Family

[Guess?]

Does any one else have problems with siblings? Or am I the only one that wants my siblings gone?

[Queen Asuka]

[color=hotpink][size=1]Well, I take it you're about 15 (according to your profile?) so it's normal for you to not get along with your siblings. Some you love, some you hate. I know that when I was your age I couldn't stand my sister Franki. Now we are closer than ever. I think that the dislike of siblings is a normal process and a part of life and that it is something that will fade over time as one gains maturity.[/color][/size]

[anime_guy]

i got a 14 year old brother and a 2 year old suster, my sister isn't too bad, she's not around me a whole lot, and my brother is cool, h'es a lot like me, exept shorter and with brown hair and eyes... Me and him are almost like twins, we like most of the same stuff and, well, he's just cool ^_^ It sound kinda weird for me, the older brother to say that, but whatever

[Guess?]

No you don't understand I [i]hate[/i] them. They make me mad, destroy my things, and they never get in trouble for anything they do to me. I also thought it was just a stage or something, but its been happening since we were little. And I am 15.

Anime Guy thats cool that you and your brother are close. Lucky bastard.

Well, you should try and get them in trouble! that's what I have done, and it worked pretty well too ^_^ My brother never did the same thing to me (if it was bad) twice.. heh heh.. and, yes, I think I am a lucky bastard ^_ ^ lol

[Queen Asuka]

[color=hotpink][size=1]Trust me, it will pass in time. I went throught the SAME EXACT thing. I wouldn't lie to you. I'm just sharing my wisdom.[/color][/size]

[Guess?]

Anime I've tried to get them in trouble. I usualy get hurt in the process, someway, somehow. Thanks for sharing your wisdom Asuka.

[Trumen]

I have gone through the same you and Asuka have gone through and it was really bad a times. I once had a knife drawn on me by my brother of a year older. But, now 7 years later we are like best friends and we work together everyday so it is good to be. So, my advice is the pretty much the same as Asuka unless you want to get into a knife fight.

[Ellester41]

I have a 10 year old ball of slime excuse of a brother. (I'm 13) He swears more times in a day than most people I know say in their life. He also has a habit of beating me up. In fact, he just came up here(comp. room) and hit me on my head and punched me and strangled me with my shirt and pulled me out of my chair and screwed up my glasses and scratched me. All because the toilet doesn't flush. Like it's all my fault. And I go through this every day of my life. My parents don't care. If they yell at him, he just fights and swears at them, so they give up. They don't care to begin with anyway. That is my life. Really. *sigh* I am hated by all.

[White Akita]

i have a 10 year old sister who never gets in trouble for the things she does. she'll throw all sorts of extreemly sharp objects at me. i'm not joking either. matter of fact, i get in trouble for what she does.[i feel like ellester41.my sis does everything except the swearing, and fighing back.]shoot, i thought a 13 year old with a ten year old sibling was the one suposed to do the bossin' around:p i've tried getting her into trouble, but i get blamed. we'll never get along. i swear she's the bigges___ around.

[Fyxe]

[SIZE=1][COLOR=darkblue]It happens with most siblings, trust me. I have hated and hate currently my siblings, but way deep down inside I love them. My little brother [I]always[/I] gets on my nervs, somtimes I have actually hurt him, normally not meaning to. I always yell at my older sister as well. Think of the headaches I get with my siblings, I have six of them.
You may get terribly mad at them and feel as if you hate them, but if you think about it you know you love them. You can't tell me you've never hugged or stood up for your siblings, you can't say you have never been nice to them or them being nice to you. It's just a thing that happens, we always are aroung our siblings, you get sick of being with them, and then comes the conflicts. You can't always agree with them. Look at it this way, if you always lived with your best friend, you would get sick of living with each other. It's just like that.
But I'm sure if you start being nicer to your siblings and take it slow with them, they will do the same after a while. I'm not saying it will work at first, but you need to give it plenty of time. If you have more positive moods/ interactions with them, they will too.
I hope that helps, being a person with six other siblings, I should know well about it. ^^;;[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[Kanariya]

A lot of people have that problem these days with the age of being teens, including me.
My sister and I are not the best of friends. We fight most of the time, we are practically mean to each other.
And same things happen to me also. I destroy my room completely, mutter curse words, and bang on my door. This goes for my mother also, I don't like to socialize with her, at all.
But I also have a big brother and sister, and they are nice to me, and I'm nice to them. Not like my sister, who's probably on the top 5 list of siblings that are brats.

