Family bonds, as strong as they are sometimes characterized by tensions, especially brothers.

Conflicts can be small to more severe with the factors that lead to rupture to vary.

One of the causes mentioned by experts is the competitive relationship that the brothers develop with each other and is rooted in their childhood.

Competition can focus on parents’ attention with children being struck by who will save more time, financial support and care.

Over time and with the issues remaining unresolved, brothers may choose to stop the relationship rather than face psychological challenges.

This is also contributing to the favor of parents in the form of comparison that leads the brothers to an unintentional competition.

The age difference is another cause as brothers’ interests do not coincide, leading to reduced communication.

Traumatic experiences within the family may also lead to the alienation of the brothers as the weight of the common trauma and the different way of dealing several times contributes to the choice of removal to disconnect from the fact.

Brotherhood rivalry is common and, to a certain extent, normal. However, when it takes the form of constant devaluation, physical violence or emotional exploitation, it can leave deep injuries.

Children who grow up by experiencing such behaviors from their siblings are often alienated as they have lost the sense of security symbolized by the family home.
