Was I wrong?

Does Pitbull's brother have the memory and mentality of a dog? Is he mentally retarded, or did you just pick a really nonsensical analogy?

There is one big difference.

I assume you have never acted in a fit of rage before so let me try and explain to you what actually goes through your mind when in a fit of rage....

Nothing.... Fsck all.... nada.

What happened happened. I came to the conclusion that I was wrong for hitting him infront of my kid, which you will see what noted right in my very first post. I have never denied that ;)

I wanted to know if I acted wrong by hitting my brother. I have come a conclusion that I could have handled it better which I didn't. Fact is what's done is done. I need to fix things now.

That being said, if you took the time to actually read the thread then you would have known where this matter stands now. But since you seemed to miss that part for your own benefit I thought I'll just highlight that for you.

Because Blu seems to have also only read the parts that suits her :rolleyes:

WTF? Is this thread still going? Seriously people, move on already. I don't care who it was, but if someone smacked my kid like that, I would give him some facial reconstruction, especially since it's a bladdy 3 year old kid who hit this guy by accident. What monster could lay a hand on a small child like that? I would've peed on him afterward. Thug.

I mean well. Violence is a terrible spiral. All I see from this thread is that you need help. Human beings can control their tempers, Pitbull. We all feel like hitting someone sometimes, but we just turn away and let it go.

Link?
 
I just had a thought (I'm allowed a few each week) ....

Do you think you acted the way you did BECAUSE he is your brother?
If it was a non-relative or stranger would you have acted in the same way? Family are not very likely to press charges in general. If it was a stranger or friend you might have been in warmer waters.

If it was a complete stranger slapping my kid, I would have been in jail now for Manslaughter ;)

I don't have time to look for a link but you have been judged accordingly and found guilty of this offense!

Ofcourse, you could always find the link yourself thereby reducing your sentence to an absolute minimum! :(

I was actually thinking about this last night.

Came up with a solution, from what I can ascertain it seems like he has issues with me and my kids. I think he feels threatened in some way that my folks adore them so much and he's their youngest son. Maybe he's losing his spot in the food chain.

I'll drive there on the weekend, I'll take 2 sets of Boxing gloves and a bottle of Brandy. We'll moer each other till he feels better and then have Brandy like good brothers should.

But this weekend might to soon as he might still have stitches by then. Maybe the weekend after.
 
lol my brother kicked me in the head(Multiple times) this weekend when I was dragging him out my mates car (passed out- 2 much of whatever alcohol that was in his system). Wow felt so good to punch him :D
 
Well irregardless of the reasons etc you need to work on your anger management. You're a married man with a child and you behaved like a hormonal teenage rugby player. You say that you didn't think about it, or you just lost control - that's all self-justifying nonsense. I mean - no doubt it's true, but you shouldn't let yourself lose control, especially when it could happen to someone much closer to your heart one day.

As for your brother resenting you - it sounds like he's just a bully, and you have more than a touch of bully in you as well. To be frank.

Yes I know.

Bunch of rough necks tbh :o
 
1.Your reaction was wrong yes but.... Family first and your son is only 3 years old he doesn''t need the mental impact of mature adult hitting him when he wanted to play.

2.Your Brother - Should perhaps realise that when little children want to play violent behaviour is unnecessary

Solution:
--------

You and your brother are mature adults go see a family (berader) and talk it out so there is no hard feelings in the family.

Last but not least.. It's ok to stand up for your child but lead by example.

Hope you get family feud resolved.
