Undisciplined, ungrateful sister...advice please!
My sister got caught having a boy in the house and ever since then she acts like a total B*. She got the Asian treatment by our mother and an ounce by our brother. Ever since then she acts like, well, like a B*! She's always been a dirty, lazy person but she's amped it up. Terrible attitude, doesn't clean her dishes, leaves shit everywhere, and has no gratitude. She'd ask for food from our dad but not be grateful afterwards. If my mother buys her food, she refuses to bring some to our brother. My brother has even been letting her go out with him afterwards but STILL she's in spite. We all tried to be nice or positive to her afterwards but she basically acts like it's OUR fault that what happened to her was our fault.
Being underaged she thinks she's invincible, meaning if she gets the asian-treatment again, she'd call the cops. She also has a taser, in which she threatened to use it should a 'situation' arise, she said. I'm very disappointed in her, for being a b*, and also...my parents for making her spoiled.
What can we do? I honestly don't care anymore, like i can separate my ties with her, but she leaves crap everywhere, and if i don't do it, my mother will..She's 15, the age where she think's she knows it all, i'm sure she wants to live with that boy n be happy-happy-happy...*sigh
Re: Undisciplined, ungrateful sister...advice please!
First what is the Asian Treatment? Second, your parents have a responsibility to provide food to her as she is a minor living under their roof. It's up to your parents to decide what they will allow her to get away with and what and how she will be punished. What is important is that you do what is expected of you by your parents and to be respective of them.
I would remind your sister that she is still a minor and it since they are providing a roof over her head, she has to follow their rules. I would tell her that you only need do this for a few more years until you are 18 & out of high school, then she is free to move out & do whatever she needs. But until then, she needs to be respectful, follow the rules and if she does, the next few years will be a lot easier then if she defies your parents all the time.
I agree with Erikan --- she is still under age and she is to abide by all of the household rules.
What is she doing with a taser??? Aren't they illegal? Wow -- turn that thing into the cops; your sister needs intervention in a hurry.
