You should get used to that. It's only family that's permitted to act that way to you and go scot free. Remember, they don't do it cos they hate you but they look up to you and wish they were like you. It's disguised admiration. When u understand it this way, you won't have problems with your siblings. |

Carsonv: You should get used to that. It's only family that's permitted to act that way to you and go scot free. Not when he does it to everybody. And yet demands respect from younger ones. |

If you put it to heart, you might just ruin a better future relationship. You're the senior, you should take the initiative. Have you noticed that most adult siblings who have a strained relationship now is mostly because of something that happened during growing up. If it'd make you more relaxed, if you're really pissed off just address the misbehavior and forgive immediately...like it never happened! As I said earlier, only family has the freedom to disrespect you n go free. |

This is common when the elder is female and the immediate younger is male The Younger male think he is stronger |

dayokanu: This is common when the elder is female and the immediate younger is male Lol...not always so. My younger sister never one day believed I could beat her. Back then she'd brag to ears that were ready to listen that she beats me at home. Lol. That was because I had(still do) so much luv for her n never laid hands on her during fights(just block her random hand flings). But when maturity set in, she realized how much I loved her. Now she adores me like a hero. Now what if I took to provocation every childishness she puts up cos dat Gurl used to be annoying? We would have just bn tolerating each other now. |

D first time she opened hastily&d drink poured, I corrected, second time, same I corrected 3rd I got angry & shouted @ her. See d arg below;lol,to me i think you didnt handle the issue well,there is nothing wrong in correcting your younger one but maybe you did it in a way that attracted attention or embarassed her,if that was the case,its natural for her to revolt.you dont need to tell her to think thereby making her feel less of a human being,if i was in your shoes and i correct her once and she does it again,snatch the thing from her hand in a way that wont attract attention and show her gently,then say can you see what i did,smile over it and tease her,e.g see your head,agbaya,you cant even do anything without abasha,is that how you will behave if it was your boyfriend that took you out.that way you have corrected her without messing with her self esteem.infact that is what ill do if i had a kid sis who did that. Then again maybe because you rebuked her in the presence of her younger one,no one likes that,shouting at your younger sibling in the presence of another younger one. Another way you could have handled it was to let her do what she wanted to do without threatening to slap her ( i dont subscribe to threatening anyone with violence publicly or privately) depending on her age,i dont know but you dont treat a young adult like you are talking to a 5 year old.she has a mind of her own too.anyway after she did all her yamayama and you got down from the bus,you should have told her (without the younger one knowing) that do you know i dont like what you did or the way you did this this and this,then she will apologize. I could threaten my kid bro with cane or slaps when he was under 9 year old but starting from 10 i used verbal lashing however not in the presence of his younger one. You are a big bro,not a competitor with your younger siblings.use force (not violence) when necessary and use communication when necessary 1 Like |
