I had a brother (I say had because I disowned him) that thought it was funny to abuse animals, he's been in and out of prison for the last 22 years. Anyone that can abuse an animal and feel no remorse, their clock isn't ticking all the way around upstairs.

So you're mom says that you're a hillbilly for liking fowl, yet then turns around and claims the birds as her's cause she bought them........ wouldn't that make her the hillbilly?

I hate to say this, but, if the animals are being abused, and you are powerless to stop it, maybe you should find new homes for them and get them out of the situation and away from your brother and careless parents.

I know it would be a sacrifice on your part and would be hard for you, but the animals shouldn't need to live where they are being harrassed and abused just so you can have them. I know that is harsh to hear.

I would then suggest, diving into your school work. Get a great education and really apply yourself, rise above your brother and parents and do well for yourself, then get as many ducks as you want when you can buy and support your own.




One of these days, that poor dog is going to bite your brother, I do hope he gets what he has coming to him, but I'm afraid the poor dog would suffer for it.

I would get them new homes if I could, but I certainly do not want somebody to eat them, and thats probably what they would go to unfortunately. I have told my brother time and time again that the dog is going to bite him. Matter fact she has bit him. Well she is definatly not a hill Billy she uses that so I will 'obey' her.

I just don't know anymore

Don't expect things to change. My siblings and I are in our 40s and 50s, and the one total jackass in the family can still do no wrong in our parents' eyes. They are completely blind to how horrible and dishonest he is. My suggestion is take the waterhose to your idiot brother to show him what it feels like and to be sure that supersoaker either breaks or disappears.

Unfortunately it sounds like your brother has no intentions of stopping his horrible treatment of those poor animals. Actions like that tend to escalate if given the opportunity. Right now he is "only" squirting the ducks but if your parents are letting him get away with it, who's to say he won't graduate to physical harm? Maybe being put down will be better for them than the treatment they are getting now. Sorry if that sounds harsh but I HATE animal cruelty. If your parents aren't able to be spoken to, and believe I know how that is, then I would rise above and re-home the ducks (even if that means they'll meet a freezer) and do what the others have told you. Become successful and happy and possibly without your family.
And just to help you get in trouble, I'd fill my own squirt gun with food coloring of some sort and squirt your bro til he turns bright pink

It might not teach him anything but I'd sure feel a LOT better looking at my girly pink brother for a few days.

I would break the squirter gun with a hammer. I would rub some stinging nettle on my brother if I caught him abusing my animals.It would be worth the punishiment.

I would also plan for the future and save so I could move out early.Can't choose family,but you can choose whether or not you want them a part of your life when you move out.

I agree with getting rid of animals if you can not stop the abuse.

So, she's calling you a hillbilly to make you feel degraded, to make you submitt to her.

Next time she calls you a hillbilly, just smile and say "thank you mom", and walk away or do your chores, scream in a pillow or what ever she wanted you to do. Act like it has no effect on you, other than as a complement! This way you are controlling how she makes you feel, and you take the power away from her.

I know a heck of alot of good people that are hillbillys and that should in no way be a degrading comment.
