J. Cole's album, The Off Season, dropped today, and I've been grooving to it since morning. That album is fire.

Maybe if you treat him like a man he might just show you he is capable of being one.. from your talk he is doing well in school which goes to show his faculties are intact but there is something that triggers his forgetfulness.

Maybe you.

Hello,

Nothing is wrong with your brother, in fact, me and Him we are exactly the same thing.

What mainly causes it is contact imagination and thinking. While imagining alot of things, you froget somethings that you are supposed to do. During the imagination, you keep postponing what you are supposed to do till you forget.

One of the remedy is to give him list, use a to do list.

Best of all encourage him to do what he is suppose to do immediately he remembers it.
