hello mayvis,
Don't ever blame HIM for HE is so good to you. I think you need to talk to your family that life is different now that your father is not around. That one day, you will have your own family and that your brother should study real hard while you are still single. I know how you feel that you can't even buy a pair of shoes for yourself for you are giving all your money to support your family.
Just fine to do that but you need to save some for yourself. That money is hard earned and your family should take that consideration. Your mother should use it wisely. You need to be strong for your family. Don't worry, all your sacrifices to them will be paid off. GOD is not sleeping.

Since father is gone, you are it. Like it or not. Take control. Put your foot down. Tell Mom she has to stop her crazy spending and be a real mother to your brother so he can grow up to be a real man. Tell little brother he has to be the man now that father is gone. Don't give Mom all of your money to spend. Set a budget. Make it work. They will be upset with you at first, but they will thank you in the end. You will feel better too. Good luck. You are a good person for taking on this load. God loves you. He will give you the strength to do what you have to do to bring your family through this. God bless.

hey don't blame GOD. sometimes trials are there to make us more strong.just think of something that can add up into your earnings like what you did here in this site. i salute you.not all daughters take care of parents and other siblings.infact it's the parents rsponsisbility to do that.they should have anticipated that life isn't always fine and that they should have prepared soemthing for odd situations. cheer up.it's yet the end of the world.

It is sad that your mother and brother have their own ways of life. when you are the only earning member, you have the power to discipline them, right? if they still carry on with weird ways, refuse money!!! they will get the message. People tend to exploit when help comes free of cost. Do not b exploited, but stand stern and make your point clear. Distribute money in such a way that you have enough for your little extravagansas. I hope you are not giving the entire sum you earn to your mother or brother to run house, right? Give only as much as needed. If they do not care for you,but your money then you know what to do, right?
Talk out things to both of them, I hop it helps.
