My little brother tried to rape me should I tell our parents?

For your and other peoples safety you need to tell you parents they need to get him some help he tried this time but what if next time he succeeds? or decides to try to rape someone else? if you love your brother which im sure you do you need to help him by getting him help cause he might try or succeed with you again or someone else and it could be a totally different situation he could wind up in jail or worst dead its better if you get him the help he need now!

It is very important for you to tell your parents. It is a very touchy issue but a normal teenager won't act like this. It's not a dinner table conversation though. Sit your parents down and explain to them what happened. Make them understand that they need to believe you but that you don't want to call the police or anything. They need to talk to your brother and maybe he should consult a therapist about what he was feeling at the time and why he did it. He said sorry, and he realized he was doing something wrong, correct? So he's not, you know, a bad kid. However, like I said, this is not normal, especially the rape attempt. You really need to talk to you parents and maybe your Dad and him should have a private conversation. He might refuse the help because he's ashamed of it. And he will be angry at you for telling. But this can't be kept a secret. Don't spread it, but you parents really need to know.

I would definitely tell your parents just as you explained that you think he has a problem and needs help. But just protect yourself going into this that they may not believe you as that would be a horrifying thing to hear from their kid about their other child. They might be in denial at first as thinking your lying to get him in trouble would be way easier to deal with than him trying to rape you. I might start off telling an aunt or another close family friend if you think your parents won't believe you. either they can help defend your case or at least be a support to you...

I would start with a trusted adult who isn't your parents. A former teacher, counselor, pastor, etc. If there are no such, yes, you should tell your parents. Rape is inexcusable and someone needs to get some intervention before your brother does something worse, although this is bad enough.

Sorry to hear this, good luck.

Tell You Parents

You must tell your parents. Your brother has a problem. It may be a major mental issue or a mood stability issue. Either way, he is a physical danger to you. Next time you may not be able to stop him. This really stinks and I'm sorry that he put you into this position, but you have to have the fortitude to get him help by telling your parents, vehemently.

You have to tell your parents, I know its hard because I went through the same thing but it wasnt my brother. He might do it again because he has unnatural feelings for you, especialy that you both were reared by your parents together, its not natural for him to feel that way about you. If your parents dont believe you you have to distance yourself from him. I know it would be difficult but what he thought of doing to you is not right, at all.

i suggest sitting down and talking to your little brother about what happened first. perhaps there's things going on in his life that is confusing him, or making him different. see if he's having any problems. then, let him know that all of you need to talk to your parents about this, if they're sensible and not judgmental. or, if there's only one sensible parent, talk to them first. your brother knows what he did is wrong. the problem is that he had the audacity to try it on you. so, if he could do that, then imagine what else may be going through his mind? i'm not trying to be mean, but this is serious. not only would it be considered rape, but also incest, depending on the laws of the jurisdiction you're in.

Don't tell as for now.Watch his actions closely, if he acts like he doesn't care about what happened and trys something smart then you bring it to your parents.

Maybe his feelings got the better of him at that time, since he is just 17,did'nt know what's right and what's wrong.

give him a second chance.

Tell him to solve this problem other u will inform parents about this if there is any problem with his physical then he will understand other wise he might try again.
