He broke my jaw, what should I do?

[Sir-jackington]

Him and me just sort of went back to normal, which is drinking buddies, not really brothers.

I should probably mention this isnt exactly the first incident, there was the time a narrowly avoided him getting me in th face with a hammer, there is the time he beat the crap out of our little brother (including standing on his neck) and a fair few more

Yeap. This just reinforces my suggestion above. Also consider the fact that he might be an emerging alcoholic and either intervene, or simply stay away until he gets it together.

Actually were both pretty bad alcoholics and if anything im worse (as in drink more) but thats only cause i can afford more

 

[GodsAndFishes]

Going strictly by what you've described here (keeping in mind it might not be the whole story), I would simply stop associating with him in the situation where it happened.

That is to say - you say it was "on a night out" that he punched you. Simply stop going on "nights out" with him. For good. Continue to associate with him in calm family environments, but when he comes to you with "Hey wanna go out tonight," you reply "Yyyeah somehow I'd rather not, thanks."

Simply find your own friends to go out with and cut him out of that part of your life, while still keeping him in the parts where it would be almost impossible to repeat what he did.

That's what I would do at least. Fortunately neither of my brothers would ever dream of doing anything like that, but if they were to do it, this would be my reaction pretty much.

This seems to be the best option so far.
Or if you're feeling vindictive (and I can't blame you) befriend a medical student who can get their hands on some pretty strong laxatives and spike his drink every now and then, but not too often, then he won't suspect you.

Thank him, bit by bit he's slowly turning you into half man, half machine.

 

[randomrob]

Holy shit man how hard did he hit you? I dunno what you should do really, ask him to pay you for your missed days at work and therefore lost wages?

 

[ThePlasmatizer]

That's a pretty funny story.

Maybe break his jaw?

 

[cuddly_tomato]

some interesting idea's but just forgiving him isnt an option, its not like were constantly fighting about it it, i mean most of the people who found out about it were more pissed off with him than i was. Him and me just sort of went back to normal, which is drinking buddies, not really brothers. But its was extremely painful, it fucked up my a-levels and most importantly i can't eat solid food and it got to the point where even the sight off food was making my vomit. I should probably mention this isnt exactly the first incident, there was the time a narrowly avoided him getting me in th face with a hammer, there is the time he beat the crap out of our little brother (including standing on his neck) and a fair few more

Now is the time to press charges, especially if you have a little brother who is incapable of defending himself.

Call the police, explain the situation, and let them deal with it.

ay yes, we discussed what else he could break so i could officaly become a cyborg

 

[rabidmidget]

passively prank him by keep doing little things to annoy him without him realizing it's you.

What he did contitutes a ABH which the usual sentence is 6 months in prison and a £5000 fine. Seems a little bit mean although we did consider if it would be worht it because of the police compensation

[GuyWithABeard]

I think I'm right in saying "shit happens". Theres not much we can do about it.

Its unfortunate it happened to you and that he went unpunished, but its the past, old news, just get on with your life.

This sounds like there's no way in hell you should forgive him.

If it were my brother, and he'd done all that, I would hate him SO much.
I mean, making you miss exams, two operations, permanent damage.
Trying to hit you with a hammer, standing on your little brother's neck?
He needs some therapy, HUGE anger problems here.

Best I've got is break his important stuff, ruin his friendship if you can
or
If you're in the long run, learn some kind of martial art, wind him up, and beat the shit out of him.

Sounds violent, yes, but he bloody well deserves it.

(Of course, you may feel bad about it after, but ah well)

*cough* I definatly do NOT endorse violence of any kind.

 

[FWL_MeRc]

Laxitives in every meal,drink etc you can spike that belongs to him.

I done this to my brother for about a week (give them a day reprieve so they can recoever trust me on this one)

The constant shitting and the pain is like hell. And if you are good at lieing, no one will know its you. Just buy laxitives put it in his food drinks etc and enjoy the show.

 

[Jack_Uzi]

Sorry to say this, but your brother sounds a bit like a psycho with all the violence he inflicted for no reason. Don't get me wrong, when I was a kid, I beat the crap out of someone who tried to beat me up. But that had a reason. Strange that your parents don't talk about it. But if I were you, (and Sketches also metnioned) I would talk to your parents about the reason they have such a passive stance about it and back you up in getting the dude in to therapy. This is no good.

 

[Paksenarrion]

One. You cannot live in fear.

Two. Depending on how much taller he is than you, a quick jab upwards (like you're stretching) aimed at his chin will force his head upwards quickly, which will at least give you time to back away and find another improvised weapon. You'll have to close the distance when you do this, and you have to react quickly.

Three. Talk to your parents privately about your situation. Do they know about the other incidents? They should. If they react passively to it...

...get away from them as much as you can.

 

[Trebort]

Wait until he's asleep and then break his face with a crickitt bat?

 

[KAPTAINmORGANnWo4life]

THEY BROKE HIS JAWR!

 

[Jedoro]

Get a bat, knock some of his teeth out. At the very least you should break his nose. He hurt you and hasn't been punished or felt any remorse, so it's your job to bring that to him so he doesn't think to do it again.
