I think my stepdad once tried to strangle my brother
What do you think your stepdad was trying to do to him?
He probably wanted to kill him.
If your stepdad has been physically abusive to members of your family, that is very wrong and something that should be reported to the authorities. Your stepdad should act as a father and not someone who physically hurts people in your family. He may need psychological help in managing his anger if he can't control it and lets it out on his children.
Nah, I'm getting tired of everything. It's always just more and more arguing and drama. It's just a waste of time.
How will you feel though if your stepdad does kill your brother? Won't that be worse than reporting him to the authorities?
