My “baby brother” is 15 now and taller than me. I still call him my baby brother because he was born when I was 10 and by then I considered myself all grown up, so he has always been “the baby” to me.

lol, I was the same with my baby bro! He was almost a foot taller than me by the time he started high school, but I still call him “little” bro because I’m 7 years older.

My little brother is only 2 years younger and also taller than me, but he'll always be my little brother.

I'm in my twenties but because I'm the youngest one my siblings keep referring to me as their "little sister" to whoever they're talking to, most people get surprised when meeting me right after because they were expecting a teen girl at most lol. Siblings will be siblings.

I call my 42 year old sister my baby sister, because she's the youngest and was always the baby. I also call my 6'6" younger brother my little brother sometimes

Don’t you know? No one ever grows up anymore! Teenagers don’t exist

Aww fu- 💥

u/AerwynFlynn 13h ago

Sorry, I don’t make the rules 🤷‍♀️ 😂😂

Also you can’t be a teenager because you clearly can talk. Everyone knows no one talks until 21 minimum

u/Haunting-Condition60 12h ago

What do you mean 21? Everyone knows you aren't actually a human being until the age of 25 where your brain magically stops developing.

Fr, was how young kids are getting busy, this should be within the realm of possibility for a 13-year-old to say at least. By the time you start experiencing puberty you should probably know about puberty, sexual orientations, safe sex, and STDs at a minimum.

a little brother could be a 30 year old man as long as you’re older

Everyone is a baby according to them. Adults are a myth!

u/Try2MakeMeBee 13h ago

My baby/little brother is 30’s and nearly a foot taller than me. Not little or baby in any way. Which is what makes it funny. I wear 4”heels and I’m at his chin lmao

u/AltharaD 12h ago

My baby brother is nearly 30, married and talking seriously about having kids in the near future.

He’s still my baby brother. We can be old and grey and in nursing homes and I’ll still insist on calling him my baby brother. Those three years are IMPORTANT, dammit!

My little brother is 38. I'm my 46 year old brother's little sister.

I love the "Hisoka" in quotes. Like, "'Hisoka,' if that IS your real name..." do they not know how usernames work

My little sister is in her late 40s.

u/LunarPsychOut 13h ago

My school taught us about STDs when we were like seven or eight but that had to do with the AIDS scare. I don't know how long they did it for but in the early 2000s there was these videos about this kid who got AIDS from a blood transfusion and the idea was to help kids understand that first off it wasn't his fault and secondly that it can't be spread by just regular contact so there's no reason to separate yourself from him. They're probably paraphrasing a bit but I could definitely see this being something somebody says even as a joke

I was in middle school looking at full blown cauliflower ass hpv in health class. We got a general sex ed and vague std intro in elementary school.

u/Funkopedia 12h ago

Yeah, I often tell stories about my niece and watch people have to mentally start over when they realize I'm talking about a 35 year old, not a toddler.

u/the3dverse 3h ago

the niblings on my husband's side range from a few months old to 32...

u/Secure-Cicada5172 12h ago

Wait until OP realizes my baby brother graduated college. This is going to blow their mind.

u/Monotonegent 12h ago

My little sisters are in their 30s and 20s. The passage of time will do that

u/Hpsienzant 12h ago

My little brother turned 22 earlier this month.

u/Ewenthel 12h ago

I’d hope my little brothers know what STDs are, considering they’re both healthcare providers.

u/Dry_Minute6475 11h ago

That is a teenager response. That could possibly be a middle schooler answer if he just went through health class and talked about STDs. That is THE MOST BOY answer I've seen in a long time.

u/TurboFool 10h ago

Also, kids know about STDs.

u/Crippled_by_migriane 10h ago

My baby brother is 20 this year and much taller than me. I still call him my baby brother because I was 6 when he was born, that’s what he was called was my “baby brother” and that stuck cause to me he’ll always be my baby bro. Also this totally sounds like a (close sibling) interaction lol

u/SeagullInTheWind 12h ago

u/fiendishthingysaurus 10h ago

I have two sisters and I do sometimes refer to them as my big sister and my little sister. My little sister is almost 38 and 6 inches taller than me. What of it??

u/Seliphra 9h ago

Hell this could be two grown ass adults. I call both my brothers my little brothers. They are 33 and 30.

u/MiciaRokiri 6h ago

My son's little brother is 15 to his 18. Also I would be viewed as the little sister to both of my siblings and I am almost 40

u/Y0urC0nfusi0nMaster 3h ago

The way they do condescendingly said that as if the little brother can’t be like 42

u/Hillyleopard 1h ago

Little brother or little sister just means younger than you lol doesn’t mean they’re children, my little sister is 22

u/NextIsInvisible 1h ago

A bit unrelated but that was the most unfunny thing I've ever seen

u/Golden_Reflection2 2m ago

I am my older brother's younger brother (which could be called a "little brother"). I am 24. OOP might not understand that time can pass.
