I starting sceraming at him.... I didnt know thier was any money for me to be given. Anyways thats just one recent argument we had but we get in lik 20 arguements a day is this normal for brothers our age i am 14 he is 16.

Answer 1

This is normal but totally frustrating.

I have a older sister, only 14months.  We fight constantly I am now 20 and she is 21.  Somedays we're best friends and I know she has my back and I have hers, especially when we find a "common enemy" ie. our parents when we were teenagers.  

We fight even now, she'll still try and rat me out to my parents, even though we're both adults. She can be downright mean sometimes and I have to just let it go and walk away.  my personality isn't a "fight back" too often.  

Our recent argument was over her thinking it was stupid for me to order a family pizza meal on-line vs. on the phone and it wasn't "fast enough".  so I understand the stupidity of arguments too. She walked out and said "don't order me food, than came back after it was delivered going where is my food??"  I have learned her well enough to know she would do that, so i had ordered her food... but it's still annoying.

Siblings can drive you craaazzzzyyyyy  and as a younger sibling i know they always think they know more than you do.  why, i don't know because I've learned far more from her mistakes than she has.  

You can try and talk to him, and it might work for a little while but you'll always fight.  Doesn't help going through high school time either.  But do know that he does love you, and will have your back.  

Sometimes best thing to do it walk away and go punch the mess out of your pillow, i wouldn't recommend anything like a wall... ha ha

I doubt this helps...  but i tried

Answer 2

Personally I do not think it is normal.  You should realize though that you are younger than him so we wants to pretend he is smarter or better.  I think that if you really care you should sit down and talk to him about the fights and how it makes you feel. He might make fun of you to pretend that he does not care but I can gaurantee you that he will care and he will try to make things different.  Also try to cool off when he does something mean to you, tell him how you feel and ask him to please be nice to you.  I hope this helps you and him!

Answer 3

Answer 4

Answer 5

yea its normal my brother and i fight like every hour.. and im 14 n hes soon 2 be 17 too. dont worry

Answer 6

Sure it's normal.  I fought with my brother all the time growing up and now we never fight and enjoy the times we see one another.  I have three girls of my own now and they fight as well.  Some days are great and everyone gets along fine...there there are other days when the fighting can really be bad.  Try taking a deep breath before you fly off the handle at something stupid that he has said or done.  Sometimes that will work to stop a fight...sometimes it won't.  Good luck.
