Why does my brother get treated better?

Okay my brother is ten and im 14 and he always gets treated like he is better than me,
like when I was 9 he threw a water gun at my head and he got timeout for 5 minutes actualy he got up at three minutes and didnt even get in trouble and I got grounded for 4 weeks.
or when he jammed my middle finger I got in trouble not him even though he kicked me.
or in the car he will stick his tongue out at me and flick me off and sh!t and my mom will yell at me she is all like your older you should ignore it but it pisses me off how am I suppose to ignore it.
why do I get treated like sh!t and he gets treated like he was heaven sent?

I know it is realy hard to ignore something like that ... it is the same way at my house ..
my dad went out and bought him a 4-wheller and wont even take me to the mall to but some clolths ( I only have 2 shirts and 3 pairs of jeans )

Wait, He threw a water gun at you and you got grounded for 4 weeks without even doing anything?

Omg. Mabe the next time he does something and your mom yells at you tell her that you didnt do anything and you get yelled at for no reason and if it takes her so long to see your brother is the main one causeing the problems she should open her eyes!!

well maby it has sumthin to do with being a teen mom?
im not judging.
but some parents look at there children but they refuse to admit it but thats just how it is. sucks but yeah

I know how you feel. Growing up I had two younger brothers. One was four years younger and one was ten years younger. During certain situations I would always get in more trouble than my younger brothers, when their behavior seemed to be worse than mine.

Now that I am older I see that my parents just expected more out of me, because I was the oldest. The yonger kids usually just get away with more because they are younger than you... Your parents dont mean to favor them or make you feel bad, but they have to discipline you in a different way than your younger brother, because you both are different ages!

Dont feel bad! Once your a little older and so is your brother it will start to change!

It's probably because he is younger than you and because he is a boy. I was the younger child and I got away with murder. It's also expected of boys to be rough and tough. ( 'Oh he threw something at you?, he's just being a boy') I don't care what people say, the sex that you are def. matters. It's also expected of you, being the older child, to know better.

I was the exact opposite. I was a little daemon to my sister but even when she would do something to me my parents ALWAYS yell or smacked me around a bit.
