Is there something wrong with my little brother?

okay, my brother is 11. and I always thought he was a little weird. but recently hes been doing some pervish things. we found a sheet from a madlib game thing he bought once, and all the nouns and verbs and stuff were nothing but four letter words....

he's been watching the crappy shows on mtv and vh1, the ones about slutty girls and whatever else. whats worse, my dad stuck a smaller tv that was in the garage in a little room in the basement. my brother basically occupies it, and stays down there all day, and until about midnight, probably watching those retarded shows.

I hear him talking while watching tv saying stuff like d*ckity f*ckity b*itch and other things. on slips of paper next to my computer, I've seen his handwriting on it, saying stuff like breasts and lesbians and orgasm. ick.

I know when I was his age, I was curious about all that stuff, just curious. I'm not like him at all, neither is anyone else in the house. he's the only boy. but he's really creeping me out. he's only 11. I don't want him to be a perverted sicko when he's older. any advice on what to do would help.

The only thing you can do is talk to him openly about it. He's only eleven, so you can still influence him in so many ways.

You may also want to encourage him to make new friends maybe? Boys his age tend to copy this and that from his friends. Let him join a sports team, find him a new hobby, and he might forget about sex for a while.

Then again, you can't really change people.

I think your brother is just really curious!
haha. those shows aren't good for him, because he's really impressionable right now.
so if he sees people on tv doing stupid things, he'll think it's cool and he'll probably have it stuck in his mind..

I think the best thing to do is just talk to him about it, and see what's really going on with him..

I hope I helped(:

Sounds Like Trouble to me x

thanks. but theres another problem. he refuses to join sports. he has done basketball, baseball, but he gives up. he is turning into a slob, leaving food all over the house and especially in his private basement room. he weighs a little more than me, and im 14. me and my sister have tried talking him into something easy like soccer, but he just gets pissed off and leaves. I cannot convince him to do anything.

I would love some help with that too. we never really talk, I don't really get along with him, and he's not my favoritest person ever, but I don't want him doing stupid things.

He's just curious. Your parents shouldn't let him watch the show, but he's still going to be curious. I was writing dirty stuff on paper and doing the mad lib thing (except with sex words) when I was that old too. It's just one of those things.

Dear presto42,
He's allowed the TV, he's allowed to stay in his room, he isn't made to be social...and I'm assuming there isn't any consequences to things like not doing homework, staying up past curfew. You are not responsible for his behaviours but your parents are. I would show them what you have found and discuss with them you are concerned. He is heading for trouble and you're right to see this...he is not just curious but is exhibiting some red flag behaviours. If these are not dealt with now he will no doubt take a path downward.
Sue...good luck

I UNDER STAND YOUR CONSERN IM 14 AND I HAVE LITTLE KIDS AROUND ME a lot HES PROBLE GOING THROUGH A PHAZE.TALK TO HIM MAYBE PUT YOUR DIFFRENCES ASIDE AND TRIE TO GIT ALONG WITH HIM ACT LIKE HIS FRIEN AND TALK TO HIM ABOUT IT I WAS NEVER LIKE THIS BUT I KNOW SOMEONE WHO WAS AND TRY AND GET HIS MIND OFF OF IT.

GOOD LUCK

It is not up to you to do anything show your parents everything youve found and let them decide what the best thing to do is.
