How can i improve my brother's attitude?

I’m seriously sick of it he is 19 , he is always so mean, has a bad temper and is so disrespectful to my mom!! When he gets mad at her he calls her a dumb A@# a stupid A&8 a Bit&h and every bad word you can think of. Idk i feel like he has changed!! When we were little he was never like this. And when he loses his temper and his anger gets over the top!, he gets violent! he hits pushes, punches and its getting out of control. I wish their could be something i can do. Ive had to call the police on him 2 times already for his behavior and once he pushed his girlfriend and she hurt her mouth and he got arrested already. He spent a couple of days in jail, i was sad but i knew he had to learn his lesson… which he didnt because he is still the same. I told one of my teachers what was going on and she told me i should call child protective services but idk, then i asked my super close librarian at school and she thinks my mom needs to stand up and kick him out of the house. I want to HELP him but i don’t know how help?

Answer #1

He is still at home?Kick him out.He needs to get on his own two feet,life can’t be handed to you on a silver platter.He sounds like he has anger issues.Or is stressed out.You could try and talk to him about how you feel about his outrages.Maybe he would have a break through and have some sympathy for you and your mom.It isn’t cool or nice for him to treat his family or girlfriend badly.So if he doesn’t show sympathy talk to your mom about throwing him out for your own safety and his own good.I know you would like to help but sometimes these thhings just can’t be helped by a single person.Talking to your mom is a good idea.They also have free legal advice centers.Talk to your local church if you are not atheist and they can give you the number probably.You and your mom can go talk to them and see what they would have to say about your brother.Good Luck.

Answer #2

I once noticed a similar change in a very good friend who had always been non-aggressive, well behaved and very polite. He suddenly started to use foul language, throw his weight around, and generally be unpleasant company. Though at that point at appeared he was not really fully aware of how bad he had become.

I told him I felt that something was wrong because he was behaving like a totally different person and asked him if anything was troubling him.

He almost immediately broke down, and actually cried. He told me all his problems ….. (there were many, including that he himself was being badly bullied both physically and emotionally and that he felt he just could not cope with it anymore),

Talking the matter through with him seemed to help immediately as far as his “attitude” was concerned, and he cut back dramatically on the aggression and bad language. But it took a lot of effort from several people to help him sort out the underlying problems in his own life.

Your brother may have similar problems, so I hope you all don’t follow the Librarian’s advice and have him kicked you (at least not just yet).

If you try to find out what (if anything) is bothering him, you may be able to help him revert to his previously amiable personality.

Answer #3

depends is it caused by like anything mental or physical or anything hes not getting enough of did he lose a relationship did he have a nervous breakdown is he just being a mean person is he failing classes anything to bother him in that way?

Answer #4

umm he broke up with his long time girlfriend a couple months ago and my mom thinks that probably affected him but idk.

Answer #5

I agree, I had the same problem about a year ago…it happens when you just bottle things up and don’t tell anyone about it. Everyone needs someone to talk to at some point no matter how strong you are.
