Dear james:
You care about not harming others, correct? Isn’t your “shame and guilt” about your feeling that you may have harmed your brother?
To let go of shame and guilt about harming others, pay attention and see to it that you do-n0-harm to another, especially pay attention to your treatment of children, do-no-harm. Be kind and gentle with children, never aggressive, never exploiting. You earn your self forgiveness by doing just that today, tomorrow, always.
If this issue that happened once years ago continues to bother you, see a counselor or psychotherapist. A few sessions may be enough for you to understand further and alleviate or eliminate your distress.
