  • 1. Don't beat the crap out of him. 2. Stay calm -- lots of people have little brothers that make them crazy. 3. Avoid reacting too much to him. You don't have to respond every time he bugs you. You're older and can afford to be more mature. 4. Don't antagonize him. Believe it or not, someday you'll both be older and you'll be glad you have a brother. And you'll feel badly for all the times you said mean things to him, or fought with him for no good reason. Sorry its not easier growing up. EDIT ======================================== Anonymous: it's kind of hard to explain until you're a bit older, but these kinds problems are made complicated because they're caused by the *interaction* of two people, rather than just one person alone. Your brother isn't "making you mad", he does what he does and you react however you react. Then whatever you do causes him to respond, and so forth -- its an endless circle of reactions. Part of this reaction "cycle" is that sense of irritation that you get whenever he does something you think is stupid. When you are irritated, somehow it shows up on your face or in your actions, he sees that, and that makes him feel -- well, whatever it is that he feels, which then makes him do something else you don't like, and so forth. Got it? Its like a storm, it just swirls around endlessly. You can't control him. You can't make him be some particular way that you think he should be. But if you learn how to pay attention to your own irritation, and just let it go (don't act on it), that simple decision helps to break up the cycle a bit. Every time you do that, the wind speed in the storm drops somewhat. He'll do whatever he does, and chances are his behavior will change when your reactions change -- but you may still not like what he does. But you can solve the problem of your own irritation just by learning to keep letting it go. This takes time and effort, by the way. Don't expect an instant solution.
  • he's still a kid...But maybe you should suggest your mom not to spoil him too much..When he grows up,he'll change... Enjoy while you can still have someone to spoil..I used to act alike and my sister hates me so much.. My lil cousin is about 7 and he alredy know how to fire a gun..Tat's not so cute.. But don go ignore him all of the sudden,it'll make him feel miserable... And don kick the crap outta him..Just show him that you care and maybe ask some of your guy friends to play around with him..
