Chances are he doesn't know himself. People who commit acts of domestic abuse usually feel powerless and it gives them a power charge. They are often control freaks and unable or unwilling to accept responsibility for their behavior. If you're 17 years older than he, sounds like he's the "baby" of the family. Have people been enabling him his whole life, picking up after him? Does he have a sense of entitlement? TSuch people often do.
