older child jealous of new baby

My 6 year old nephew has just become an older brother to a baby sister.
He doesn't like it when people hold her when they come to visit. He seems to be getting aggressive e.g kicking, snatching things, storming off, I get he's jealous as he's used to having his parents to himself.

I noticed that no one seems to be controlling him, not his parents or grandparents. I don't know if it's because they feel sorry for him or babying him.

It irritates me when I see him kicking his grandad and snatching things of people's as well as being a little bully and no one says anything to him.
Do parents normally do this?
