Answer 1

have your parents talk to a caserworker from DCFS about placing her in a group home or detention center for a week. That should straighten her out pretty good and make her a little more respectful.

Answer 2

Hey Dude!

I know how u may feel since I have a sis, too. So here are some ways which I think will be very much useful..
1. Plz let her know that she meant a lot to everyone in the family.
Make sure to show her that she is cared and loved so much
since girls at that age wrongly thought that they have not given
enough attention from their family.
2. Find some ways to express that she, too, have responsibilities
for everyone at home. But plz make it gentle and otherwise she
will explode..
3. Plz do try to take enough time with her...to talk, to have meal
together, to walk, to play some games and everytime be ready
to let her show her feelings and opinions.
4. Do try to be patient..sometimes, even when u lose your
temper, try ur best to hide it from her eyes and just tell her
how hurt it is for u and request her never to do it again.
5. They may have some problems which they don't wanna
discuss with others.Plz do find their problems and try to
help her.
6. They may have some friends who lead her into wrong path.
Don't scold at her or show your opinion for her friends..Just
keep an eye upon her so that you can stop her from doing
something illegal and plz try to acknowledge her the price
of money.
7. Plz be a dear big bro and let her know that u will stand beside
her no matter what happen.
8. If she show some interest, plz try to take her to some religious
places ( sorry, I don't know in which religion u believe..so if u r
buddhist, then plz take her to some temple or pagoda and let
her speak to wise elders so that she can learn some way to
peacefulness..if u r christian, then plz try to take her to church,
tell her some of the interesting matters from bible, make her
speak to some preacher...( plz don't let them preach her..but
let her learn some ways so that she can see her mistakes ))
9. Plz gently make her know that she is on a wrong way ( girls at
that age don't wanna be told just like that...so plz be gentle )
and that u will try to help her to get her feet on the right path
again.

These are some of the ways I learn from one of my neighbours
who has a very bad boy as her son..She did try as above and finally she won her son's heart and he is now really good and nice to others..So plz don't give up and try everything...And Good Luck!

Answer 3

Well, by being a responsible yet caring sibling to her, you should confront her about her actions and explain to her (in a nice way) that you don't want to see her go down the path of self destruction. Explain to her that you're worried about her and would like her to stop doing all the negative things she does, even if it takes time and patience, because you care about her.
If after you talk to her, she doesn't listen and keeps getting in trouble & being disrespectful, then it is out of your hands. If your words can't help it will be up to your parents discipline to teach her lessons. Hopefully, this is just a phase... so please have a talk with her, somethings could be bothering her that she could possibly need to get off of her chest anyway.

Answer 4

i am not sure what the right answer is all ican tell you is to do something now!!!my sister is 31yrs old and started out much like your sister. she has not made good choices in life and her lifestyle shows it. my parents did not know what to do with her and her wild behavior when she was young and now her life is a mess. please look into help at all cost because this could be a road that leads to a long hard road for everyone involved. i could go into more detail but i would have us here all night so you are more than welcome to email me sometime.
remember to be strong and tough you can be her friend when she is grown. good luck and be strong.

Answer 5

Not an answer but when you get the right one please let me know. I have a sister/sisters/mother who took a journal of mine (that I kept during my preg.) containing the events that took place during my 9 months. The one and only sad thing is that they took it two days after we just put my Little Ethan to rest at 3 1/2 mo old

Answer 6

I think spending time with her and showing a good support system. Be a role model..include her in activities. Invite her to places...even a simple..''How was your day?" or "wanna grab something to eat?" The older I got the closer I got with my brother and the less fighting =)

Answer 7

Your mothers and dads and/or you're able to be able to did something to ur sister or will possibly no longer! the project is, your sister is disillusioned approximately something and you all are actually not talking approximately it! verbal replace and understand-how is the foremost. Spend extra time with your sister and attempt to aknowledge her desires. good success

Answer 8

I don't believe that someone who will do almost anything when their drunk can help this young lady.Sorry,but I read your blog or whatever.But it sounds Like she has a problem with drinking.It looks like you do to.If you really want to help her,quit drinking yourself,and start showing her an example big brother.

Answer 9

You can take her to one of those scared straight things at jail. Maybe your local police department can arrest her for drugs or whatever and keep her in jail for a week or so. .

Answer 10

Send her to one of those boot camps.
