what is the best way


Question Posted Saturday July 26 2008, 1:07 pm

my sister always hits my brother. ALL THE TIME. for nothing. And he is always left with very very bad marks. And they are both old enough to stop it. They're 14. And its ridiclous. Also, even if you SEE her hit him she will say she never did it. Its pathetic! And you can try and try and she will never admit it. Its been going for sometime now and today she hit him really bad he was bleeding.All because he didnt feel like going for a walk with her. My mum went ballistic and my mum would neevr hurt a fly. She told her off but this time whacked her but not hit her. Its wasnt HARD but it was sure to hurt a little...but my mum hit her with a loo roll so it couldnt of hurt that bad but she did. My mum said to her if your going to hit him, i will give you a taste of your own medicine. My mum is tired of talking to her - she never listens and its the first time she used "violence". I dont really agree with violence. So what is the best way to teach my sister a lesson. I dont think my mum was right..

Call for a family meeting. Is there any way for you to sit everyone down and find a way to get the reason why the hitting has happened?

There could be some deeper issue at work here that is happening without your knowledge. Why does your sister target your brother? Instead of getting her to stop, you could ask the root of the problem. What's the motive?

Not too many things "just happen" for no reason. An attack like that could be a deep seated resentment or something.

cheers,

well i cant blame your mom for acting out of anger but i believe your right hitting should never be the solution. i think if you talk to your sister and find out why she feels the need to him then you might get an answer you can work with. like if she says she feels jealous or if its compulsive then you can start asking her to talk about the way she feels instead of acting it out and you can say like you will reward her for every time she responds to her anger in a positive way instead of lashing out or if she refuses and tells you she doesnt know why she does it and continues to do it then remove her priveleges from her every time she does it till she has no choice but to stop in order to gain them back
