Try to see the little things in him that make you happy, spend more time with him if you can and try to understand him a bit better and come to terms with why you hate/dislike him.

Siblings are hard to love and hate to be honest. For me, I just take the good things and forget the bad. Sometimes it's hard and we do argue but I know that he is family and I'll always baby him as the elder sister

To start with, maybe try do a little more with your little brother. Engage in games with him and if he is a teen maybe try watch a movie and have family fun time to be social with him. Be nice and try avoid arguments over films. Maybe take him our or go to the park? Maybe even go round to the corner shop together? Just do something fun and active with him. Have fun and enjoy yourself. Also, the word hate is quite a strong word, maybe you dislike him. Anyway take my advice and try it out.

I hate my little brother too but you must realise this child depends on you as a role model. They will pick up on your hatred and only retaliate more. Maybe you can speak to someone one on one or even your brother if he is old enough to understand. You don't owe any of your family respect if they do not give it either but you must be kind and be the bigger person in any situation. Life will treat you greater for it and you will become a better person. It will be hard but that is what makes it worth it.

Well I have a little brother too, we fight then end up together. Sometimes because of special situations a misunderstanding is created and we end up hating each other at some point. But he is my little brother, he is my responsibility and I'm more mature and understand things in all possible ways. We need to take things in a positive way and it's an elders responsibility to understand them in the worst circumstances. So why not forgive him as he is still younger than me and take a initiative to give a hand of kindness and making things right. I feel talking is the best way to clear all misunderstandings which will give you a reason to not hate him without knowing proper reason behind it, isn't it?

Having a positive relationship with your siblings can be extremely beneficial, particularly later in life. However, it's not always easy when your sibling has a habit of annoying you. Not only can it can cause frustration and anger for you personally, it can cause conflict within your family and fill your home with tension. Figuring out how to handle your sibling's problematic behavior may take time, but with a little patience and reason, you can learn to defuse the situation and avoid conflict.

Try and bond with him instead of being against him try to do an activity. As you might just be a bit jealous of him getting all the attention
