My Brother


Question Posted Tuesday February 1 2005, 10:14 am

my parents won't stop telling my 11 year old brother he has to be more like me( I'm 13). more sensible, get amazing grades and be less immature. but afterwards he takes it out on me by just being horrible and grassing me up in front of my parents, and making things up about me and spreading runours. He acts like he really hates me and this is worse than just normal sibling fights. i don't know what to do because i never asked my parents to keep going on at him like that. we're not close anymore and he acts like he really hates me. I don't know what to do.

That's a toughy and I have the same problem. Your parents are the people to go to first on this one, because your brother is going to be tougher to get to. Tell your parents that you appriciate their graditude, but they need to let your brother be his own person, honor student or goofball. Also request that they stop using you as an example. Since this might not go into effect with your bro right away, you might want to get to him, also. A good way to do this is "bend" the rules a little when your around him. What I mean is say you go shopping with a buddy. While you're at the check out, buy you're bro his fav candy bar and say to him, "Hey, I saw this at the mall and I decided to pick it up for you." That way you won't seem like a suck-up sis that he can take advantage of. I totally hope it works out because someone who seeks advice to get closer to a brother really deserves a happy ending!!
