Spoiled Brat

On December 7th, just a few weeks ago, my brother Tristan turned 12.  However, if you were to see him, you wouldn't think he was a 12 year old boy in middle school.  He is short, not even five feet tall, you might mistaken him as a fourth grader.  His language is terrible, I don't understand why he finds it necessary to use profanity in every sentence. Oh and his attitude is awful!  He'll throw a fit if he doesn't get his way.  Tristan definitely does not act like a 12 year old.

For his birthday, he asked for an iPod Touch.  Money was tight because of the holidays, so Mom kept saying she didn't think it would fit in the budget.  He cried for it and asked about it every night.  However, Mom had the same response every night.  No one expected him to receive an expensive gift.

One night, I caught my mom searching for iPod Touch prices. I couldn't believe it.  I didn't think he deserved it and neither did my two other brothers.  She said she was just browsing.  I told her not to do it.  It was basically like having a cellphone and I wasn't allowed to have one until high school,  It would be unfair to us if he got an iPod Touch.

While gift wrapping at Target for my Class of 2017 PBO fundraiser, my Mom stopped by.  She handed me a bag and guess what was in it?? AN IPOD TOUCH! What in the world, she said she wasn't going to get it for him..  I wrapped it up but didn't care if it was pretty looking.  The next morning when he opened up the present, I wanted to puke.  Tristan acts like a two year old, he can barely take care of himself, how can he possibly take care of an electronic?

In my eyes, he's a rebel.  In mom's eyes, he's an angel.
