my bird has been biting quiet alot recently and i dont know why. i have used my ski glove to hold him but whenever i take it off he still bites. my brother told me its cause he hasnt seen me for a long time and doesnt remember me, i dont know if thats the reason. his bites are really hard to the point where he pierces into my skin. can you please help. i miss my kind bird

Sounds like your bird is going through bluffing stage or simply he does not like you.
Start target training him.
Do not react to his bites just simply ignore it and continue working with him.
Soon he will realize his bites will not control you.
The worst thing you can do is shout or yell or even say "OUCH!"

if you spend too much time away from your bird he will adapt to the fact of not being with you and unless thisis bluffing you may need to try and build your bond back with it.

i have tried to ignore his bite he is biting less. but now hes started to bite everyone else in the family. if it is the bluffing stage how long does it last?
