Be happy that she looks up to you. I know little kids can be annoying so get creative. When she asks you another question then tell her "it may happen if you are a good girl and brush your teeth everyday" or "it may happen if you clean up your toys after you are done playing with them".You are the big sis and before you know it she will be the teenager and may not give you the time of day then so just enjoy her curiosity now.

Sounds like little sis is getting a kick out of getting a rise out of you. Answer her once and then ignore the continued questioning. She will give up if you don't play the game. Of course she will keep trying to engage you, don't give in. When she wants you to engage in any other game than playing 50 questions, engage her in appropriate activity, like playing candy land or fixing her dolly. Set limits of what is acceptable interaction with you and stick to them. Example 2 games of candy land not 5 or 6, because she is likely to push your boundaries with even appropriate interactions. She is likely what is termed a strong willed child and she needs to know that she can not always get her way.

She's 4. She wants your attention. So distract her by playing a game, reading a book for her, letting her help you do something. She's found a way to aggravate you and it's working. She won't stop until you stop overreacting to her behavior. I had little brothers and had to learn the hard way too. Dad told me the same things I'm telling you and it worked.

Why are you so impatient with your little sister, I wonder? Sometimes it helps to remember that you were 4 once too and asked all the silly questions. She clearly loves you a lot and looks up to you, and that is why she seeks you out. She wants your attention and your approval. It may help to think of it like that. Try to enjoy her. Good luck!

Why not try giving her a good answer? LOL, she will grow out of it then she will be 14 and be annoying like you are to those older than you. Thats life, kid.

hey girl, this comes from personal experience.. from my son (12) how he handled his sister... had the same problem and one day he just sat her down and very calmly answered her question very much to the point and I think she was so shocked that he didn't get mad at her it shut her up for quite awhile... try it honey it might work on your sister too... good luck !!
