Can't sleep because of my oldest 19 yr sister (Can't she be civilized?)
Question Posted Friday November 4 2011, 12:46 am
IT's almost 12 at night and I have school tomoro. I'm tired of my oldest sister living in our home. Her time is overdue and she runs the entire upstairs and the house, eats up the majority of our food, is greedy,selfish,and disrespectful. She has no common sense at all. I can never sleep in my room or down stairs on the couch cuz I hear the her showering since she doesn't close the door and her room door light is on as well. Our house is a ipen house, it has normal walls with openings like a window with no glass so you can hear everything. It's like arches. So I can't ever sleep. I'm only 5 feet and am 14....what do I do. My mom doesn't take it seriously yet she is always scolding me on getting to bed on time and all of that crap. Can someone help me? I want to start going to bed early but cant because of my sister. If only YOU KNEW......

I always thought when she was younger she was disrespectful and ignorant. Now looking back I didn't help much with the situation. When my sister listened to her music she would blast it like her room was a bar or club it was so obnoxious. Maybe what you should do is get some ear plugs and maybe a sleeping mask. And remember there might be some things that you do that might annoy sister. At the end of the day she is your sister and you're going to have to learn how to live with her. And later on when you move out you'll have to deal with whomever you are living with because there is always going to be something that bothers you with the perosn you are living with. Good luck!
