Dear Alice,
I would like to start off by commending you on being as brave and intelligent as you are for a young lady. You did the right thing by getting yourself out of the situation. You need to talk to you father and let him decide what is best for you and your brother. Your mother is sick and you know that. She doesn't mean to treat you the way that she does and as you get older it will become easier to understand. Keep yourself together and stay in school. You have a great future to look forward to ! You are a very smart girl and I wish you all of the best. Take Care.

You, your sister and/or your father should contact your local social service agency and request that they do an investigation and hopefully remove the child to your father's home as well.
Do not try to do this yourself. Go through the proper channels so that the situation will be permanent once it's carried out. You need to show that she is hazardous and unstable and that you are all trying to do what is in the best interest of this special child.
At 13, you will not have much power in this situation, but your testimony can carry a great deal of weight.
Best to you...

If you are going to court for yourself and you think your little brother might be at risk tell your father and lawyer(barrister), tell them they need to make provisions for him so he will be safe....I am almost certain the court is legally bound to act on your brothers behalf. I am truly sorry you have had to go through all this in your life, At your age life should still be shinny and kind and full of playing and safety...... I hope your father and older sister will help you regain that in your life, and your brothers too. I hope you will have a chance to let us know later on how it went and that you are alright. Good luck to you and your brother.

Sounds like you need to, but let your father get involved and go to court when you do. If he cannot be in the area for court have him contact the judge. You don't want little brother to think that you deserted him. Stay in contact with him.

I don't know much about the law but I know that I would speak to other family members about this before I did anything. Mabye your Dad and sister could help you retrieve him. It sure doesn't sound like a good environment for either one of you to be in.

You should tell your lawyer and your caseworker. If she did this to your dad and you then she will probably do it to your brother. That is an even sadder case because he has special needs. Please let your lawyer, caseworker or an adult that you really trust know this. Your brother doesn't need to be there if what you say is true.

You need to consult with your father. If you are truly in danger and worried about your brother I suggest you contact local authorities. Call you father right now and ask him his advice.
