How to stop your brother from annoying you
Ignore your brother rather than responding.
If your brother is being difficult, you may have to try temporarily ignoring him. This isn't a very effective strategy for long-term sibling relationships, but if you want to avoid lashing out in anger, the best response is to just ignore him.

Choose your answer from: -Focusing your attention on something other than the annoying sibling is productive, especially if he continues to act tiresome. As soon as you notice him, shake your head, roll your eyes, and walk away.. -Not responding is not a sign of weakness. If anything, it takes more strength and willpower to resist lashing out at your brother or sinking to his antics.. -This doesn't necessarily mean ignoring your brother. Simply not responding can put a major negative spin on your relationship.. -Go somewhere quiet, like your bedroom, to avoid your brother's irritability. Giving him a space that you're not comfortable being alone in will lead to his anger coming to a head..
