Jason is eighteen and my favorite brother. He dropped out of school and got a job at Burger King. He'd been working there for a little over a year when he realised it wasn't the job he wanted. He has his GED but now its to late to go back to school. Soon after realising that he gave up. On Life. Then one night the cash register wasnt working and he punched it and completely broke it. Now he owes BK 2,500 dollars and had a warrant for his arrest and his court coming up. Well everyone thought if he got a ob before court he would have a chance of paying... but He told my Mom he wants to go to jail.
Jasons been my everything, and I would do anything for him. Im planning on telling him Ill give him 500 to get a job but I dont want him going to jail because my Mom will kick him out.. and he'll have no place to live and Ill be on shit with my Mom bcause ill kill her.
But why does he want this for himself.. I love him and Im not willing to let this happen. What else can I do?

first of all it is never too late to go back to school. You say he is 18. That's when most are starting college. All he would have to do is apply there or any other trade school and he would be on his way.
However, he has to figure out what he wants to do with his life and he is the only one who can do that for himself. He sounds like he has some anger issues. He should probably talk to someone before he does something he can't get himself out of.
If you love him the way you say you do you will tell him this because you only want the best for him. YOu have to show him some tough love. YOu can't keep feeling sorry for him, you'll only hurt him in the long run.
Good luck, [ ediemarie's advice column | Ask ediemarie A Question ]

All you can do is tell him how much you love him and just be there for him. Good luck! Hope I helped! [ mooch789's advice column | Ask mooch789 A Question ]
alwaysmile answered Sunday August 24 2008, 10:00 pm: tell him how much he means to you. let him know you believe in him, and you're there to help him and do whatever to help him get back on his feet. talk to your mom and tell her it'd really upset you if he left. hopefully he would see that people are there for him and he can work harder to make you proud of him.
good luck, and best wishes to your brother. [ alwaysmile's advice column | Ask alwaysmile A Question ]
