im sorry about it being so long but it just hurts that all.. i have worked realy hard to give my sibling a better life than what i've had.. a little insite would be nice.. thnx guys

Update:

as far as we know .. the murder was random.. they broke in our home... dad woke up and i heard screaming.. my dad was a normal guy.. he was a mechanic! nothing wrong there!

    Sound like your life is upsetting. Your mom is horrible, but you have to make the most of her. I lost my dad at a little age but seeing your dad get murdered is horrible. I would be depressed if I was your mom too, though. Just think it out.

    Source(s): And just a quick question- Why did the men kill your dad? Did they harm you?
