the kids in middle school are gonna be jealous because he always gets what he wants. I'VE GOT NEWS FOR YOU, SWEETHEART! You're in for a HELL of a wake up call! Children in special-education programs tend to get made fun of a HELL of a lot more. And, you'll be equally hated because you're bratty! He kept throwing fits at school! The first time I get into -serious- trouble at school, I just about get my ass beat. This kid only gets his xbox and Legos taken away for a day or two. He continues to get into trouble like that, throwing fits because he realizes that he can get what he wants [he wants to go home] when he does this. I can't get more books, because my parents say we don't have the money. But yet, just yesterday, my dad went out and bought my brother a $200 dollar xBox. It was on sale, granted, so we only spent $200 dollars total, whereas the original total would have been about the price of my Nook, including everything else [memory card, eBook gift cards, etc]. He's constantly spoiled with things he doesn't need. He has a GameCUBE, an original xbox, a Wii, and now a 360. He broke both of the controllers to the GameCUBE and the xBox, and they don't carry xBox or original GameCUBE controllers often. The GameCUBE was mine, but he spilled Crystal Light stuff on it, which made the power button stick, and he ruined all of my games. And then proceeds to say that I traded my GameCUBE for the lizard. No. And he doesn't use his manners. He always talks with his mouth full, always gets what he wants, never says please or thank you. [My parents got him this 360, and he sat down, and began playing Halo, and didn't even say thanks until reminded to say thank you.] And he can't read past a 3rd grade level, and he's going into the 5th grade. I love my brother to death [sometimes], but he's just a spoiled little bugger with buck teeth and he's always vulger. I can't stand it anymore. Good thing my parents are paying me this summer, because there is no way in hell I'd do this for free anymore. And now it sounds like he's beating something against a wall. Probably his head. You're turning 11 next month. Time to grow up. It's sickening. I think that he needs to be spanked. A lot. Because I have zero patience for anyone that acts about as stupid as he does. He blames it on his autism! YOU'RE STILL A HIGHLY FUNCTIONAL PERSON! You are NOT in a wheel chair, you have a 12th grade algebra level, and you're smart as a dolphin, but you act like a god damned moron all the time! You don't have an excuse because you're mildly Autistic. You can help what you say and what you do. If you were severely Autistic, or you had some other mental disability, then I'd give you a break. But you. Are not. Any different. Than the rest of us. /endrant. I really hope no one is offended by this. If you see how my brother acts 24/7, you would understand my anger. I'm not saying he's not a special education child. I'm just saying, he knows what is right and what is wrong. Therefore, he is normal in my eyes. He does not have a severe mental handicap that would prevent him from continuing his everyday life.

i understand, my mom teaches an Autisic class. Its not really a mental disorder but a social one. It sounds like your brother is more serious then some other people. Alot of the kids my mom teaches when they dont get they're throw fits and punch her. She comes home sometimes with bruises and cuts all from these little kids d:but i does sound like your parents need to crack down more on his behavior.

I've worked with autistic children before and as you probably know, they can't help it. It's not like they are trying to annoy you, it just happens. Hang in there!

He's not -severe-. He's mildly. He's just. Smart. Coaster: He knows what is right and what is wrong. He never used to be like this.

Autism or no autism, I couldn't put up with it even if I was paid. I just can't stand kids, and I especially can't stand kids that aren't kept under control. Bravo for only snapping a little, because I would have yelled at a child that was behaving like that in front of me.

I pretty much raise him the way I feel I would raise my children. Trying to get him to respect me as the adult figure when my parents aren't home, and manners, and he got so pissed because I don't let him eat upstairs -_-

Howdy, Stranger!
