Hi guys

i have a problem in my family.........my younger sister keeps swearing all the bad words as if she is saying them casually.........the "F" word and other crappy ones

she keeps calling my youngest brother butt-face every minute....it sounds so disgusting...

im her elder sister.......and since i learned driving this year, she was able to join after school activities. i had to drop her and pick her up from the school...........

after being done all that, she called be a BITCH in front of me........
i was just sooooooooo schocked...

instead of me reacting to her, i told my mom that she swore at me.....she didn't even say a word to her and neither did my dad......

i was so upset and i cried sooooooooo much..

i just don't know what to do😭😭😭

Don't worry sweetheart. It happens when a kid reaches a specific age, and start to copy their friends. Espeically the swearing part. My brother used to do that last year, and then I tried to make him understand that its not the right thing to use, since it does show how cheap a person it as times.

Though your siblings are still kids, they will understand better now, than later. They don't even know the meanings of them at the moment. My brother did understand, and he doesnt usually swear anymore. Even if it takes time, it will work. I am sure they are really lucky to have an elder sis like you, who takes care of them so much. 😃

It is really sad that your parents aren't saying anything to her. Being the elder sister, you have the right to discipline her when necessary. Don't talk to her, don't drop her & pick her up from her activities - that is a punishment on its own. If she asks what is wrong then tell her you will not associate with someone who has no respect for her elder sister or values & morals that are important.

I personally would have given her a tight slap but that is just me. I am the youngest in my family & if I misbehaved, my brother disciplined me as well as my parents.

Hope this helps.

If she was younger, I would've said she would grow out of it, but she's 17 you said, right?

Then it's a problem and very unfortunate that your parents find nothing wrong with it.

As an elder sister, you do have a responsiblity for it. I would say talk to her in ease. Like maybe go out for coffee for something and explain the situation. If she doesn't listen, then you let her be on her own. There's nothing much you can do after that if your parents aren't responding to it.

I guess in spite of doing so much for her if she calls you names, then just don't do that for her anymore. Let her know that you will not put with it and it's either your help or her swearing.

Tell your parents exactly what is going on - as tough as it may be. The truth will set you free. Tell them that you cannot tolerate this behaviour & sadly they are not doing anything about it only indicating that they approve of this kind of behaviour. Ask them straight out if they approve of this. Confront them, don't sweep it under the carpet. Tell your parents that you find your sister's behaviour, attitude etc absolutely unacceptable & it is time they take responsibility for this - you are not your sister's parent & disciplining her should not be your responsibility. Tell them to step up to the plate & deal with this - it is not your problem. Good luck!
