How do I convince my mum that I don't start fights with my sister or lie about them?

Answer #1

When a fight breaks out, be the mature one and igone it. I know it’s hard, and I have the same problem with my sister. When she is mean to you, just don’t say anything, and tell your mom. If she thinks you’re a tattle-tail, suck it up and be brave. (I feel for you!!)

Another way to be more mature is to do well in school. Totally unrelated, you say? Not really. The more mature one is generally more belived, as they are more reliable.

As a whole, be the ‘better’ person. Better grades, nicer attitude, cleaner room (your mom will love that!), generous and kind, it’s a package deal.

You’d be suprised how easy it is to just ‘grow up’. I’m 13, but mom says I’m more mature than both all of my sibilings (ages 8, 12, and 22!)

I have my own faults (and I know it!!) but I try as hard as I can, and so can you!

Good luck, and sorry for the long reply, and I hope I don’t sound ‘braggy!!’

Answer #2

What do i do when my sister punches me and tells my mum i punched her? :’(

Answer #3

WHOA, she does that?! I feel so bad for you! How old is she? How old are you?

If you cry, and run to your mom before her, there’s no question what happened. Buuut…. if she says you hit HER, you can show her the bruise (if there is one).

Do you have seprate rooms?

If so, when you are both home, ‘hide’ in yours and study or call a friend. Tell your mom about this when you (and she!) are both calm. Also, when you talk about it, make sure your sister is not home, or she’ll be sooo mad!

Answer #4

Shes 17 and im 16. my mum caught me throwing her out my room after she had punced me in the head.My mum never says to me ‘your lying’ but she always askes me about what my sister had said and goes quiet after i say something different.I was the one crying and saying what had happened but my sister was the one shouting and calling me a pycho and saying the oppersite.Whenever we do fight she always gets physical first and makes me the bad one by missing out what she did. It hurs because i dont lie about the fights no matter how bad i was because i know i never start them :’(

Answer #5

Hmmm….. You do need to tell your mom. Write down a list of examples so you don’t end up without a single one when she asks you.

Things like that account, or a more recnt one (don’t show her the list, just use it to remember). When she gets physical, don’t fight back, instead RUN. You don’t hurt her, she has NO grounds to yell. Try not talking to her. It will get on her nerves a bit, but she wouldn’t a single reason to complain. (Not completly, just don’t start a conversation. When she speaks to you, keep it sort and simple.)

Also, being the better person works even better if you are younger. if will show your mom that SHE is being imature, not you.

Answer #6

You ought to tell your sister to take anger-management :l If you want to convince your mum, how about sitting her down and have her read a well written letter explaining what your sister is ACTUALLY doing? Letters can be rather powerful.

Answer #7

What do i say?? I dont know how to start it.

Answer #8

Talking to her about it is easier than writing. Next tiem you guys are alone, ask her if you can tell her something. then explain your situation to her.

Answer #9

Just ignore her and dont fight back but anyways if you both are fighting in the first place then your both guilty
