Thanks for your kind words EraN and Unnati.

I've decided to stay with my dad another semester because my dad needs me and I'm going to try not to let anyone get to me.

My dad's sisters or my aunts have called my dad to India to remarry. We're going to go and see her this year.

I'm hoping for the best. Will let you guys know if anything works out.

We all tried talking to my brother, we tried being nice also (me, my dad, my aunt) but he doesn't even want to talk to us. We asked him to see a counselor but he doesn't want to go there. We can't force him can we? He only talks to his friends and stays in his room. We don't know much about his friends either.

But I think the best thing is for my dad to get remarried maybe my bro can bond with his new mom. But I'm afraid it might lead to heated arguments.

Now everything stable from before no arguments just silence from my bro's side. He got a new laptop and he's happy chatting with his friends.

omG.....this is a chaos.....may be seeking a psychiatrist might help.....my heart goes out for you.....i think since he's 17, i think all teen boys go through this dilemma of being irritated with everything around them.....does ur brother go out and chill with friends?

I don't think being nice would do the trick....may be he wants either some attention or some love.....i am pretty sure you, ur dad and ur aunt try best as u guys can to give him the attention and all the love but he's stubborn.

try to go outside as a family (u, ur dad, ur aunt and ur brother) to some fun places. Go out to eat once in a while. That might do the trick.

Best of Luck!

Why don't you or dad go and meet a counsellor first and explain about this problem? Then the counsellor will tell you how best to handle him. Miracles may not happen, but it's well worth giving it a try.

Wishing you all the best
