Ok so basically my sister gets everything that she wants...
Actually what happens is that evertime I finally get something I've been wanting forever, she suddenly thinks she should get it, too.
For instance, whenever I'm going out with friends or they're coming over, she always has to go out with her friends, too.
Or how I had to wait until 8th grade to wear makeup, and finally when my mom let me, my sister asked if she could wear makeup too (she's in 6th grade) and my mom said it was fine and she could use MY new makeup.
Also, she recently got grounded for a month (at least), and mom and dad STILL let her go over other people's houses, or her friend's coming over here, and go out shopping and go on the computer and stuff.
And just now (which really blew it) I had to wait until my 14th birthday to get a cellphone, right? And I've been asking for one for a long time. So I just recently upgraded my old phone, and now my sister gets to have my old phone! And she's only 12! She's sharing my bill of unlimited text and internet...
It's just all very frustrating. I work up the right to do things, and just when I get the privilege, she suddenly thinks she deserves it, too.
So I really need help on what to do and say. I've talked to it about my parents a lot but my dad always has excuses (ex. but this new phone won't cost anything, and it has to go somewhere) and my mom is just stuck on the idea that we get everything equally.
Also, I'd really appreciate if people didn't say things like "You're a spoiled little brat" or "She deserves that stuff, too" because I'd really rather not be yelled at about it anymore. And I also don't need the whole "She admires you by coping you" thing because that won't help at all.
Other than that any ideas will be appreciated.
Thank you very much! : ) (link)

something you may what too try with your sitiuation is instead of talking to o your parents about how it is unfair talk too you sister it seem like both of you are close in age and it wouldent hurt too see what she has to say. after you talk too your sister see what happends and maybe if you be kind to your sister she'll be kind too you . hope it helps

well ive had a job at dunkin donuts for about a week now. but i only work once a week because there are too many people working there and no one has many hours. -.-'' anyways, so i go in today, and for about thirty minutes, all im doing is standing around doing nothing. everyone has everything covered, im not really needed. the manager even told me that i might have to be sent home early cuz i wasnt needed. this disappointed me, but whatever. then about 45 minutes of doing nothing, i start feeling really dizzy. then i feel nauseous and i start blacking out. so i go to sit down and the lady asks me if i want to go home, since i felt sick. and i said yes. so i called my mom and she said she'd come and get me. when she came to pick me up, all she did was yell at me and basically accuse me of faking it and just being lazy. she wouldnt listen to a thing i was saying. then when she dropped me off at the house, she said i had to go to bed and that i couldnt go anywhere. i was pretty pissed at her, so i went to bed and tried to go to sleep. then when my dad came home, he had asked me what happened, what was wrong, and i just broke down crying and saying i didnt like working, i hated it, i hated the job, the hours sucked, the money wasn't that much, and that mom was being a bitch and stuff. so i pretty much convinced myself i was gonna quit. when i calmed down, i went to go tell my mom i was going to start looking for a different job, and that i was quitting. she got really pissed and basically kept calling me pathetic and stupid and that i was just a big disappointment. finally i just walked out and got sick of it all. then i went on a walk and called a friend and while we were talking i had an epiphany and went to go tell my dad about it; that i was going to keep working there, but looking for a different job while doing that. and in my free time, go volunteer at the library. i was excited because my dad said it was a good idea, and so i went to tell my mom and she wouldnt listen. she just kept rolling her eyes and saying she didnt wanna hear what i had to say and said she didnt want to talk about it anymore.
so, my mom pretty much hates me now. just because i left sick on my second day of working. she wont look at me or talk to me, and everytime we do talk, she just yells and screams and its driving me nuts. how can i get her to calm the hell down and just listen to me?? i want to make her proud of me but apparently thats just not possible anymore! any help is greatly appreciated. 16/f (link)

i blive the answer too this question could be many more than just one simply answer, in ways it could be hard for your mom too understand you when your trying too talk to her when shes upset. so maybe instead you should only consintrate on finding a new job and working well at it and when your mother sees that you are very hard working and is not lazy she will say sorry and then she will see a new light in you . and possibly talk too your day more about how you can help calm your mom down and get her too listen too you. hope that will help
