[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why did you not call the police on your brother when he threw you down the stairs and put you in a headlock? I ask this as someone whose brother became physical in arguments well into his 20s, and he was older and considerably larger than I was. This is why I moved out at 17--surely as a 25-year-old woman (you're not a girl anymore) you can take care of yourself and remove yourself from a situation where you are unsafe.[/quote]

+1 You need to call the police, and IMO, not just for the physical attack, but also the weed smoking. It's illegal and your brother needs to stop.

If it were me, I'd call the police and find somewhere else to stay. I know you're focused on studying for the LSAT right now, but you're in physical danger. Rent out a $500/month room in a group house - they do exist. Work part time while studying. I've studied for the LSAT too and it doesn't have to be a full time activity - most people studying for it are also full time students, so most people aren't taking months off the prepare for it, like you would for the bar.
