How can I get my brother to stop cracking his fingers?

My little brother always cracks his fingers and he wont stop. I’ve tried telling him he’ll get arthritis but he doesnt care. I then tried telling him he was basically dislocating his fingers and he still doesnt care! How can I get him to stop please? Its annoying, sounds horrible and im getting sick of it >:(

Answer #1

well the reason for him to be snapping his fingers is do to being anoyed or just trying to get noticed.what you can do is do something with him.

Answer #2

The above poster are absolutely correct. Your brother isn’t listening to your reasoning because your reasoning is completely false. If someone’s behavior annoys you, avoid being around that behavior. The attitude of ‘’I don’t like this so I have to put an end to it’’ is what leads to angry moms protesting a television show because they dared to show a nipple.

Answer #3

Getting arthritis by cracking your fingers is a myth. I have a problem cracking my fingers, too.. but the only damage done by it is annoying those around you lol.

Answer #4

??? You don’t get arthritis from that at all. When you crack your fingers you are merely compressing air which is caught in between joints from inactivity. People that type a lot or play piano find it near impossible to crack their fingers
