Dear Mr. Hunt,
My problem is that I can’t get on with my family . Relations between my parents have become difficult. They fight a lot, and I really don’t like it. It's the only communication they have. I don’t know if I should say anything to them about this. When they argue, it’s like a big, black cloud hanging over our home. Also, my elder brother is not very nice to me. He always refuses to let me watch my favorite TV show. Instead he watches whatever he wants until late at night. I don’t think this is fair. At home I always feel lonely and nervous. Is that normal What can I do

I hope things will be better for you soon.

I agree with Mr. Hunt’s advice because the parents will understand their kids and will not fight anymore after proper communication. And also, the brother will be nice to him if he explains his idea to his brother.
I disagree. The parents and elder brother may get even angrier as they may think that the writer is being disrespectful. They may feel that children should not comment on the behavior of their seniors.

3. Also, my elder brother is not very nice to me.
辨析：elder与older
elder 年纪较长的 只可指人 用来比较年龄大小,尤指兄弟姐妹的长幼关系,只能作定语。
older 年龄较大的 指人 在句中可作定语,也可作表语。
较旧的 指物 My younger son is five and my elder son is nine。
我的小儿子5岁，大儿子9岁。
Tom is two years older than I. 汤姆比我年长两岁。
4. Instead he watches whatever he wants until late at night.
1) instead 副词, 意为 “反而; 代替; 而不是”, 通常放在句首或句末，在句首时，常用逗号隔开。 e.g.
If we can’t go to Huashan, we’ll go to Xi’an instead.

无论我提什么建议，他都不同意。
I will do whatever you wish. 我会对你言听计从。
【注】
whatever引导的从句作主语,谓语动词用单数形式。eg：

5. If your parents are having problems, you should offer to help.
offer 动词, 意为 “主动提出;自愿给予;提供”。
