I say, enjoy your little brother as long as you can. you are his mentor and looks up to you for a different type of guidance, than his father. my brother is eight years older than myself, so i understand your question. i followed my brother everywhere, until his first date. that did it. no more brotherhood. this will not last long and the memories you make, will last you a lifetime. you can't change his habits. you are his big brother and you should be proud. maybe, you need to take some time and rethink your question. very soon, the day will come, when you and your younger brother go separate ways. you may not understand my answer now, but given some time and maturity, you will say "now, i understand what that answerbag man meant". wait and see.

Well I'm not sure how old either you or you're brother are, so I'm going to take a guess at school age. Firstly can I say that you should look at this as a positive thing? You're younger brother has a great interest in you, and wants to learn from you. He also considers you his closest and most trusted friend, so go easy on him. Learning is a powerful tool and the way children learn is to observe and copy others. Children find this easy, doing so with other children their own age. You are asking how you can change some of his habits, and may I guess get him off your back! The good news is as you both grow older, your interests change. Also do your level in intellect. You’re at a faster learning level than your brothers. So naturally, the interests will start to go their own ways and most likely already have. You might wish to encourage this by taking the time to introducing your brother to "other" interests. Part of his learning, is observing, "how" you learn. Teach him that skill, and he will start to develop that with things that take his interests, not yours. There is a down side however, little brothers are great fun to play with, and some time you might wish he was still part of your game, so don't get rid of him all together

Take him to friends houses more often. Or tell him to do his own thing.

oppps i was suppose to comment put ill put an answer a brother bound is a very important thing my cousin is like my brother he lives with me and is only 6 mothns older so where the same age and we've been together since we were born and well even if all your friends walk out on ya your bro will be there for ya no matter what

I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN!!!

explain to him why it's important to have some amount of independence,and my little cusin dose the same thing it is so anyoying.you have to remind them that everyone needs space and that it is stressfull when you dont get that.

I have a little brother that is two years old, so he doesn't really understand much yet. But I also have an older brother. I used to follow him every where, and I'd just want to be with him all the time. I got over it, but depending on how old your brother is now, it might take time. It can be very annoying, I know. But you can just do things he likes... Nothing extreme, just play with blocks... If he's young. If he's a little older, just play catch with him or something, and it won't be as annoying or boring.
