My brother Ben has a disability. Because of it he sometimes chucks tantrums and won't do as he's told even though he's twelve years old.

Sometimes I get along with him very well. Like when we're sitting down playing play-station or out playing cricket or playing football. It's good having a brother. He's two years younger than me. He's really good at drawing trucks and cars. I go to Wodonga High School. He goes to Belvoir. He likes it there. He gets to go swimming a lot at school. And they do cooking. He likes that.
