My nephew is a good kid. However at 15 he has gotten in trouble with Marijuana at school.

My brother did the same stuff.

My nephew has been battling with depression, and other issues due to his mother abandoning them for meth.

Monday he sent him to live in a halfway house for a month.

My nephew was scared, and started to have a breakdown and in turn got yelled at and my brother told him that he doesn't even like him.

Last week he asked my mom why his father hates him.

Which turned into him getting cussed out when my brother found out.

I love my nephew, and would do anything for him, but untill he turns 18, I cant do much.

I offered him a job, but my brother said no.

I was then told to mind my own buisiness, so I threw my brother out of my house, and had to get a cop to remove him.

I found out yesterday that when my father confronted him, they got nose to nose, and my brother shoved him.

The level of violence I have been contemplating against my brother scares me, but I "will" do time to protect my nephew, and parents.

I just dont understand why he thinks his son believing he hates him is "fine" with him.

My brother has 4 kids, and none of the others were ever treated like this.

Its giving strong "a child called it" vibes.

I told my nephew that as soon as he turns 18, he can move in with me, and we will figure it out from there.

That turned into another shouting match, and my brother decided to grab me.

So I grabbed him by the throat, and started to squeeze.

My mom asked me to let him go, so I did. and this mother fucker suckerpunched me, so I burried my knee in his nuts.

I cant stand him, he is a thief, a lier, and just all around a narcissistic douchebag. If it doesn't benefit him, he doesn't care.

I dont know what more I can legally do to protect my nephew.
