now that im not angry. it pains me how my brother always makes it seem like he's being oppressed and made to feel little. i have always believed in his abilities and ive always told him so. but what does one do when one's sibling is so sensitive of his shortcomings and does nothing about it? ive expressed to him my belief and support of his endeavors. the thing is, he does nothing. in the meanwhile, his potentials lay fallow. going to waste.

i do not want to baby him. i do not want to give him special treatment and tiptoe around him every time. i want my brother to become a man. how does a woman go about teaching that?
