This lazy panda forgot to write something about itself.

Hey Pandas, What Do You Wish Someone Had Told You Before Moving Out For The First Time?
Why my father chose my brother over me. I was living at home with my father. It was me, my husband and my 1 year old son at the time living there. My eldest brother had been living at my grandparents house, but ended up in jail after he came home drunk one night, found out that my grandmother had accidentally opened an envelope addressed to him and went off on her threatening her with physical violence....even going so far as to rip the phone out of the wall. My father decided that my brother should move in with us so that he could keep an eye on him. My brother had been a raging alcoholic for most of his life...and very violent. I screamed at my father for putting me and my son in danger by letting him move in. "All he has to do is get drunk and hurt my son....I will never forgive you if that happens." My father paid the cost of putting us into and apartment that we couldn't afford at that time. He tried helping us with rent...but we were also living in a neighborhood where gun shots outside weren't uncommon and someone was always getting beaten up in the parking lot every weekend. My father finally realized it was an all around bad situation and had my brother put into an alcohol rehab center while allowing us to move back in. Two years later and my husband and I secured jobs that allowed us to move out on our own without financial help.
