What should I do if my 14 yr old brother is physically pushing me and threatening to hurt and sometimes kill me when Im 18 yrs old?

Answer #1

buy a taser

Answer #2

Tell someone! Your brother shouldn’t be threatening you like that. Can’t you talk to your parents or somebody?

Answer #3

i was thinking more along the lines of mase.

Answer #4

My mom is home when this stuff happens. And she points the finger at me. She says Im older I should know better, but I do know better I never hit him back and I never raise my voice because I know he’ll just go crazy on me if i did plus honestly im scared. Hes been threatening my life and I take that seriously especially since he pushed me into my vanity today and cut my hand.

Answer #5

plus im 112 lbs. and hes almost 180lbs and hes younger. Guys are big on my side of the family.

Answer #6

Ask him what makes him what to kill you if he just keeps pushing you around you need to get him help immediately before he hurts someone or himself

Answer #7

I feel so pathetic like Im older I feel like I should know what to do. My mom isn’t even grounding him. If I ever said anything like that to him she would take everything away from me. Im moving out in August, but I honestly cant take another week of this.

Answer #8

No other family member that could maybe help you out? Your mom knows he’s threatening your life but doesn’t do anything? If it gets worse you need to tell someone and get help. Talk to your brother if you have to

Answer #9

Not really, most are out of state. Yes exactly, I think thats what hurts me the most. If my mom actually took action I would feel a lot better but she brushes it off and blackmails me. She says that if my dad comes home from afghanistan because of this they wont have the money to pay for college and help me with rent. Ive called the police station and they told me its normal, but I couldnt build up the courage to tell them he threatened my life.

Answer #10

Honestly if you have no one else to tell and if things get worse and if even talking to your brother doesn’t help, I think you should tell the police. That’s just not right what he’s doing

Answer #11

tell an adult

Answer #12

Okay im honestly going crazy. I cant find any help with a younger sibling abusing an older one. Its all vise versa. Not only have I had a conversation with both my parents. They both insist Im older and should just let him go. With out even an apology. My friends dont know how to react and my brother is already back on his video games. While I feel emotionally and physically brutalized. And it says 90% of authorities dont even respond to sibling abuse calls because its “natural.” Getting thrown into and desk and wall 3 times is not natural when I didnt evoke any sort of aggression.

Answer #13

Well stop listening to what ‘it’ says and call the authorities. If they refuse to listen try this, ask for a badge number and names. Tell them you’re going to write this down incase anything ever happens to you. If your brother hurts you, then they are responsible because they refused to take the report. Oh, and yes, you may have to leave home if your parents dont support you on this.

Answer #14

wow no offense but your brother is really messed up.i think u should tell him why the f** do u hate me so much im your brother !and then if hes still the same b patient and just move out and forget them they dont treat u as they should.

Answer #15

oh yeah btw I dont know if it came across clear.. but im a girl haha. Im his 18yr old sister.

Answer #16

i asked him awhile ago he had nothing to say. I dont think he really has an answer. He probably knows hes wrong. Yeah I think I might just do that. Thanks everyone. Your all being really really amazingly helpful and supportive!

Answer #17

show him whos boss tell him or show him tht ur not going to put up wit it. or u could tell him how its illegal n he could get in trouble. If u really d k then tell ur parents they will help

Answer #18

Put your foot down! you don’t have to hit him or actually shout but be firm with him and let him know what he’s doing is wrong. tell di authorities if you have to because obviously your mother isn’t going anything to help so i think the best option is to tell di police

Answer #19

last resort go to the cops you need help n they will help
