Well my brother is 14. He is'nt perfect. He brakes the rules and gets in alot of trouble if he gets caught, and if its really bad! He is supposed to be home at 9:30 on weekends. Sometimes he comes home at 10:00.
But one time he came home at 12:30.
I dont know how my mom didnt figure out he wasnt home! But when she found out he got is ALOT of trouble! I dont really care if my brother gets in trouble. I actually enjoy watching. But i love getting my mom mad. Well my brother skipped one of his classes....a couple of times..
Well i dont know if i should tell my parents because if i do, he will get into trouble because of me, and i will get into trouble because i have been keeping this a secret for a while. But if i dont tell my parents, they might find out and my brother gets in trouble and so do i because i never told them. Sould i tell them? Either way hes going to get in alot of trouble!!! haha!

All I can say is that you are not your brothers keeper. From the sound of it you only want to tell on your brother to watch him and your mom fight. If that is the only reason you are doing this well you need to keep your mouth shut... Now if you want to help your brother and be a mentor to him because from the sound of it you are the older brother. Tell your brother that if he does it again you will have to tell your mom. Then that puts the responsibility back on the brother to do the right thing. He already knows that you will tell mom because you care about him and his future.
I really feel for you because you are pushing away the two people who love you the most. Imagine your mom and brother not there with you. Imagine you being in foster care living with strangers.
There is nothing funny about watching your mom stress out and your brother skipping school or breaking his parents rules. The reason why your mom gets upset is because she cares about what happens to your brother and you too. It is when your mom saids nothing about the bad things that you and your brother do is when you will know that she doesn't care. Your mom is very wise and she really does know what is best for both of you... It would be very wise on you and your brothers part to really listen to her. What you do now in school and in your teen age years will determine what kind of future you will have. From the sound of it you and your brother will only have yourselves to blame... Your mom is trying to keep you two focused but all you want to do is stress her out and laugh while your brother is destroying his future. I think you are the one with the problem.
You need to figure out why you enjoy watching the people you love suffer.

You know every one gets caught when they do something that they should not do. Even when nobody tells on them. I can't see how you would get in trouble for something that he did, just because you knew about it.
What you really should do is be glad that you do have a brother. I did until he passed away not long ago. Keep in mind, you never know how long he will be around. I had no clue that my brother wouldn't still be with me now. There is not a day that don't go by that I don't miss him and think about him.

Eventually you will grow up and hopefully become friends with your brother. My brother and sister are two of my best friends. If your brother is out doing things that are dangerous and could cause him harm when he is skipping school, you should confide in your parents because you want what's best for him, not because you enjoy seeing him get into trouble. Tattling is immature.
Just think, if he is an older brother, he will get to drive before you and you just may need to ask him for a ride to a friends. I would suggest you not find so much joy in seeing your brother get into trouble -sounds like jealousy thing - and learn to be friends with him.

if you tell your parents, do you think your parents will believe you? if they don't believe you, will you get trouble? if you didn't tell them, you'll not get trouble because it's not about you.
