I 22F and my brother 26M have never had the best relationship but that’s not the point. He called me as soon as I got in my drive way tonight asking me to watch his two kids because he had to fix something. I had just gotten off work (I work in healthcare so it’s very demanding) but I decided to ask my partner to make sure he was okay with it as he would be helping me watch them. My brother (who has an issue with screaming) immediately started to scream at me that he needed f’ing help and that I needed to do it. I ignored him and my partner agreed. He drops the kids off all is well I have to call and ask a few questions as I have no idea what I’m doing. I rarely watch them. An hour an a half goes by and I start to wonder when he’s gonna come get them as I’m wearing out (they’re very young children and require a lot outta you) he says he has to go back to the store to grab something else and I say okay just know I have other plans tonight so sooner the better. He starts screaming at me again. Nothing new when it comes to him. But he tells me he’s almost done so whatever. Another 30 minutes goes by and I text him two question marks and he said almost done. Then he calls me to scream at me for being needy and that he never said how long I would be watching them. He didn’t need to call me when he already texted me he just wanted to scream at me. He comes flying through my door like 15 minutes later and starts to scream at me. In my own house. We get into a screaming match where I tell him he will not talk to me like that in my own home. He continues to scream and so do I infront of his kids but they don’t seem fazed because they’re used to him screaming which is an issue in itself. I tell him I’m never watching his kids and he tells me f you and grabs his kids and storms out. He was screaming so loud you could hear it on my security cameras outside. Now I want to block him. He’s screamed at me so much I don’t want him in my life anymore. Anytime he talks to me he’s screaming about something. I’m over it. He’s lost almost everyone in his life from his screaming and continues to do it. Would I be wrong to block him??