[Kyo]

I never had to deal with my sisters because there's a good difference in our ages. My eldest sister graduated (from colledge) when I was born and the other one is two years younger than that.

[Artemis]

A lot of you are saying that you "hate" your siblings. I think "hate" is a very strong word. It's the opposite of "love". If "love" means anything, then "hate" is just as strong in the opposite direction.
There are moments when I strongly "dislike" my almost 16-year old sister, but deep down, I love her more than life. I would never anything happen to her. Unfortunately, she is the cause of nearly every conflict in our house. As the second oldest daughter, she feels inferior to me and thinks our mom picks on her and doesn't understand her. We all do our best to understand and love her, but she tends to be an extremely selfish person (at home, at least). She's only nice to us when she wants to something. She's been going to counseling, but it hasn't helped much. Somehow, she's very dissatisfied with everyone at home and every pain she feels from the rest of the world is taken out on us--those who love her most. It's really a very sad, extreme situation. I would never ask to get rid of any of my 9 siblings. Though (not counting the affore mentioned sister) there are little fights here and there, we all get along pretty well. You're never lonely in a family this size! :D
Oh, and I'm sorry, Guess, if I sound like a snob or something here, but "they make me mad" sounds like a pretty weak reason to hate someone. You can control yourself better than that. Sure, you'll get angry sometimes, but you've got to be the bigger person and look past it all. In a few years, they won't seem so bad. You're at the age when it feels like the entire world is against you--it's not. There are plenty of people who truly love you and care about you. They may not always show it, but they do. I wish you the best of luck in handling your sibling affairs.

I have a younger sister who is now 12 years old. I don't hate her, but she is really annoying at times. I try my best to stay calm and remind my self that I did the exact same things when I was her age. Well not exactly the same things, but close to it.

When ever I watch her she immeadiately starts acting up. She throws things at me and tries to punch my lights out. Fortunately I can remain very calm at times.

I usually end up carring her to another part of the house and leaving her there. I don't lock her in or anything like that. I just leave her there and go back to the room I was in.

Even though I'm the one in charge she doesn't listen to me. So when I leave her in another part of the house I know for a fact that she's just going to run to her room and throw a trantrum just because I didn't play her little game.

The game is usually let's see if we can get older sister in trouble before the parents get back. As long as the parents are away then she can do things and blame them on me. Then they only have her word on the matter.

It never really works. So I don't bother getting angry over it. Don't worry about your siblings to much. They will eventually grow up and start acting there age......hopefully.

[size=1][color=green]I'm just glad that I have a sibling.. some people don't at all, and that can be hard at times. Just like never having a father, which I've gone through, you miss out on things in your childhood. Sure, I get mad at my sister at times, but I love her.[/color][/size]

[Syk3]

I absolutely cannot stand my younger brother. Trust me, I've tried to be resonable, but there's no getting around the fact that he's immature and makes my life absolutely miserable.

To start off, I should say that I also have a strong dislike for my dad, which partly stems from the fact that my brother is his favorite out of the two of us, and he always takes his side despite how clearly the facts point to me being the innocent one. My brother can gang up on me with his friends right in front of my dad and try to say how obnoxious making friends on the internet is, as well as some of my other hobbies, and I'll say "Just shut up.." once and get in trouble for belittling him in front of his friends.

My brother does not understand the concept of maturity. Despite the face that he doesn't like girls, tells our parents if he gets the slightest hint that I like girls, tells on me if I slip up and accidently cuss, is always running around and annoying everyone, is the worst movie critic ever ("Plot?! Who needs it?? This move has the coolest gun fights!"), and is a little too optimistic for this tragic world, he continues to insist that he is mature.

Let me give you an example. I just had a talk with him the other day and outlined exactly what I wanted him to change about himself so that we could get along better. See? I tried to improve our relationship so I would be more apt to get along with him, but to no avail. Right after we got done talking about respecting my privacy and not telling on me for every little thing, he finds this comment that I made about having a gf, posts it in an IM to his friend, prints it out 10 times, makes about 20 copies, hides them around the house, and shows my mom.

