PFor your brother’s suicidal thoughts he must be taken to a psychologist/ counsellor immediately. You can try the free helplines if you can’t afford the private therapists. These issues in family life are solvable, it is not the end of the road.

Show gratitude towards your wife, appreciate for all the things that she’s been doing for you. Whatever you expect from her, do towards her. She will have a change of heart. But the change begins from you.If you still find it is not possible to continue with the marriage do the following;

PYour mother knows about his infidelity. The community around you, your relatives and all those who are working in the hotel or known to your father/ his family are aware of his conduct. Unless and until your mother takes a bold step forward nothing much can happen. She is keeping quiet because that’s what most women do. She has fear of getting divorced or separated from your father because she’s fearful of your future, your roti, kapda, makhaan, education, your prospective marriages especially your sister’s. Hence she’s keeping quiet.Only way that you can support here is concentrating on your life, your education and setting your personal goals. Once you are independent, you can help your mother. Remember your flight attendant saying, ‘If you are accompanying a child, first help yourself before helping your child to put on the oxygen mask’. You cannot save anyone else if you are not saving yourself first. You are obsessing over his infidelity and as you have mentioned, you’ve not done well in the exams when you saw his illicit messages. Stop on your track and reflect. Set goals for yourself. do exercise, meditate, learn something new, achieve whatever you want to as your father is still paying for your sustenance.
Meanwhile find out an active women’s organization for your mother to be part of. Something where she doesn’t feel out of place. Where she can gel with the peers. It can be a small group of people who are doing some charity work. Somewhere she can develop the courage and get bold to face the storm. You also encourage her to take part in social events in your community or family actively. If there is any chance or any means through which she can earn (even if it’s a small amount) something that empowers her, encourage her to do that. You will definitely see a difference. This may take few months or years.
Talk to her when you feel she’s ready about handling your father. Convince her to file for Divorce & Maintenance cases and Domestic Violence Case asking for shelter and protection orders.
