my brother is too overprotective!!!!?

my big brother and sister who are twins are really overprotective of me. and it's mostly my brother. the other day i was with my boyfriend in my room with the door open and we weren't having sex or talking about having sex we were just sitting on my bed and he started kissing me and my brother walked in the room and started screaming at me. he said that i was way too young to do that. and i'm not i'm 14! and when i got mad at him he told me that he would punish me for it later. i don't get why he thinks he has to punish me we weren't doing anything!!! he said he was going to tell our parents too. does he thing we were going to do something? does he think that something happened? does anyone else have overprotective siblings too? is he right to punish me if he does? why is he so overprotective and how do i get him to let me have some freedom? is it normal for him to be this overprotective???

    I know it's annoying, but he's overprotective because he loves you, and because he was once a 14 year old boy and knows what is on their minds. Talk to him in a calm moment, and tell her that you love him and you know he is that way because he loves you, but that you have no intention of doing anything wrong. He's the male sibling, and older. He's just trying to protect you. And no, he does not have the right to punish you. That's a parent's job.

    its good that he is actually. i have brothers. 3 actually. and all are nice and protective over me. honestly i even talk about a guy around my oldest (who is in the army) and he gives me the most evil look and starts talkin about what would happen if he were to ever meet this boy. my other to brothers just threaten the boys i hang with. and my dad is worse than all 3 of them put together. and i know you may not think it now. but your 14..you are too young to kiss. i'm 15 and i still try to aviod kissing dudes.

    but your brother is just trying to keep you safe thats all. he doesn;t want to see you get hurt. you should be happy about this. because the way things are going these days there aint alot of family's (deffintly in my neighborhood) that are like that at all. they just let their kids go everywhere. and that would be the reason why alot of teen pregnancy's are acurring these days.

    of course...like a good brother naturally he is worried about you and in a way i think he's right...you are young to be kissing at 14...see he thinks that if you can kiss at this age then you can even have sex at this age...maybe that's what he thinks eventhough you aren't thinking that way...and yeah like an older brother he has every right over you atleast until you are 18...but yeah if he's like being just toooo overprotective like walking in your room in the middle of the night to check whether you haven't eloped and stuff then i think you need to explain to him that you are not a kid anymore and that you respect your parents dignity and wouldn't do a thing like that...don't lose your temper...it only shows that you are immature in fact and need protection from your family...so maintain your calm and talk to him about it...it might take days for him to understand but once he gets the hint that you wouldn't do anything really disgusting, he'll eventually understand and let you have your way...but even then don't break your family's trust...

    all the best!

    I don't think you should have been in your bedroom kissing either, but I also agree with you that it's not your brother's place to burst in or threaten you with punishment.

    The best thing for you to do is to tell your parents yourself if you think your brother is going to go to them.

    There's nothing wrong with kissing at your age, but not in a bedroom. It's too tempting to take it to another level.

    Your older brother knows best. You are lucky to have someone who cares for you. If you are under 18, you have no business kissing your boyfriend in your room or in any room. Someday you will thank your bro.
