Like say he is really evil and will stop at nothing to hurt you every chance he gets. If you have some dirt that could put him away, would you turn him in?

No actually I didn't -- I stopped having anything to do with him, at all, none!
My sister called the other day to tell me he and his wife had just had another baby boy, I didn't even sent congratulations to him
This last time was that proverbial straw that broke the camels back as far as I'm concerned.

If he has broken the law, yes, turn him in for his own sake if not for yours. If he's that evil, he's headed for a miserable life. And that's going to affect the rest of the family too.
I suggest you talk to your school counselor to get some outside perspective, as well as your parents. If your parents know what he's doing (if it's illegal) and haven't called the police, they are irresponsible. They mean well maybe, but they're doing the wrong thing. So, be the responsible one in the family. They will be mad at you, but it will be better in the long run.

That depends on what you mean by "hurt you"-- if you are saying that he is violent and has caused you or others bodily injury, then he clearly needs help and or possible incarceration. If you mean that he inflicts emotional cruelty on you then he needs psychiatric help and you should have a family sitdown to air your concerns. Are you the sole target or are there others that he torments.? A certain amount of "evil" is to be anticipated in older sibs, so be careful to assess the situation dispassionately and respond accordingly. Good luck. My siblings mean the world to me and it always saddens me when others don't have the same benefit of these relationships.

No, I wouldn't. Blood is thicker than water. What are you getting out of turning him in? Check your motives for that. Are you prepared to deal with how angry he's going to be if and WHEN he gets out?
Prison and jail allow a person to have a LOT of time to sit and think about how they're going to get even if they resent the way they got there...
Snitching him off about something he has done or is actively doing might not be of any benefit to either one of you since generally, if you really want to, a person CAN find out who informed on them...
Have you considered family counseling?

Well obviously, if he's going to harm you, then yes.
If he's just a brat, I'd just ignore him and deal with it because I know when he's older, he's gonna fail miserably in life.
But if it's something serious like sexual harassment or ethical issues, then definitely yes.

Yes, if he is as bad as you say he is. . . When you say evil, like how do you mean?? One person can only be expected to take so much from someone who is mean and evil...Yes, I would do what I have to do to keep myself safe. . . .
