BRUH DONT,, TAKE THAT COMMENT SERIOUSLY,, theyre overreacting labeling it as ""CHILD ABUSE"" thats not child abuse. "Child abuse is when a parent or caregiver, whether through action or failing to act, causes injury, death, emotional harm or risk of serious harm to a child. There are many forms of child maltreatment, including neglect, physical abuse, sexual abuse, exploitation and emotional abuse." yes, you did hit him. but dude. every sibling hits their siblings. i busted my lil brothers lip before when i was like 12 LMAOOO It happens. just, make sure you dont do anything too extreme and always apologize afterwards.
