So my brothers ruining everything..

Buy him a Wii so HE can mess is own stuff up. You can watch him hit himself in the face with a Wiimote ;)

My kid knew to stay away from the electronics at age 7, and she even had her own gameboy so there is no reason he can't learn his lesson. There are things called parental controls that you could set and make it so he can't get on there without your code or permission so you could go that route. That way you can't really get in trouble for that. Also high shelves or a mini footlocker to store your games in my be a good investment.Lostboy1224

I'm confused. Is the shelf/footlocker for his 360, or his brother?

I can see him turning into a brat when he's older. He also doesn't go to school and stays home schooled, but he doesn't do his studies so he's already behind.

He doesn't have any friends .. ANY. And the thing with my parents most is if he doesn't get it then he get's all whiney and bratty and miserable, then it makes my mom miserable, then if my mom miserable she gets angry at just about anything, including me for no reason. That get's me angry, then the hole days just ruined cause of him.

Maybe you should talk to your father about putting him in school because, if he was in school and had friends maybe he wouldn't be messing around with your things. Otherwise, he will probably grow up to be anti-social and not have the skills or education a job requires. You should also have a talk with your father about the way your mother is treating you because that isn't normal...

honestly you have to show him who is boss, he needs to almost fear you. He needs to respect you and your belongings and if he doesnt, make him know that there are serious repurcussionschaoscougar1

Homeschooling doesn't help with keeping up. Honestly, I'd like to have a chat with your parents. If you convince them to, have 'em post it in off-topic.

Yeah it does, it's basically like having a private tutor. You advance much faster then kids in school. I was counting past 100's when i just turned 3.

You also finish work much faster

He's probably only doing it because so many people are telling him not to. The way I see it you could either tell him that he can play it if he wants to, or you can start playing the PS3 that you gave him.

Just put a lock on your door, why would your dad remove the lock? Guys need privacy in their lives, I don't know what I'd do without this lock on my door. If you want, give him the legitimate reason for it, and that's because your brother is messing with your **** He should understand.

Kids shouldn't miss out on the social dynamics of school though. Learning to make friends and respect other people is an important part of growing up and essential to school life, not to mention it sounds like your bro needs some peers who want hesitate to call him a dick when he acts like one. He might even make a friend...

For everything of yours that he breaks, break two of his. Show him what he's done to your property, then get something of his and break it in front of him. Inform him this will continue to happen as long as he disrespects your property. This will prompt some wailing and crying and stick to your guns and tell your parents that is how it will be done until he learns to respect your property.

I'll give you an example. When I was still at home my younger sister never cleaned up after herself. I'd come home and find her dirty dishes with food still on them left on the counter. I'd ask her to clean it up, rinse them off and put them in the dishwasher. She'd mouth off. Ok, you will learn the hard way. She went to bed later that day and guess what... All of the dirty dishes were piled up under her blankets littered all over the place food and all. I informed her that everytime I find them left in the sink they will go into her bed. Problem solved.

My Grandad operated the same way. At dinner if you didn't eat your supper you wore it. Any complaints, whines etc, plate was picked up and dumped on your head and you sat there for the duration of supper.

just hide the power cord...and your discs too...

....That is probably the stupidest thing I have ever heard for many different reasons.

No it works quite well. Much better then liberal hippy ignore all outburst attitude and put them in the corner ignoring them until they get bored political correctness that infected current times.

Yeah, this crap is getting to where it's child abuse if you yell at your kid. Whatever happened to a trip to the wood shed? (and my grandpa's technique was: eat it now, or it eat out of the trash later.)

Make up a story, tell him that you will hire the Boogeyman if he keeps touching your stuff. Then if he keeps doing it dress up like the Boogeyman and beat him up a little, not enough to hurt him just enough to scare him. Then he will be scared to death to touch your stuff.

ZOMG i have the same problem but itts my big bro who dosnt give a **** about any of my games he brojke mw2 i locked my live with a passcode and he beat me to death and i had to give the code to him cause of parents man im in same trouble. i was on 2.64 on cod k/d and he got it down to 0.98 in a day.

make him cry, scream in his face.

arrange for a kidnapping. he'll cry and crap his pants. that spells revenge to me

Move out.

Lock your xbox with the passcode, hide your games and stuff in your room, lock your door to your room and carry a spare paperclip with you to unlock it at any time. (not sure if you have that type of lock on your bedroom doors, I do.)

So a few months ago he completely ruined my mw2 k/d. I got over that. So I started buying him games on my ps3, now he stills goes on my xbox 360 to play left 4 dead 1 and 2, and he leaves all my disc out.some of my discs have cracks in them now. He's ruining my saves, and I really feel he's about my break my headset which I just spent 140$ on. He's been doing this for months no matter how many times me or my parents tell him not to go on he always goes on. If I put a lock he'll get pissed and do something with my stuff. My parents don't seem to be punishing him, just telling him to get off when he's on. but then he just sneaks right back on... Even when we say no xbox 360 for a day or two still.. he goes on. -.- I just don't know what to do.. any ideas before he breaks anything else? This is starting to get me extremely frustrated.

i would have end up smacking the mess out of him then maybe throw him like to see he come in my room again

Wow. Him breaking the ps3 makes me concerned about your 360. Let's take a different approach here. Get rid of your 360 so no one games. Watching him suffer would make not playing for a while almost enjoyable. :PRoslindaleOne

So I didn't let him play my xbox 360.. And now I'm suspended from the xbox 360 for a week. Seriously?Wakanoid

suspended by who?

Now that he broke the PS3, you ought to calmly explain to your parents that he already broke 1 large investment of yours and you don't want the kid to ruin another. Or, you could put the kid in a box and ship him to Siberia.

Haha, I live in Ontario. Man, on top of this I'm sick and I get to deal with this crap.Wakanoid

Having had an older brothder whose stuff I wanted to get into, only one thing kept me from doing it. He beat my ass. If I told on him, the next time we were alone, he beat me harder. I'm not encouraging you to do this, just saying, it is what worked on me.

I dont get why your Parents are so hard on you but so lax on him, it just doesnt make sense. He breaks one of your things, you try to stop him from breaking a second, you are no longer aloud to use the second and the brother is. Either we're not getting the full picture or your parents have some serious serious discipline issues.

If its the second situation, I would just look forward to the day you have enough money to move out and leave that crap behind.
