<p>who is crazily spoiled.</p>
<p>My sister is driving me crazy</p>
<p>any tips?</p>
<p>Stop spoiling them. Then prepare for an agitating month or two.</p>
<p>beatings???</p>
<p>^ That would also work though I doubt her parents would approve.</p>
<p>I have stopped it. My mom has not! It is bothering me so much!!!</p>
<p>Me: <em>walksintobedroom</em> <em>seesherplayingwithmytrumpet</em> “Get you hands off my trumpet!!!”
Her: <em>pokesmytrumpetforfun</em>
Me: <em>is</em>**<em>edoff</em></p>
<p>I hate that she feels she can do whatever she pleases. I love her but lately she has been hard to live with. </p>
<p>beatings?? smh</p>
<p><em>thinks this would be the perfect thread for “Mad Libs” type answers</em></p>
<p>Or “A 12-inch needle and a good strong arm”</p>
<p>sister? you can totally beat your sister</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>This is your example? Why should your mom get in the middle of antics that are this childish?</p>
<p>I could never. That would be unorthodox. I just want her to stop.</p>
<p>I do not know how to get across to my mother that she has been spoiling her. I know my mother is the one who does this. She always gives in.</p>
<p>My sister wants a toy. I say no. Dad says no. Mom buys her the toy. She learns she can get anything she would like if she asks mom.</p>
<p>^She also starts screaming at stores when she does not receive what she would like. Also, I do not like it when she thinks it okay to take my trumpet outside and play it in the rain…[/yesterday’s event]</p>
<p>How your mother chooses to parent your sister is none of your business. The only person who has a right to comment on it is your father.</p>
<p>So, I just let it happen? I let her scream in stores? make a mess in my room while I am not home? take my trumpet out when she pleases? </p>
<p>umm thanks for the advice, I guess…</p>
<p>One beats and beats and beats one’s child until the child is no longer spoiled.</p>
<p>Tell them to dig a whole in the backyard, then make them sit in it while you fill it back in</p>
<p>Drive them someplace very far from home and tell them you will leave them if they continue to be a spoiled brat.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>This is the first you’ve mentioned about screaming in stores or making a mess in your room. If a kid screams in a store then they should immediately be removed from the location. If you are alone with her in the store then you leave immediately with her, not matter how inconvenient it is. If she makes a mess in your room, well that sucks. I’m not sure what to do about that. I think you should quit worrying about whether she touches your trumpet. She isn’t damaging it is she? She is probably just curious about it. If she touches your trumpet to get a rise out of you then don’t let it show that it bothers you. If she is just trying to get under your skin and she doesn’t get a reaction then she won’t have gotten what she wanted.</p>
<p>Thanks for the advice! I will end it soon. Thanks all. [/end thread]</p>
<p>I don’t think any of that will work, except maybe keeping the kid out of stores. Once my niece was throwing a tantrum in a restaurant, my brother took her outside, spanked her and told her she had to go around to everyone and apologies and stop crying or she’d never be allowed outside the house again. She damn will did go around apologizing and sniffling a bit and never throws a tantrum again. </p>
<p>I’d probably straight tackle my littlest nephew to the ground if he’s messing with my stuff when he shouldn’t and he won’t listen when I say stop. Usually if he touches something I say stop and glare at him and he does stop. I would probably just flick him in the back of the head if he did something like the trumpet-deal and didn’t stop (he does do that I’m-not-touching-you crud and I just flick him and say “was it worth it?”, he’s kinda like my little brother in that he likes to annoy me but I wouldn’t call him that spoiled)</p>
<p>I was kinda joking about beating but either you gain that evil-mother-glare, which I don’t think you or your mom naturally have, or you spank. And obviously stop spoiling but you don’t, your parents do. Did you ever talk to your mom about this?</p>
<p>I dont think your sis is spoiled, quite the opposite I think</p>
<p>she plays with your trumpet because she admires you and wants to be just like you,
she screams in stores because she’s just trying to get your attention and love</p>
<p>try seeing things her way for a moment, your sis probably adores you</p>
<p>^^I tried to talk to my mom about how it is kind of her fault…but it was so awkward. I feel like I am saying “Hey mom, you are not doing your job correctly.” and it is not my place to tell her that…</p>
<p>^I do not know how to reply.</p>
<p>Maybe talking to your dad to talk to your mom? I don’t know how I’d talk to my mom if she were doing that either, but she never has.</p>