I swear, anything we had for that single moment is gone and I'm never trusting him again. -__-

[wiccansamurai]

Most of you guys are lucky (Except the ones getting beat up by their siblings O.o) I have five brothers and two sisters. Its hard to get noticed. My mom seriously thought I was on drugs (Which I wasn't, but in a way, I was cuz I had ODed to try to kill myself. But she was thinking more of pot, when that was aspirin and cold medicine. just a bit off-topic) anyway, she dropped it after a day and she never mentioned it since.

[Rememberence]

I hate my brother too but then i don't what i would do without him.
i love him at the same time i can't live with him and he's 10.
I haven't got to your stage of Wanting to destroy my brother so i don't know what it is like but i think it's your star signs and your chinese sign that makes you don't get on. and that is a proven fact.

[Snufkin]

Heh...siblings...I could go on and on talking about how they irk me so much. They drive me on the brink of insanity each and everyday, but not bad enough for me to say that I hate them.

My younger brother is one year younger than me. I share a room with him. Enough said. He is the most annoying pest I have ever met. (Not saying that there are not worse than him, just saying I've yet to meet them.) The thing he most often that bugs me is his singing. I can't stand it. He thinks that he is the best singer in the world but he isn't. It's terrible. Terrible like nails on a chalkboard or a cat in pain. He also says the dumbest things like quoting things we don't want to hear or telling us to shut up all the time even though he is the one being annoying. He's just too immature; he needs to grow up and act his age.

Speaking of having to act your age, I get to my older brother. He is far less annoying but he still bugs me in a different way. He acts like an egotistical jerk half the time, and even though he says 'I'm just kidding you know that, right?' he still does it. Over and over and over and over and over...sometimes I just want to smack him for taking things he says out too far. But eh...without my older brother I'd go insane. I need someone logical to talk to, and it sure isn't going to by my younger brother >>

(Shin...don't kill me.)

Haha, I wouldn't kill you just for saying that. I find your insults quite amusing, as a matter of fact (not like "Haha, you live only to amuse me" but like "Hey, that's pretty funny").

But, yeah, half the stuff I say to her is really egotistical...but I don't believe any of that crap I say lol (luckily, neither does she o_O). I just do it to bring some amusement into the house. My sister has been buried with homework lately (as have I) and I try to be at least decently funny, so it's not so bad. It's hit and miss, though. Poor me :(

And, yes, she has smacked me once or twice because I've said some really dorky egotistical statement lol. But she can't hurt me, anyway, because I'm too damn strong :p

[outlawstar69]

I hope my sister doesn't see this.. heh... I'm 17, and have 5 other siblings. I know very well what you all are going through. I can remember most of them being born, and all the stages that led up to now. I can say this from experience: It will get better. The youngest one is now in 5th grade, and they have all grown up and matured a great extent. I have had my disputes, but I settled them of course. They act up, as they are all still young, but that's ok. I know they'll grow up someday. They won't be little kids forever you know. If you're having a tough time; stick it out, and remember that you get to move out first :)

[666jInZo]

I just can stand people in general. i got a bother that will not leave me alone. :mad: Oh well life sucks then in get over it

[color=hotpink][size=1]The last thing your parents should do is give up on disciplining this child. My parents would have NEVER let us get away with anything like that. I'm 18 years old and I don't even live at home anymore and I would NEVER cuss in front of my mother.

I have a cousin who was much like that. She cussed at her parents and when she did wrong, her mom just sort of gave up. She got worse and worse as we got older: doing drugs, running away from home, etc. Now she's 17 and due in January. Yes, she's having a baby. I'm telling you, your parents better start paying that child some attention and doing something about it, or it's going to be even harder when he gets older.[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]My 16 year old sister is the same way, but she's not bad enough that she has to go to counseling. But she does think that my mom loves me more than her and that my dad hates her. I keep telling her that she will realize how wrong she is when she gets older. She's the middle child of my mother's children (we have two older half-sisters) and so we call it middle-child syndrome. And it's normal. She's a lot more mature now than she has ever been. I love her dearly.

Nine siblings, huh? So that makes ten? I am so jealous. I have four sisters and I thought that was a big family. And I LOVED having alot of sisters. I want to have alot of kids so that maybe they will have close relationships like I had to my sisters.

Ten kids...I always said I would have ten kids. ^_^[/color][/size]
