My brother doesn't leave me alone at all, he's always by my side annoying me or asking me to do something, hes only 5 but hes really making me stressed. Whenever im on the comp he comes and wants to play on it when i say no he goes and gets a stick to hit me with. He messes up the whole house and constantly calls on me from other rooms, he throws things at me too. All i want is some peace.

He looks up to you and wants your attention. Spend some time with him, but then tell him that you need your "alone" time too. Get him interested in something he enjoys, then you go do your thing.
He sounds like a little bully though...good luck darlin' , Marilyn

5 is old enough to know better than to hit with a stick. Are you babysitting him or something? Where are you parents?
Tell him if he will behave you will play a game with him or watch a movie with him. He probably wants some attention. Spend a couple of hours with him if he behaves. He probably looks up to you. You could have a lot of influence on him. Make it good influence. Take him to the library for picture books or easy readers if he can read. Get family pictures out and show him how to make a scrap book. Find something he can do to entertain himself for a while.

Well, you need to talk to your parents and then tell them that you are growing conerned over your brothers behavior. Kids will be kids, and we all know that siblings are quite a pain, but judging from what you have written, perhaps your brother should be taken to counseling to see if something is bothering him or if he needs to be put on medication. It is not ok for him to hit you with a stick . Perhaps you could have a family meeting and try to work things out. Good luck and hang in there.

He's just a child! Instead of playing on the computer, play with him! Kids are so active and if they have nothing to do then they will find something to do and that means bothering you! He's just being a child so don't be mean to him! His brain is not fully developed yet so play with him and use your time teaching him not to hit people.

find something for him to do... like show him something that really interests you (act all excited about it!) and then give it to him to be mesmerized for a while... then when he gets bored with that, find something else and do it all over again... you might have to repeat this 10-20 times throughout the day, but at least it will occupy his time and hopefully he won't hit you and call for you so much... he's just trying to get your attention-he's 5!
btw, how old are you?

Little kids are always like that. Set aside some time to play with him or something and try to establish behavioral standards around the house.

single out a time that you are willing to spend with your brother. Take a half hour to an hour out of your day to do something that he wants to do. Explain to him that this certain time that you pick is "his time" to spend with you. Also explain that after this time you spend with him that you really want some time for yourself. At 5 he should be able to understand this. Find something that he really likes to do and just spend some time with him. That's really all he wants. To be able to spend some one on one time with you. Take him to the park, play with his toys, watch his favorite movie, make something together. Just spend a little time with him. It won't kill you to show him that you care.

He wants to spend time with you cause he probably thinks your everything. My cousin was like that with me when she was that age. Try to get him friends his own age, so he can play with them and leave you alone. If he likes watching movies, pop one in that he would enjoy watching. If you have a lock on your bedroom door, lock him out. Or you could always wait till he grows out of it, but I doubt you'd want that.

Make a time to play with him, then try to explain to him now that you two have had time together he needs to play by himself. Or have your parents tell him to stop bothering you. They are the ones that need to be entertaining him.

It will sound silly, but treat him like a dag. He know you will not get made, well get mad and make sure he knows it. Ignore him for a week so that he can get something els to do. It worked with my brother..
