Hit him where it hurts, by taking away something that he values. Explain to him that he will not have access to his prized posessions until he learns to respect other's belongings. For example, you will not be allowed to ride your bike until you can show me that you will stay out of my room and leave my things alone. After about a week or two if his behavior is good, you can let him once again ride his bike. But the first time he messes up and touches your things without your permission, he must be able to be sure with 100% accuracy that he will once again loose his privilege to ride his bike, or loose whatever it was that you took away from him.

Well depending on how old he is just talk to him. When you are both in a calm mood tell him that you do not like it when he touches your things without permission. Explain to him that his actions have consequences and that unless he asks first your personal belongings are off limits. Try to help him understand how he would feel if someone was using his things without asking. Then maybe pick out one or two things that you would allow him to use if he asks first. Let him know you appreciate his asking when he does in deed do so. It will help him learn responsibility and foster respect both ways. If he does it again take away one of his favorite things for a day or two or let him know he can't visit if he continues to use your things with such disregard. Good Luck

1st here is you problem "want to punish him where no beating is needed but something that will teach him a very very good lesson" kids need beatings as bad as it sounds it is true. I have never meet any parent that doesn't spank their kids and say they are just the best behaved kids NEVER! As a child I got many beatings but I desevered everyone I messed up and at the time I hated my parents, but now at 18 years old I realize that it is because of the strict parenting i got that I am as well trained as I am now.

Threaten him and then spank him.....it is not abuse unless you hit him without a reason. Tell him if he does it again you will spank him, then follow through if he does it again. If you don't follow through he will know you are a push over and will walk all over you.
