How do I deal with my sister?

Question

She's 7 1/2 and always does bratty things that are occasionally painful and won't listen to anyone when they say stop. Or, at least, she stops until my parents are gone.

Answer 1

hmmm ignore her maybe

Answer 2

hit her back, she'll eventually learn to stop.

Answer 3

Say this: "If you dont stop that, then i'll destroy your (insert her prized possessions here)." or "I'm going to tell Mom if you do that one more time, and you're really gonna get it!" Saying those things might sound immature, but 7 year olds actually believe you.

Answer 4

Well.. it might be painful but just ignore her. eg. If your playing on the computer and she comes in... just carry on on the computer and ignore her no matter what... but maybe use the occasional "move!" or "get out of the way" Dont threaten her she'll just threaten you!

Dont smack her either because she'll proberly just tell your parents which wont give u any brownie points!

Ignoring shows her you dont care. Shes just trying to get your attention she might even be jealous of you! just carry on she'll see shes not getting a reaction and go off. Maybe you can try being nice to her if she pleads you to play a game with her occasionally say yes she'll appreciate it.
