I am not a man, but I had two sons going through puberty,
tell him it's unfortunate that he is so tall right now, but in a few years it will be a blessing. If you are not a sporty guy, that's ok.
Not everyone is. Your voice will come back, in the meantime
read a lot, study in school, grow academically, because if you
want to become an actor you need to read, remember your lines, have a good imagination. Study yourself in the mirror, make faces, like sad, happy etc. Just keep busy with the books

You have to stand up for himself, you don't have to do anything that you don't want to So your not into sports, a lot of guys aren't. You have one thing going for you, your tall.
Puberty last for such a short time, why not embrace it. You can go to Myspace.com and Youtube.com, and see what people think. Make a video and or web page, its free and see what people think ( about 70,000,000 people on them or more). Your sister believes in you, and I'm sure a lot of other people do too. Believe in yourself...
You need to graduate him into adulthood, make something up. Take him somewhere safe, and make him walk back a couple of miles. Cover him in mud, in the sun and him cut so many pieces of wood.
He needs to believe in himself, get him to stare at himself in a mirror and say to himself what he likes about the person in the mirror.
He has to talk, and be around positive people.
Good Luck

be a big sister to your brother and tell him that what he needs is to survive puberty because afterwards, everything will be all right. if he is in school, let him consult a guidance counselor or shrink. cheers!

the best way for him to handle puberty is to just go through it. why doesn't he find a male role model? like big brothers program? or someone who can mentor him.
