Ok so I have a big problem. My girlfriend's brother is a complete asshole. I don't know anyone worse than him. Not even in movies. He steals her stuff everyday and sometimes he even beats her up. He steals her money, her usb that contained important information on it, and even her school supplies. Usually, this happens in a lot of families but her family doesn't seem to care for the girl at all. Her parents are asian and they seem to only care about the boy. They totally spoiled him and gives whatever he wants to him but doesn't buy anything for the girl. They make her pay for everything and treats her unfairly. The parents always side with the boy and when my girlfriend tells her parents that she knows her brother stole her stuff they turn things around and say she lost it. Its really frustrating me and I don't know what to do.

that's called abuse, and you should call a social worker.

This sounds like much better advice. One way or the other, something has to be changed. I'm hesistant to give spedific advice, that's always difficult from the outside, but what I definitely can tell you is: something's got to be changed.

He's not an asshole; he's being snarky but making a valid point. To the OP: your situation is unfortunate and definitely needs to be addressed/resolved. However, a forum with men talking about clothes isn't the place for it, because we don't know your individual situation. Our prescriptions (overly general, randomly applied) could only make everything worse. My advice: talk to your own parents or somebody (older) that you trust... a teacher, priest, counselor, etc. and go from there. Look for advice before doing something legal (like social services/police/etc) that could escalate the matters beyond what you want. Trust people who KNOW you and your girlfriend; not interwebz armchair Psychotherapist/analysts (aka analrapists)

Guys, go easy on the OP. He sounds very young and is just doing his best to deal with a difficult situation.

Trevor, John has some excellent advice. Listen to him:

Real men kick the **** out of people who beat up and steal from their girlfriends, leaving them optimally with a limp as a reminder.

Lesser men, but still men of honor, find less confronational, but ultimately effective means of removing their girlfriends from the situation or alleviating the issue.

Honorless douchebags complain about it on the internet, and then get pissy at people who make fun of them.

OP's probably a puppet, which is alright I guess. Have you tried talking to the brother?

Sound advice as always Prof. Fab. Getting a social worker involved is ridiculous.
