not sure if I love my litttle brother

my younger brother takes annoying to a whole new level. he constantly insults me, calling me fat. I try not to take these stupid insults serisouly, but sometimes they really hurt. he does everything in his power to make my life miserable. he’ll barge into my room, annoy me until I turn off the t.v. so he can play video games, throw food at me during dinner and so much more. he also can’t sit still, or chew with his mouth closed. this one time on the way to the beach he poked me for an hour. my little brother also likes to make stupid noises. he points out all my faults constantly. 

   even with this I still stick up for him, help him with homework, and play with him. he's ten years old and you would think he would just mature one of these days. for some reason he idolizes my older brother even though my older brother beats him up on a daily basis for sometimes no reason at all. 
 as you can see, my little brother deffinately does not win the best younger brother of the year award. I started to think why I loved him and truth to be told I couldn't think of anyreason. I know he's my brother and all, but there's nothing good about him. (trust me I thought for hours trying to come up with something, but didn't). this truly frustrates me.  I'm not asking for tips (though I wouldn't mind some), just how to find good in him. is it right to love a little brother just because he's my brother?

Answer #1

& never hit. hitting shows the children that its ok to hit. & one day, he will hit you twice as harder as you did to him, trust me. even though its hard, you have to learn to deal with it. what are you going to do when you end up having kids one day? you’re going to tell them to fuuuck off too? you need to have patience with kids.

Answer #2

logic does not help with children. next time he does something to you, grab his head and hit it on the wall, they deny everything. I have the same problem as you.

Answer #3

brothers will always annoy you once he hits puberty he will find something better to do then annoy you. As for playing with him and helping him with homework tell him your not going to anymore unless he stops what he is doing to you . But yes no matter what he does whether there is no good in him at all you love him cause he is your brother and if something bad were to happen to him you would still be his sister. hope I helped you

Answer #4

first off you need to talk with your parents because NONE of that behavior is acceptable. and that includes your older brother the fact that it happens tends to say a lot. I dont agree with hitting (I grew up with 4 siblings) but maybe if they spanked him or took away his freedom and games he might see oh gee thats a bad thing. you REALLY need to talk to your parents about it though . as for loving him… tough question my sister and I did not get along at all when whe were younger only now that I moved out are we getting along. you might not feel like you love him but ask yourself this. if you knew someone was going to kill him how would you feel? thats an extreme but if you think about it seriously and answer it honestly you will have an answer. be ready to live with that knowledge though if it is not an answer you expect.

Answer #5

wow. sounds exactly like my brother. except my brother will be 13 march the 2nd. has your parents ever thought of taking him to the doctors & giving him a check up or something? my brother has adhd, & he is consistently hyper. that almost sounds like what your brother has as well. its attention desperate hyperactive disorder. its the sugar that makes their mind embalanced. you should talk to your parents about that. he is just looking for attention. you need to give him the patience & just go along with it. than he will be like arrrggg, this isnt working! I want to make her mad & he will end up giving up.
