I miss him so...what can I do?

Question

My family travelled away 4 days ago and aren't coming back for (at least) 3 months. They left me alone, living with my grandma, but I'm so miserable, sad, bored; I miss my baby brother (1 year and 9 months) so much. I've never been away from him more than 3 days and now I'm not going to see him talk and grow and play with him for so long!
I can't feel happy or concentrate on my studies. I'm grateful to my grandma; she's kind and gets me everything I want; but I'm unhappy. I think that since they are all together - with my little brother with them - they can play with him and see him everyday and it's not a big deal to them that I'm not them.
What can I do? I feel left out, lonely and miserable. Only 4 days have passed and I miss him so much from now...I love him out of them all so much. How am I going to pass a whole three months without seeing him?

Answer 1

i must say uu brother is lucky to have a wonderful and precious sister. well i want you to look on the bright side,they are still coming back and he will still love the same way he did before he travelled.i know what it feels like, mi younger sister died some months back,i miss her so much cos we didnt have a chance to be together befors she died.
continue to be kind and gentle with your grandma and stay focus on ur studies and beforw u know it ur cute and adorable brother will be back to your long hugs and kisses.
stay loved.

Answer 2

It is great that you love your little Brother so much and miss him. He will still be young when he gets back. Concentrate on being the best you can be to your Grandmother while you have the time together. There must have reasons why you could not go also but for now concentrate on what you have not what you don't have. Trust me the time will pass but it will go a lot quicker if you get involved in things you can do something about as apposed to what you can't control.

Answer 3

I'm so sorry you didn't go with your family, but I hope there was a very good reason for breaking you guys up.

The best advice I can offer without knowing the specifics of your situation is to keep the lines of communication as open as possible. Call, e-mail, see if you can arrange a webcam so you can see your baby brother and talk face to face. Send cards and photos. Do everything you can to keep in contact.

Also, your attitude toward your grandmother is wonderful. Keep that gratitude in your heart, and talk to her, too. Let her know how much your baby brother means to you, how much you miss your family. Chances are good that she can help you feel better, offer suggestions to keep communications open, and be there for you if you need a shoulder to cry on.

Keep hope and love in your heart. Good luck--

Answer 4

I'm sorry Sweetheart. I know how this feels, as I was raised like this too. The only thing I can tell you is that it gets better with time. You'll get involved with your friends, or your studies and you will survive. Are you able to call them very much? How about e-mails? Get yourself a calendar and cross off each day. It'll be here before you know it. Good luck.

Answer 7

why did your parents leave you??

Tell your Grandmother- I'm sure she loves you and will help you get through this time. Chin up, think of it this way, the more you focus on your studies the faster time will go and before you know it, you'll be with your brother again. :)

Answer 9

Well first you should call your parent's every day and ask how is he doing. Also ask if they can show him photos of u so when he does see you he'll recognize you.see if he's said any new word's.i think that will help feel meter about him

Answer 10

Talk to your parents about this.
Your baby brother is very lucky to have you. I wish I had had a sister like you when I was a kid.
