My brother is Gay and my parents hate him!?
You are not going to be able to change your parent's minds. I would treat your brother like you always did. Be there for him if he needs you and let him know that you accept him as he is. That's more than anyone could ask for. If my parents asked me how I felt then I would tell them. I also would not hide the fact that you are seeing him or talking to him. They're the ones who are in the wrong not you or your brother. Good luck to you both.
My brother is always bossing me around. How can i stop him?
He Loves you thats why he does it. He wants to make sure your life is on the right track, and your always safe. I wish i had an older brother that did that for me. As you get older, i think he will ease up a bit. He thinks of you as his own daughter. Love him for it, not hate him for it. Your Lucky that you have one more person to love you!

What should I do when my brother hits me?
My Indian brother is the same. He was verbally and physically abusive and has slapped, punched , kicked me; called me a 'bitch' and much much worse. I've cut him off from my life and my heart. I no longer speak to him or acknowledge that he is alive and do not consider him my sibling. Your parents are cowardly. The typical Indian parents who favor the son and indirectly shift the responsibility for his violent behavior on to your head. Mine were the same. It's NOT your fault. Your brother has mental issues and he is venting on you, using you as a punching bag. Your parents are NOT protecting you as they should. By blaming you and not rebuking your brother, they are reinforcing your brother's violent behavior. My advice is IGNORE and STAY AWAY from him. DO NOT let him hurt you physically. STOP talking to your brother. PRETEND that he does not exist. Keep your interactions with him minimal. If he tries to start an argument with you DO NOT engage him, ignore him, go to your room and lock the door. Study hard, get a job and move out.
I have a feeling that my brother is in some sort of trouble but I'm not sure exactly what. He's always on edge, hardly speaks anymore, constantly looking around. How do I get him to talk to me about what’s going on?
So sorry this is happening in your family. Maybe you should tell your parents your fear of what is going on with your brother and talk with them about it. It’s really not something you want to let go for it could cause him more problems then he is now having. Hopefully, you can stay close to him and be there for him if he will open up and talk about what is going on in his life. But it is very important to get someone involved who can get him the help he is needing. If it is drug related he may be needing some outside help and your parents would be the ones who could help him find that. I commend you for being this close to your brother that you can see that he has changed and something is not right. Praying you have caught his problem before it totally takes over his life.
My brother is depressed. We're not close and he doesn't talk much. How can I help him?
Close or not close, your brother is your brother. You gotta go and talk to him. Remember depression is like a slow poison, and the worst part about it is, the person taking it is either unaware of it or can’t help himself or herself even if the person knows.Talk to your brother. In a way, that he gets comfortable sharing his thoughts and feelings without the fear of being judged. Most people don’t admit to it, because they are afraid of what people would think of them.I remember when I was depressed, which by the way went on for two to three years almost, I never wanted to wake up in the morning, in fact would not want to wake up at all most of the times. I would stay all night at times. I would stay sad all the time. I would lie on bed for hours and hours but not sleep. Wake up in the morning, but not get up from the bed for hours. And in those hours I’ll just think about wrong things happening. This impacted my work. I wouldn’t stay focused on any task for more than a minute. Became such a pessimist, won’t even plan for the future like as if the future doesn’t exist or won’t come at all. I would stay lost all the time(which could have many sort of consequences, like leaving the gas stove open, leaving the geyser switch on, iron on), with no desire to eat, drink, go out, dress well, talk to anyone be it parents, sibling or best friends or anything.I just wish someone around me could have paid just a little attention to tell me that there was something wrong happening.Your brother is very lucky that you have paid enough attention to see that he’s not in the right place.Remember, it’s very hard to get such people out, who have closed off. Because this means these people don’t want to confront their problem.You gotta figure out a way to get to him. Try to find out what is troubling him. At the same time, don’t sound pushy. If you are able to make him talk, half of the problem is solved. When he opens up, be sincere, listen to him very carefully. Don’t sound demeaning in any sense even you think that his problem is not that big a deal. And also don’t sound pitiful. Just let him know, that you are there for him, no matter what. Also take notice, if he’s having any suicidal/violent thoughts or not. Tread carefully in that case. Take a counselor’s help.And let him know, there is no shame in taking help.
Why do I feel guilt because my brother died?
Hello, my name is Victoria, I am the little sister of Corporal Marcus Stiles who was killed in the line of duty here in moncks corner, SC on march 25th 2007. He and his partner Lonnie wells were both shot in the head when they whent to go check out a domestic violence call.
