[QUOTE="AppleCori, post: 697284, member: 16024"] Hi and welcome, Hollie! It sounds like your brother is a 'typical' teen that is respectful, polite, and helpful. This is good news! The problems that you have referred to seems to revolve around his activities, friends, and his social life. Are his friends good kids, as well? I think you need to decide how much/how often you are reasonably able to provide chaeffeur services to friends houses, and what activities you can reasonably take him to and how often he needs to be home doing homework, etc. Then, sit down with him and tell him what you are able to do and what is unreasonable. It is possible that he will be able to get rides from friends parents for some things. Assuming I have read your situation right, try reaching out to the parents of his friends. Most people are willing to help out, especially in a special situation,such as yours. If you can explain your situation further, we could probably help out more. Apple [/QUOTE]
