Answer 1

and it sounds like you are what? 11 or 12 yrs. old?
come on, you have got to give some. cut her some slack.
especially if you know she has anger management problems--thats not teasing thats being cruel.
your sister should get some counselling before something does happen to you, someone else, or maybe even herself.
it wouldn't be so "fun" then would it?

Answer 2

Stop being a b*tch and teasing your sister. Can't you see that you're going to end up causing a lifelong hate and relationship problems between you two? Why don't you grow up and just leave her alone?

Anger issues are caused by someone or something. It's obvious, by your own admission, that you are the current cause of her frustration. Hope she doesn't end up hurting herself of you because of your immaturity. Otherwise you'll end up regretting it for the REST OF YOUR LIFE

Answer 3

I won't tell you to stop playful teasing but if it is causing pain, then it must stop. However from what you wrote, this doesn't seem to be the problem. I can't give you a definitive answer, since I don't know you or your sister, it sounds like preteen angst to me. I am assuming that when she says she is going to kill you it's not a SERIOUS threat, otherwise, there is DEFINITELY a problem.

Answer 4

Yeah, they can have an anger management problem when they are 10 yrs old or younger, I use to know a guy that was adopted his mother used drugs and drank alot when she was pregnant, he was really billant, but had the worse temper, like beat people up, they stuck him on medicine and in a hospital, but your sister doesn't need to be on medicine nor in the hospital. I don't know what she needs.

Answer 5

Don't you remember that age? It sounds to me like she's going through 'the change'. Nowadays kids go through puberty younger and younger, so it's probably just the hormonal/emotional thing she is going through. Have you ever tried sitting down with her, without the teasing, and talk to her? Maybe she is having issues with kids at school, or she's confused about how she feels, etc. Good luck to you.

Answer 6

Maybe you need anger management. Teasing someone to the point they lose control could be how you express anger. Sarcasm and gossip can be another way people express anger. Be kind to her even when she is angry. You need to model for her how to express anger properly.

Answer 7

THE BEST THING YOU CAN DO IS SEE IF YOUR MOM WANT TAKE HER TO THE DR IT SOUNDS LIKE SHE HAS ANGER MANGMENT PROBLEMS IF YOU DON'T [ FROM EXPERIANCE] SHE MAY HURT SOME ONE ELSE IF NOT U . AND ANOTHER THING I WOULD TELL HER SCHOOL COUNSLER ABOUT IT TOO ,CAUSE THERE MAY BE SOMETHING GOING ON AT SCHOOL AND SHE TAKES THE PROBLEMS OUT ON U FOR IT . BUT I WOULD DEFIANATLY TALK TO THE COUNSLER AND TO YOUR MOM . UR DAD AS WELL . I ALSO WENT TO THE LOCAL PREACHER TO . I SURE HOPE THIS HELPS IT HELPED WITH ME . GOOD LUCK

Answer 8

Accept the consequences of your teasing. It's not totally abnormal for kids to feel or say those things. What would be abnormal is if she were to act on them.

Answer 9

sounds like you may want to desire treatment or study a thanks to attend for your emotions. sounds like you bottle up anger then explode. my uncle is quite like that, the littlest issues set him off each so often and he's destroyed alot of furniture and walls contained in the approach. video games also set him off, he'd throw the controller on the television troublesome merely because he lost a nascar race. i imagine taking aggresion out on a on-line sport is an illustration of conserving in anger about different issues then exploding in rage contained in the privateness of your position.

Answer 10

First and foremost, teasing does NOT come naturally and you DO need to stop. Your parents need to seek counseling for your sister and you need to be supportive in any way that you can.
