Re: Brother
BUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Sorry, the thought of a 17 year old who respects women is deeply amusing to me. You may have a chance of getting him to respect women in his early or mid 20s, but NEVER at 17.
Re: Brother
If a child is raised the right way, with the right sort of education and environment, than anything is possible. My brother respects his sisters a lot, im teaching him how to extend that and understand that girls other than his sisters have family members who also care about them. So far, so good, he understands…il be damned if my brother turns out to be a nitwit of a guy and my mother would turn in her grave if i raised him any differently.
Re: Brother
but u see, im more than just his sister, i’v practically brought him up, i have this inate ability of wanting to protect him from all things evil. Some of his mates are scared of me as i stick up for him and tell them off when they hurt him during football matchs!!
Nobody picks on my brother 
Re: Brother
A 17 year old’s family sees one thing, his associates see another.
Re: Brother
his associates are very easily bribed..teenage boys are so gullible and very ready to give information when an older, very sexy lass like myself asks nicely, i dont even have to be too evil 
Re: Brother
How can teenage girls be evil to boys?. What are you scared of?.
Re: Brother
Using your feminine wiles against 17 year old kids? 
CRADLE ROBBER!!! :yukh:
Re: Brother
He's 17? lol at your shock and reaction I thought the boy must be 12. MM if hes 17, then he should know what hes doing. But warn him about the hassles of girls and relationships at that age. As long as he doesnt get seriously involved at such a young age, if hes just flirting then its ok IMO.
Re: Brother
Funny story…family in Paki embassy recently moves here from Pakistan, they have a chubby kid whos about 12 I think. At one dinner I happened to be sitting next to him and the whole time hes txting deeply concentrating on his phone, so I thought Id tease him and said, “are u txting your girlfriend ?” and very seriously he replied “yes” I was like coz i wasnt expecting the reply! and then I asked, whats her name? And hes like “Tracy”…I was like dayam…a gori on top of that!
Re: Brother
yes, but how to warn him without sounding too motherly? i don't mind him flirting as long thats all he does...
17 is young, remember males are 3 years behind.
i can remember 17 year old boys at school, and they are rude vile little things!!
Re: Brother
kids grow up so fast these days!! what ever happened to innocence in teenagers? girls dress like women, boys talk and do things men do…i dont get it? whats the hurry?
Re: Brother
lecture him? nah...
like others have already suggested, bring it up casually with him...they listen more to u when i take the friend approach instead of the elder bro/sis/mother/father approach...tried n tested...n it works :)
Re: Brother
yes i kno, i have too lol, heck i think i went a bit overboard with my need to pretect him from all things eveil in this world when i punched a 2nd grader at recess when he picked on my bro.. lol.. hey i was in fourth grade n t seemed the most intelligent thing to do.. but u remind me of me.. so cute
hes a lucky lucky boy
Re: Brother
Tell him you want his eternal happiness and you understand the 'changes' he is going through, therefore you are looking for a nice girl for him to settle down with. It'll put the damper on for a while.
Re: Brother
hmmm try talking to him..but from wat i have seen it never works!!! i have two younger brothers both have stupid girlfriends 
n they refuse to talk about it…i mean maybe they will say a word or two but they never completely open up n tell me wats really up
Re: Brother
I dont want my brother to have a girlfriend!! and if i have anything to do with it…he won’t
Im going to be nice about it though..iv come up with a reverse psychology strategy. Im going to make up a boyfriend for myself and ask my brothers advice. Hopefully, he’l tell me its wrong to have boyfriends and il make him explain why, he’l explain the evils of men…and then…i will ask him about the phone number… and apply everything he told me about dating to his love life…
this way, he’s giving himself advice, il even give him an example of how clever he is, boys love to be told that. Heck, i can trick him into anything!
damn! i am evil. But im sorry…all is fair in love and raising your baby brother 
Re: Brother
he will do what he WANTS to do. and he should. as he grows up, he will experiment. make mistakes. learn from mistakes. its all part of the process. barra horaha hay....thoday parr to phaylayega na. but if u be posessive about him, embarass him regarding the issue, he will develop a different feeling towards you. he will do as he like, wheter u know about it or not. and its best for u to realize that your baby brother isn't a baby anymore...he's 17 masha-Allah say.
plus, u just found a number in his pocket...and you're assuming its his "girlfriend." maybe its nothing of the sort. maybe its just a friend....thats it. so what if he texts girls...talks to them.
plus, he might even accuse u of invading his privacy by inquiring about these type of issues.
Re: Brother
There is a flaw in your plan.
What if he is all quiet and no-commenty while you do that, then later goes and tells your dad that you have a bf?
Re: Brother
there is no “flaw” in my plan…its genius at its best
he wont be quiet as im asking him for his advice…maybe i should say its a friend of mine…he wont believe i have a boyfriend anyway..he thinks im ugly 
Re: Brother
by over protecting for him is bad for his confidence in life later. just speak to him once, tell him good and bad about it. He will listen to you. then leave it to him. but dont go and spy or ask him daily about it. he will get irritated and will listen less the more you stress.
its all part of growing up, sometime over protection make damaging effect on person
