have you tried talking to him? he seems to want your attention or maybe he has another reason. but one of these days, you`ll have to sit him down and discuss this with him. he`ll grow out of it eventually. as siblings, you`ll have to put up with him for the rest of your life. might as well go through it as friends.

How old are you and how old is he? If he is beating you badly, you could tell your parents that you WILL call the authorities. You have a right if he is actually hurting you like giving you black eyes, bad bruises, or biting you and so forth. Maybe it would just take the police coming and having a talk to him to scare him into behaving. Now, are you instegating any of this? I mean, are you egging him on like teasing him or being immature and starting petty fights? If so, knock it out. If you start arguing, just leave the room and go to your room and lock the door and read a book or take a walk to avoid confrontation. Your parents need to realize that his aggressiveness could be a warning sign for more serious problems in the future. They could be doing a big service by stepping in now. I have a feeling that this a 2-way situation though and he is hitting you because you are making him mad and it's his way of dealing (although wrong) with anger like most boys. So if you are, just let him get his way and let him think he's right. I had the same problem growing up with a violent sister 3 years younger than me. However, I was just as much to blame. She would just deal with her anger by violence rather than words. She even chased me with a butcher knife, pushed me down the stairs and knocked the wind out of me with a baseball bat! She had a nasty temper and instead of avoiding a fight, I would keep on arguing till it escalated 'cause I wanted the last word or to be right. I should have just left the room before it got bad. I know it's tough. However, if he is beating you up for no reason, you should be concerned. And even if you are just as much to blame, he should not resort to physical violence and he could really hurt you if he has a bad enough temper. Maybe he should speak to a child psychologist and you could go in with him to see how you two can learn to get along. Try being nice to him. Offer to take him to the movies and buy him candy if he promises to be nice! Tell him you'll get him a favorite video game if he doesn't hit you for a whole month (and see if your parents will pay for it). I just don't know what to say. Ask again and give us more details like your ages, your home life (are you guys dealing with a lot of stress like your parents fighting or anything) and does he fight in school? YOUR PARENTS MUST TELL HIM THAT HE CANNOT HIT ANYONE ESPECIALLY GIRLS! I would seriously call the police if he leaves marks and see if they will just give him a scare and a warning. Just make sure that it is warranted and he isn't just lightly kicking or slapping you because that'd be stupid. Also, you don't want the kid to end up in juvie but just to get scared enough to learn to behave. Good luck. Remember there are TONS of kids out there being bullied by siblings, classmates, and even adult family members! You are not alone. I would call the boys and girls club hotline. They offer advice for kids and teens about such issues. Check and see if they have a website with the 800 # you can call. Once again, I wish you the best of luck.

Tell child protective services or school counselors or another close relative about your predicament. Your parents should not be allowing their children to fight or allowing your brother to beat anyone up. Stay away from your brother as much as possible until something is done to control his physical attacks on you. He obviously has a problem that needs immediate attention such as psychological counseling or anger management counseling.

Tell grand mom or grandfather, tell someone, anyone who would listen, have you talked to your dad? Just try and stay away from you brother. If no one would listen, tell your guidance counsel. I hope every thing turns out alright for you!

What i would do, considering i have a little brother, is first i would ask/tell him nicely to stop. If he dident I'd ask him stricter one more time. Then if he keeps up nicely say to your parents, could you please ask or tell him to stop? He's really annoying me...THEN if he kept it up i'd fight back with everything i have and if i got in trouble i'd explain to my parents that i asked him nicely to stop twice and also had asked them to tell him to stop. If they dont belive you hide a recorder in your pocket to prove you asked him nicely and that you asked them! Hope this helps!

Tell your parents that if they do not protect you that you
are going to start complaining to the authorities such as
Child Protective Services or the Police...

when your all together, in front of your parents tell him to stop it and ask your parents to intervene. if this not an option talk to someone you can trust to have a word with your parents on your behalf.

Talk to your teacher at school and she might be able to talk to your parents.
