The first question is ...Why is he living at Grandmas in the first place? Obviously something happened that required Grandma to have to step in and raise the child. Obviously he is not an orphan because you mention Dad and how well he is treated there. There is more to the story than you are telling and to be able to give you any "good" advice the whole story needs to be told.

this is a complicated question as your perception could be wrong but there are some red flags. I have a 4 year old and a 6 year old and they both still needs naps in a big way. I do agree with you that he is too old for a bottle and the chalk incident seems a bit extreme but not necessarily abusive.If you really feel he is spanked inappropriately and his physical or emotional safety are in jeopardy then you need to call family and children's services and have them investigate. This will likely not make you popular with your family but if a little boy;'s safety and well being are at stake then do what you have to do. Perhaps you can discuss the situation with your teacher or guidance counsellor at school and get their take on it before you launch an serious investigation that could result in criminal charges against your grandma

You are right in the fact that a 3 year old really doesn't "know better," not to even mention that toilet training in itself can be a real trial - and frustrating for everyone involved. I recommend that you speak to your Dad about this. If that doesn't work then speak to a guidance counselor or a teacher at school about this problem. It may just come down to the fact that your little brother is just too much for Grandma to deal with. I'm sure she loves both you and your little brother very much - but her patience wears thin easily.

My son is 3 years. I admire you for taking care of your little brother as i could only imagine how it would affect him being treated in this way. It sounds like your Grandmother might find it more of a burden than a blessing having her grandson living with her. I know how full on it is raisiing my son alone and can only imagine if my mother had to do it. I send lots of love to all of your family.

He's a baby and you sound jealous because you are not the center of attention anymore.
Get over yourself!

You need to talk to an adult. Either your father or someone at school some one who will listen and protect him.
