Recently i wrote about my mother's tragic death and the events following that . I have alot of responsibilties but i try to do best as i can . I have a younger brother who is 6 years younger to me . I am having a lot of priblems dealing with him . After my mother's death he has become moody and gets angry at small little things.
He does not concentrate on studying which is affecting his grades . He is going through his teenage years and i can totally relate to his mood swings . But they are affecting the peace in our family . He thinks that he is big enough to do whatever he wants . I am really worried .
I would like to know how to deal with a teenagers mood swings and how to help him grow ?

Its tricky indeed. Try thinking like him!! Use words and sentences as he uses.
Basically, try to deal with him in his language.
Or else see if he has any such a good friend who you can contact and they talk to ur brother back.

The problem lies in his friends only . They are leading him to a bad path and he is blindly following them

He would have to pay for his actions. If he continues to do what he does, privileges would have to be taken away.

I would rather treat him as grown up and not keep giving him advises.
I think we need to give teenagers a little freedom to make mistakes, and do things they want their way, because that what shape their personality in their 20s.
They will make mistake and will learn from their mistakes.
I think he is equally devastated with the loss and is upset with cruelty of life.
But I think with little time and if you give some responsibilities to him, he will be back to normal.

As long as he stays out of trouble it is fine

Dealing with teenage attitude is hard. I have the same issues with my daughter. The biggest thing I can offer is to listen when he speaks. He is hurting and having issues to. Which may be different than yours. but still they are there. Let him voice his opinions and make some decisions.

You have a lot to deal with. Talk to him and keep the communication going.
