i agree you need to get to the bottom of this rirhgt away...the 15 yr old might be having some issues at school, or with friends and you need to sit down at talk to him right away see why he is acting the way he is...you will know i he is lying i am sure ... take him for a burger or something and talk to him one on one...maybe he is jealous of the attention the 3 yr old gets, and is taking it out on him...could be anumber of things but you need to have a heart to heart talk with him alone

good luck

Without knowing a little more about the situation I have to say, you need to put a stop to this immediately. Your 15 year old is really to old to be jealous and to big to be aggressive with a 3 year old. The question remains why? Is the 15 year old bearing much responsibility for care? This would make him have a 'tude big time. Is the little one getting into the older one's things? Obviously then the little one needs to learn personal boundaries. Otherwise, your 15 year old could use an old fashioned butt kicking. Your the parent, put the law down and if he doesn't respect it, punishment will have to be dooled out in accordance.

Sounds like your 15 year old has alot of anger built up and needs something or someone to take it out on.I hope the 15 yr. old is not being bullied themselves to cause this behavior. It probably wouldn't be a bad idea to to sit him/her down and try to get to the bottom of it before it gets out of hand.

You need to confront this head on and if you know the 15 y/o is lieing for a fact you need to confront him/her directly telling him that you know it is a lie because you saw the act. Shame on him for treating the younger that way. He should know better. The baby needs him to show him how to behave, he's a role model. Expecially because hey are both male. Sit down and talk to your teen.
