I have an 8 year old little sister, and I know what you mean. My sibling gets everything she wants, and throws these temper tantrums when something doesn't go her way. When she is angry, she makes everyone else grumpy. I am nice to her when she is nice to me, but whn she gets on my nerves alt, I break. I explode at her and get in trouble. My advice is to keep your anger at your sister in when your parents are around, then annoy her when they aren't. If she tattles, say "She hit me really hard, so I didn't want to hit back!" My parents like not hitting back, so that works for me. But always have an excuse, and an annoying strategy ready.

I know how you feel. When ever I go into my room I always end up finding him trying to steal my stuff. His excuse is "mum said I could". I then have to get him out of my room which isn't easy cause I always have to do it physically. So I push him out of the room and he starts fake crying and screaming to get my mums attention and when my mum gets upstairs he instantly stops crying. Then he tells my mum that "he hit me so hard that I started crying". And then my mum says I need pysciatric therapy when I actually haven't done anything!!!
My advice is to go to another family member and explain to them whats going on and they can help.

reader, anonymous, writes (16 June 2010): oh i know how you feel, I have two little sisters and i can so relate. Both of my sistrs are teens now, but as they grew older i noticed how they teamed up at times, this maybe because they have shared a room most of their life. now a days, they love to go into my room and watch tv, even though its ok, they take advantage of the fact i let my younger sister use it. I also do alot for them and they are never grateful. My parents at times take my side at times,but i still get into trouble even though i am 20 years old and they are 16 and 14.I have trouble keeping my frustrations to myself and keeping my emotions under control when i get into an arguement. With my parents even if I was justifying what was going on i get into trouble even when it was their fault to begin with.Ignoring them at times is really difficult at times.

I have a little sister just like yours. & I know exactly how you're feeling. What you should do is, just talk to her, & try to make things better. Little siblings don't know half of the time over the things that they're doing nor saying. & when they're older & you bring it up, they'll realize how much of a burden they used to be. I promise you that she'll eventually grow out of it. It's a normal phase & it's something we all big brothers & sisters have to deal with. There's really nothing drastic or huge we can do to stop them from bothering us, actually. I mean if our parents don't do anything about it, then all we can do is try to work with them, no matter how impossible or hard it may seem to be. So just try it, & see what happens. :]

We fight alot about everything but like you said, parents seem to on their side all the time, but I've learnt that you gotta look both ways, not just your point of view but also your sister's, even if it takes you a whole lotta consideration to decide to be the 'wrong' even when you are 100% sure that you are the 'right'. When I tried to do this all that effort made me think: "She won't even notice me trying to be kind to her, so why bother?" but I realise that she will acknowledge it. Sure it takes time and takes abit of effort but it works for me. Nowadays we get along fine most of the time but doesn't mean we don't fight anymore. I now realize that most of those fights are actually really me not wanting to admit that I am the wrong one and learnt that all it takes is a little word called 'sorry'. It's alot harder than it sounds but it sure pays off :)

reader, anonymous, writes (28 July 2008): My sisters do not borrow my stuff (probably because we dont like the same stuff), but they do many other things. I say tell your parents that you don't care if she looks up to you and that you have no sympathy to her because of that, and that it doesn't give her the right to invade your privacy. So if you convince your parents, they will deal with her.

I tell them to stay out, and I complain to my parents but they just say it means they look up to me and admire me. Sometimes i wish they would admire me less. . . So i just try and do it back to them but then my parents tell me that i should "respect my sisters privacy". AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! I dont think you can win against little sisters. . . But maybe if your parents will let you lock your doors then YOU could keep your little sisters out!

trust me, i know exactly how your feeling. no one understands what your going through and your sister always gets her own way, no matter what she does. if she does something like barge into your bedroom and take stuff, she doesnt get told off, but when you do it to her.... you get busted. i have recently decided to totally ignore her... i know this sounds hard n trust me it is... but i'm saving up for a bedroom lock and you should be too. this will allow you to have some privacy and trust me............ your not the only one with a spoilt little sister!

ok im just going to stick up a bit for the younger sisters as i feel it is my duty. Has it ever occured to you that she looks up to you?? that she only uses your stuff because its urz? and everything you have is so much cooler than hers? even if its not its stil that mentality. i know beczuse i do the Exact same thing with my older sister. she has the coolest clothes. the nicest bags. and i look up to her. alot. even though it drives her mad!!!! however a little dose of her own medicine wouldnt be out of the question. thers nothing that will sort out her behaviour then you doing the same thing. if she complains then u explain that she does it all the time why cant you?
it sorted me out
but becareful. if she is as skillfull as i suspect she will be (younger sisters have a talent for this) she may just sneak into your room and use your makeup when your not ther. so hide your valuables and take the smaller stuff with you if you can. and i agree to getting that lock ;)
good luck
and try to remember that she does look up to you.

Assuming you have separate rooms could you ask your parents to have a lock on your bedroom door where both you and them could have a key to it.
You need to explain to your sister that you will not tollerate her behaviour.
Surely your parents would understand your need for a bit of privacy at your age even if your sister doesn't.

 I know what you going through. MY sister is just as bad if not worse. She is always giving attitude and when I say some thing about it its me that gets in trouble. Even when I just stay quiet i'm in trouble.
Its a normal thing, the youngest child gets everything they want and never gets in trouble. Only thing you can do is ignore it as hard as it is. And if you have the key to your bedroom use it. It personaly comes in very handy to keep her out. Other then that unfortunatly there is nothing you can do.
