Help with my little brother?

Question

Well...this is gonna sound awkward, but here goes. My little brother(12) gets really embarrassed when he hugs me, because he most of the time gets an erection and well you know the rest... Now as her big sister, I think he wouldn't like it if I try to say something so he won't get so embarrassed, he even might get even more embarrassed. He tries to pull away really quickly and walks away. This didn't used to happen(but I get puberty kicking in) so he gets really fidgety if were still close after it happens. What can I do?

Answer 1

I GET ERECTIONS AT THE MOST EMBARESSING TIMES 2 COZ I WALK AROUND IN SHORTS IN FRONT OF MY MUM AND DAD AND I FIND THAT THEY R STICKING OUT QUITE A  LOT

TELL HIM THAT ERECTIONS R MOSTLY JUST 4 THE SAKE OF IT AT THE BEGINNNING OF PUBERTY BUT AS HE GETS OLDER SPONTANEOUS ERECTIONS WILL GET LESS FREQUENT

Answer 2

talking to him might be best, while it will be tough kids need to know that it's normal, and at his age they can happen for random reasons etc......

Answer 3

If you want to hug him, just hug him from the side or from behind.  Then you will not know if he has an erection and he will not be embarrassed.

Answer 4

first of all. HOW OLD ARE U? Maybe he doesn't feel comfortable talking to you because you are in ur early teens like 15 or so  OR perhaps its just cause he  is at that age where he is a little embarrassed.    second of all, it is a little confusing what you said in the 3rd  sentence. You said " Now as her big sister..."   I assume you mean as his big sister?  Again  what I meant when I asked your age is that if you are around 18 or older then he maybe more comfortable talking to you then if you are 14-18 because he may feel your older and can understand and wont laugh at him.  Talk to him but in a way he will understand.  Tell him or ask him why is he pulling away?  Does he want to talk to you about it?  Maybe loosen up the tension by making a joke and saying something  when he pulls away like WHATS WRONG IS IT ME DO I HAVE BAD BREATH or something like that and see if that sorta breaks the ice and make him more comfortable. If that doesn't work then there are a few ways to deal with the situation.  1) TALK TO HIM AND TELL HIM HE IS GOING THROUGH NORMAL TIMES AND YOU ARE A GIRL BUT GIRLS AND BOYS CHANGE AT THAT AGE OR SO AND IF HE WANTS TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT ANYTHING THEN YOU WILL TRY TO BE AS OPEN AS POSSIBLE AND ALWAYS WILL BE THERE TO HELP HIM AND LOVE HIM AND WONT EVER LAUGH.   2) JUST IGNORE IT AND GIVE HIM TIME AND MAYBE HE WILL EVENTUALLY OPEN UP.  Hope I have been of some help. Im an older male and was a guy that age once myself so things are awkward at that so if you need more help or advice then feel free to email me .  GOOD LUCK.

Answer 5

tell him to not b embarraed about it cause he just started puberty so that it can happen 4 random reasons, not just thinking or looking at a hot girl
