So my little sister (12) is being very abusive to my parents and me/other siblings and i wanted to know what i can do about it .
shes a very violent child who would beat someone up over not getting a cookie,my parents refuse to do anything about it even though she has seriously hurt them before. Im very concerned that shes going to kill one of us.Any advice on what to do would be appreciated.
please discipline her immediatey, you dont want this behaviour to persist. teach her to ask nicely even if it means raising your voice.
Hi Pastel, You sound distressed. Ideally, a child is best disciplined by parents since children fear parents. Then come siblings, often elder siblings who can be stern for a prolonged period to send a clear message. Your situation doesn’t sound like it can be handled with talks. Since you mentioned that your parents have refused to do anything even though she has hurt ‘them’ that means she is set loose to do as she please. Such a child might be like a mad bull. While teaching or controlling her, she might hit and abuse you which may hurt you emotionally and physically. The core problem is your parents’ indifference. The reason might be how emotionally burdened they are, or they are too fond of her or they feel she will be better as she gets older. Your parents will require a powerful elder whom they listen to. Can you think of a relative, school authority, their friend, or may be Church priests or other religious authority your parents talk to? If someone from outside can convince them that she is becoming aggressive and hurting everyone at home, then they may take it seriously. You can speak to a childline if you just need to talk it out with someone. May be, they will offer some help or just listen to you. Why do you think she might kill someone? Has she been fatal wounding someone? If yes, then there’s some actions you can take. I hope someone helps you with a child helpline in your country. Try to stay away from her so she doesn’t get her frustrations out on you. As is your parents aren’t willing to take it seriously.
ok i think i need to say some things.one shes autistic,so she dose not understand things like the permanents of death,two she has tried to murder others in the past ,2 months ago she tried to strangle me to death over the fact i was trying to stop her from abusing my dog.also all my parents can really do is what i like to call the human straight jacket ,since children’s aid wont really allow you to do anything else about it.she has only got worse with age.she wont listen to anyone ,i honestly dont think she cares.she will hurt others for her own gain what ever that may be.
honestly im thinking about calling the police next time.I honestly dont care if she goes to juvie at this point she is like a little demon .
can you help me look for laws about this,im from Ontario Canada i just cant deal with this any more.
also my parent do try they have just ran out of options on what to do
I understand and sympathize with your current situation, but it’s far beyond our capabilities to help you. We’re not trained professionals and this is a situation that requires professional assistance.
Please reach out to professionals who can help, like a mental health professional who works with autistic clients, or someone you trust who works with your sister regularly (for example, an occupational therapist). Best of luck to you all.
i just want others opinions before i do anything.
