I really, really hate to rain on your parade but nowhere is it written that life (or dads for that matter)is fair. Maybe your brother already 'did his time' or maybe he does something else that may seem insignificant to you but does even out. Or maybe he sees more potential in you and pushes you harder. Or for that matter maybe he thinks he messed up with your brother when he was 14 and doesnt want to make the same mistake with you. I really hate to sound harsh but it is your dad's house and like it or not he's your dad. Start making a list (keep a paper and a pen by your bed if you have to). It's also possible that your dad really is being unfair. When I was 10 my dad was my hero and could do no wrong, at 14 he was dumb as an anvil, at 20 he treated me too much like a kid, at 24 he bagan to get a little smarter (but was still an a/h about 1/2 the time. Low and behold now that I'm 36 and he's nearly 80 he has become the smartest man in the world and I hope I can be just as good (and just as tough) a father to my boys as he was to me. Good luck! Regards, David
