Problems with sister??

Question

my older sister is a little wild and always gets all of the attention. i tried to talk to my mother, but that didnt go anywhere. i am a good student but she always is the center of attention. what can i do to get a little more attention?

Answer 1

Sad isn't it. The bad ones or maybe I should say wild ones always seem to be the favorite. Is that the word you are looking for? If it hasn't already, you probably are beginning to feel the resentment not only towards your sister, but also your mom. The only thing you can do is not copy sister. What works for one does not usually work for the other. Why don't you see what mom's interest is...maybe if you have the same interest you can do some things together and start building a stronger bond. Don't change, you will not be happy in the end

Answer 2

do something extreme or unexpected like participate in a school play,or doing a talent show, or joining something really cool, like motorcross and have your family come see u

the posters above are absolutely right, you dont have to compete with her, if you do decide to join something make sure its positive and make sure you let yourself enjoy it, dont do things solely for other peoples approval you will be disappointed. you are on the right track, start thinking about your future and what you want to do to make the best of it, show some initiative and go join things or volunteer, good luck to you.

Answer 3

Be yourself

Don;t try to beat anyone

Don't try to compete...i garuntee that your sister wishes she was more like you

Answer 4

its the same with me,

my little sister gets the attention.

when i get really good grades my parents are like "well done..."

but when she gets a lower grade then me its like "well done! lets get you a treat!"

ugh. i hate my parents but i just let it pass over and listen to some anger-moving songs.

it helps me feel less angry.

but less forgiving too.

you could try to ignore your parents once in  a while if they ignore you too.

Answer 5

well you can try to get straight a's or get a whole new look, save up money for it!!!!

youll get attention that way(:

Answer 6

This is not a nice situation you can be in not to mention the emotional feelings burning inside of you like ( Hot Water in a Kettle ).  

What you first have to do is to have friends you can trust evaluate your personality. You never know there could be some thing about you that is having you getting no were with your parents; i'm not suggesting that there is some thing wrong about you. Then again it is prudent that you get this done as we all do need to change things in our personality to be a better person.
