10 Reasons Why Little Brothers are the Best

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at U Mass Amherst chapter.

I’m sure oftentimes people think of their younger brother as little devils destined to wreak havoc on the world. Truly, that is not always the case! Think of all of the times your little brother has entertained you with his goofy humor, or how lonely you would’ve been as an only child. Admit it, living a few hours away from them and not getting to watch them grow up makes you a little sad. Most of the time they make you want to tear your hair out, but you have no idea how you’d survive life without them. Here are ten reasons why your little brother may be one of the best things that’s happened to you.

1. He makes you look like an angel.

2. He will always tell you his honest opinion, albeit often in a ruthless way.

3. He is your lifelong best friend.

4. He is the only boy who won’t break your heart.

5. He is your partner in crime when it comes to pranking your parents.

6. He will always kill the bugs for you.

7. He values your opinion.

8. He keeps your parents busy, so eyes aren’t on you.

9. He makes you laugh until you cry.

10. He loves you unconditionally.
