If you ignore Jody and don't listen to what she tells you I promise you it's going to piss her off and she'll eventually realize that she can't boss you around anymore and that she's going to try doing it to one of your other sisters now.
If anything you could always sit down and talk to your mom or step dad about it so they know what's going on. This way Jody can't go back and tell them that you're being mean when you're just trying to ignore the problem. [ EvilCheshire's advice column | Ask EvilCheshire A Question ]
orphans answered Monday October 31 2005, 9:13 pm: well the truth is, all little siblings tell on the older ones because they think that they will be forgotten or lefted out and since you are her only step sister she feels that she can take out all her anger on you because you are the step sister to her. you just have to lay the rule down and dont be afraid of her mom because her mom cant do anything to you. you cant be soft or very goddy goody nice to her but show her that you are still there for her.

She probably looks up to you. If you see her only on weekends her time with you is limited. If you call her a name it probably upsets her because she probably is taking what you say seriously...even if you are just kidding.
She is probably close to her mom. When mom gets upset it probably makes things even worse...especially if mom doesn't like you.
Try being a little nice to her. She is the youngest and I'm sure her parents getting a divorce probably hit her pretty hard.
