I know how you feel, I was the middle child for a long time, and being the only female. My older brother was like my little brother is now, although his was a bit worse, he tried to kill me(we won't get into that) my little brother doesn't know about it. And for several years I lived in fear of him, and I was too afraid to tell anyone that he was so abusive to me. I'm not sure what changed but last fall he showed concern for me and seemed to have grown up alot, he can hold his temper now. No one really knows that all that happened and I try not to let most people know, and if Bubba knew he'd think it was even more okay, I don't want him to believe that violence is ok and should be practiced regularly. But I honestly don't think anyone sees Bubba's problem. My mom shakes it off as "he's 14 and he's got some pent up anger" not.. he is too angry for no reason all the time and he needs help. They tend not to listen to me.

As for this not hitting girls thing... I've always found it interesting. I've never hit a girl, but then again no girl has ever hit me. But personally I am of the belief that a woman has no right to hit a man and not expect to be hit in return. Doesn't matter if you're a man or a woman, if you don't want my fist in your face, keep yours away from mine.

She didn't hit him, she stood between them and he was mad so he tried to hit her. There's a difference between acidentally hittin someone in the way and trying to hurt them
twice cuz they're trying to stop someone else from getting hurt. And I'm a believer that in all honesty if a person male or female hits you out of anger like that that their asking for it. Same goes for someone raising their unjustly hand at any of my friends.
