Q for everyone: my sisters are the closest to me in my family but they're going to a dorm for a whole year so the ones who's left in my house are me, my mum, and my brother but my brother and I always get into fights so when my mom gets mad at him he's always mad because my mom always takes my side. When my mom is out of the house he always insults me but I'm the maknae and my sisters aren't here to defend me. When I have enough guts to answer my brother he hurts me and I'm afraid if I tell my family he hurts me, he'll hurt me again. What do I do?

S.coups: you should try telling your mom about it, if you don't he'll keep hurting you. You shouldn't be hurt!

Jeonghan: tell your parents, or maybe tell your friends and they'll help you with him?

Joshua: I don't think you should tell your parents about it. I don't think you should tell anyone about this. What you need to do, is you need to seriously talk about this with him. Like you said, your mom always takes your side so bringing her into this will just put punishment on him, meaning he'll hate you even more. You need to find a good opportunity and talk to him yourself about this. Get him on a good time and talk about everything with him.

Jun: maybe try moving out? Downstairs or something so you don't see each other.

Hoshi: it's not right he's hurting you. You should bring it up to your parents.

Wonwoo: I don't know

Woozi: Just deal with it.

DK: you should look at the brighter side of things and talk to him with a smile on your face. You should try being nicer to him so he won't have a reason to hurt you.

Mingyu: You should talk to him about it. If he doesn't stop after talking to him, then try telling your parents.

Minghao: o-oh no! You shouldnt hurt one another! That's bad, very bad! No hurting each other, you must love each other! 😊

Seungkwan: girl what're you doing, hurt him back! Punch him or pull his hair! Don't let him get away with it without you doing something!

Vernon: I don't know..I kind of side with the brother more on this one because I know how he feels. He's probably lashing out on you when your mother isn't home because she favorites you more. She obviously like you said always takes your side, meaning she probably shows you more attention. Parents always showing attention to the oldest and the youngest, but he's stuck in the middle. He's probably mad your parents always choose your side and shows more attention to you guys.

Dino: if you don't feel comfortable telling your parents about your brother hurting you, you should get your sisters to tell your parents for you. They already know what's going on, so they might be your best option.
