((((( Everyone ))))) for the replies.

There is no family left that could take care of him, just my girlfriend and myself. I could put him in foster care, but I'm not very trusting of foster care and child services, and I think it would be too much for him.

As for what my brother did to him, it looks like he had been beaten up a couple of times. He's told me about it but social services are doing their best to make sure nothing else happened.

I talked with the social services today and they said they want to talk with me again tomorrow morning, they spent most of today talking with my nephew. I'm very proud of him for handling all of this so well. Tomorrow is his Birthday and once I get back from social services we will celebrate. Thank you for the continued support everyone!
