do you have any secrects on her? use that agianst her...set up a fake diary and write about her in it and how it bugs you how she is always going thur your things leave it out maybe she will read it and get the point..if not just be like "hey if i go buy you candy will u stop touching my things?" Little kids love candy!

well what III would do...I dont keep a diary, but if i did and had your problem , I would have 2 diaries, one i would write just stuff like " I Had a good day, school is fun, i have to go byee" and put that one where your little sibling can find it , but look like your trying...and then have another one and write the real stuff in there and hide it in the toilet...ziplock bag, in the toilet, not the place you actually pee in lol, the one with the top and stuff, with the pump. but yeah just do that, itll shut em up :)

It's almost impossible to shut up siblings! I have 2 little brothers, so I have the same problem. The best thing you can do is first, get a lock on your bedroom door. Second, ignore your little sister. Trust me , it'll annoy the crap out of her! Just pretend shes not even there and don't look at her. She'll eventually, be quiet. As for the diary, you should write something in it about her. Nothing really mean, just say stuff like "it really hurts me when I can't trust my little sister to respect my privacy, I respect her." you know just stuff to make her feel a little guilty. If that doesn't work, tape your diary to your ceiling, so she can't reach it! Lol! seriously, though, it will probably work!
hoped i helped!

Me being a little sister myself I am heart broken that you feel that way about your sister. If you want to hind your diary I suggest the toliet put it in a zip lock bag and hide it there no one will look there unless the toliet over flows and When you bath its right there so you can have privacy.

Try hiding your diary somewhere high, like on top of a book shelf. They might climb up with a chair so make sure it is far back enough that they can't see it. If this means you can't reach it just use a chair. You could get a key diary or a lock to close your diary.
If you have your own room, make sure they know that they can't EVER come in without your permission or knocking. Try and tell them this in a friendly way. If you share a room with one or more of your sisters, try the "This is my half/third/whatever and this is yours" method. They are not allowed over the invisible line without asking.
Knowing how to shut little sisters up depends on their age- my little sister used to be the biggest brat on the earth but when she reached around 8 years old she became a little angel- well, almost! Part of stopping small annoying beings from being so fustratingly annoying is understanding and spending time with them. I know exactly what you are thinking- Aghhhhhhhhhhhhh! If your sisters are your friends they tend to be less annoying. Try talking or spending time with them quite alot-don't forget hugs, e.c.t. They are usually perfectly aware that you think they are brats and this, strangly enough, seems to make them live up to "brat status". If you convince them otherwise they won't annoy you as much.
Hope I helped, if you are in more sister trouble just send me a question.
Zoinatrobe.
Sorry about the length.

Well you could get a key diary. Those are good except you have to keep track of the key. I would put your diary like above the fridge. Somewhere they cant reach and wouldnt think of. Or in your sock drawer-trix

well.. uhh... i think you should just kinda keep them up to date on the things going on in your life, there interested and they wanna know whats going on, just try to explain to them that you need your privacy, but give them updates and i'm sure that will help out.... best of luck!!

Ok~ i know exactly how you feel on this one. My little sister isnt as bad as she used to be, now that we have gotten older, but she used to snoop through my things all the time. I think it's just part of being a little sister or something. The first thing I learned to do was lock my door whenever I left~ you might try doing that. Oh, and if you have a diary, hide it somewhere thats absolutely impossible to find (not somewhere obvious). Try somewhere in your closet, like under some shoes or something. (Just make sure you put it there after you write in it every single time). Oh, and when you find out the answer as to how to shut up a little sister, please LET ME know on that one. lol!

Ask your parents to get you a little lock-box, or a trunk with a pad combination lock, so you can keep your stuff in it. They should be pretty understanding. As for your diary, maybe you should get a diary with a key and a lock or something. To get your sisters to shut up, ignore them, don't let it bother you, they will have nothing better to do than to shut up, or you could just get them back. Hope I helped. -Angel
