Videogames?

i agree with zekk ...i thought all he used to do is after a fight he would just vent out once in a while in halo 2 . But this is WAY worst than what i thought . He needs a serious reality beating , and i think your sister should just take the damn thing ,and either she brakes it in front of his face or sells it (she could get her money back and pay from all those stupid 4 accounts) and calls and cancels all 4 accounts because if she doesnt they will re-susbscribe every year . thats like 300 $ per year for 4 accounts.

does he work? or is that ALL he does all day long . and whats up with him taking credit cards behind her back . this guy pisses me off.

She acturally broke his first xbox. As you can tell by first I mean he just went and used more of thier money to buy another. It has gotten to the point where she almost shows up at my parent's place in tears but we cannot convince her to leave him or get him to change his ways.

The worst one was when she walked over pushing her wheel chair 3 days after have her sugery. She wasn't even supose to be out of bed for 5 days and she got quite sick from it. When I went back over there to see what happened he was once again playing Halo 2 and didn't even know that she had left which is hard to believe because the TV he uses is only 5 feet from thier door.

So... what exactly is an intervention? I have heard of them but never known what exactly they are or how to set one up.

LOL

Sad thing is I doubt I would stand a chance seeing how I have never played Halo 2 before only Halo. Plus I don't own a xbox

Haha it's all good. You sound like a good guy. I'm not much of an X-box person myself and I only played halo aswell. I suck at it though haha. I just ran around killing people on my team LOL

do you have an older brother ? or does he have one ? maybe someone that he respects should talk to him . example : he likes your father , maybe he should talk to him and make him realize that hes a useless lump ...anyways you get the point.

[Shadowfox426]

I have an older brother but he lives in Alaska but they hate eachother so much they don't even talk to eachother. He on the other hand also has an older brother but he and his brother also do not talk lol. His brother lives in North Carolina acturally.

crap , i feel like this guy needs to get his shit straightend out . Has your sister ever faced this issue with him in a serious and calm conversation , instead of the whole drama fight scene . What she could also do is also cut off the internet connection . so no more Xbox live ... i dont really know anymore , this guy seems like a big problem to me . the only way he'll REALLY change its if HE wants to .

Maybe if your sister just goes out with her friends and she doesnt tell him where shes going , hes gonna start to wonder " where the heck is she ??" and then one day he'll just stop playing , go talk to her when she's around and your sis will have his attention and she'll just say something that she doesnt really care anymore , and that she wont do shit until he cleans up his act and lets go of his childish ways , and that hes married now and he needs to start being a real man and not some sorry excuse of a husband.

[Shadowfox426]

That is one of my sister's big shortcomings is she cannot have a calm arguement she always explodes into crying.

[Junket]

That sucks.

Ah well.

What can you do?

I know.

Post a thread...and as a result, nothing.

An intervention is a system where you get together everyone that cares about him as well as everyone he cares a great deal about. You lock him in and do not let him leave until things are resolved. This is definitely not work at his own place unless you de-boxxed the area. The main issue is he cannot escape, interventions are used as a last ditch effort to let someone know what they're doing to hurt others.

Once you've rallied these people, inprisoned the silly douche, and cut off his escape to the xbox then you must confront him. Have everyone go in turn and say exactly what he's done to hurt them and the extent to how they have been hurt. You should definitely be there with some of the things you've told us here. Also an ultimatum must inevitably come from this. Something to the degree of stopping playing his xbox or everyone here will leave him. Something that'll really snap him into reality.

I'm not a pro at this and haven't actually been a part of one, but there are many professionals who organize these things. I'd suggest googling it and reading up on exactly how it's done. Best of luck with it though.

Ah, ok. Well nothing else has worked so I'll talk with the families and see if we can get anything worked out.
