He is basically a 12 year old in a 19 year old's body. Maybe you could practice saying no. have your cousin play the role of your sister and your cousin trying to force you into stupid things. Practice saying no and maybe you won't get into so much trouble. I know I am way younger than you. I know how to give pretty good advice. One more thing, Don't fall for your sister's peer presure. Why don't you have a talk with your mom when you go over next time and talk to her about what your sister is doing. I seriously hopes this helps.

Brandi_S answered Friday August 15 2008, 9:51 pm: Well, I know this probably isn't what you want to hear, but you make your own choices in this life. When your sister talks you into things, you choose to allow her to do so. You CAN choose to say no, and stand firmly behind that decision.
Don't let your mom get the short end of the stick, here. That's not fair to her at all. Your mom wants to see you, and I wager you want to see her.
So go do it, and remember YOU are responsible for YOUR choices. Say NO.
