I'm just getting my first job and I'm 19. But then again my family isn't really in need of my work.

Yeah you should just school him and make him fear you. Also take away his internet in a month he won't remember it exists.

Makes me appreciate that my brother is a nice guy.

Perhaps talk to your parents about it. Maybe they will consider straightening him up in some way if you think it would work out, 16 years old is definitely an age to get his shit together. I`ve never really been in a similar situation fortunately so I`m just guessing what could be done.

Well it seems like his parents avoid confrontation at all costs, that's how he got like that.

OP you basically have to be his dad, and he won't except it until you show him that you are boss. With him violence will be a scary realization and a huge shock, he should straighten out.

You need to get to a point where he cringes in fear when you raise your voice/hand.

I would say, ask your parents to have a sitdown with your brother. Just ask them to tell him that he needs to stop acting so self-centred, and get him to understand your and their own situation. You're a family, and you have to be supportive of each other.

I would generally not advocate violence. But if your parents can't or won't talk to him themselves, then you'll have to somehow force him to sit down for some man to man talk about how to behave himself. Don't start going crazy and punch him or anything, but just pin him to the ground or something and talk some sense into him.

but its the family business...


Eh, it can be a family business. That doesn't mean he wants to work there?

I have worked at a corner store before, and the only reason they hired me was because their son didn't want to work there at the family business. It is normal, even if its really fing rude. I'm not excusing the rest of his behaviour in the least. But you can't for someone to get a job while they are young. Well not and expect good results.

I think my parents just think this is a phase, but he's been acting this way for nearly 4 years now, and its starting. Like my mom and dad will lay down the law of the land once it gets to a certain point, but only at that point

MAYBE JUST MAYBE I'm wrong to be so pessimistic and maybe he'll grow out of it, but the way he acts and continues to act it really feels like his maturity has stunted

He's 16. There no trick that's going to suddenly make him into a good brother. You can hit him, go to your parents, or try to be Junior Dad, but in the end the change is going to have to come from him. You can't just force people to be what you want them to be. Tame your resentment, and don't focus on his short-comings because you're just going to fruitlessly frustrate yourself. Just work on being a good brother yourself, you'll be a whole lot happier.

Yea dude 16 is just a teenager, thats what they do man.

Just give it some time, he'll mature. And deep down, he'll always feel bad/ashamed of the things he did.

Or if you're korean, just beat the shit out of him. yell at him in korean. repeat until better.

This. Everyone commenting about "hit him blah blah blah". Shit aint going to work at all. Hes a stubborn "teenager" and judging the way he acts now i gaurantee he wont change until hes near his mid 20's

My advice would be to just bear with it for a few mores years. Protect your sister and forget about your brother. Until he can show self growth you will be wasting your time and end up hating him even more. If you can't do this then I suggest making sure no one gets him shit and to tell people at school what he is really like. Nothing can change a guy better than a little embarrassment.

I used to be addicted to dota man, and let me tell you, you can't reason with these people. I can totally relate to your brother, logging to garena or tda, pub stomping with 4 "dota buddies" probably meant the whole world to him.

If you want to change him to a loving son, a good brother and a responsible human being, you have to make him quit dota, and to do that, you have to change his lifestyle, get him a job, get him a girlfriend, go outside, anything that can get his mind off that game. It took me 2 years to quit and after I realized how much I have missed out on the real world, and I am still catching up to this day.

HELP YOUR BROTHER, STOP HIS ADDICTION BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!!!

Or you can do this:

Install WC3 yourself.
Find out his nickname, and once you find that out, follow him when he joins a game
Feed the other team1

Watch & laugh at him in misery.
