My brother asked my to help practice a new blocking technique he learnd (He's been doing martial arts for years). So I should try to punch him repeatedly in the face and he would block it.
I wanted to help him and I tried doing it, but I just couldn't. Actually I don't think I could hit anyone (I even remotely like) in the face, let alone my brother. No matter if he askes me to or if he's a pro.

    Of course it's normal!

    I don't see it as weakness, I see it more ass your protective side. When you're protective, especially with a person you care deeply about -your brother-, you want to protect him from harm, not intentionally harm him.

    It's perfectly normal to not want to hit anyone in the face, some people just do not have tempers nor the ability to physically to hurt others intentionally. (Like Myself)

    Totally. I'm far from a fighter, and when I'm mad I just walk away. If I ever come into a fight unavoidable and I HAVE to hit him, it'll probably be pushing, hitting the stomach and kicking on the legs. Not the head.

    Punching someone in the throat is effective too
    Warren hit "chompers" in the throat...something about Mary

    You see you're brother as someone you want to protect, my brother is the same I could sit there and just clobber him repetitively in the face and he cannot bring himself around to doing it, I find it quite funny. yes but because you see to protect the ones you love (basic human instinct) you cannot bare to put them in the harm which you long to help them avoid protect them from.

      Avoid lethal neck assault. Try the ribs if 'them' in the ribs or just simply disarm them, get them in a arm or leg lock or just better yet do anything... just don't try a hay maker they can end relatively badly (trust me im from Australia)

    What? My brother and I used to hit each other in the face all the time. We used to literally fist fight.

    Good times.

    You shouldn't be afraid of hitting someone in the face. You never know what might happen that you're going to need to teach somebody a lesson.

    I did karate for a fair while, and in sparring lots of people just won't hit someone hard. It's just to far out of their comfort zone.
    Experience of fighting is the key to overcome it!
    Or if you don't want to...want to hit anyone, continue not hitting your brother!
