yeah i was rude to my sister [not gonna get into details] and my mom took away my cell phone, nintendo ds, and my ipod. it's been two days and she still won't give them back. she cracks pretty easily, but you have to say/do just the right things. any ideas?
p.s. if you're just going to tell me to respect and listen to my mother, save your typing time. i already do that it's just that i've learned my lesson and i just want my stuff back.

tell her that you are sorry you were rude to your sister and that you won't do it again(not)lol...and also say that you think in your opinion that you had a right to be rude to her and that she should come up with a different way of dicipline/punishment because just taking away your personal belongings(espicially those that you like ALOT) is not going to get you to quit arguing or whatever with your sister. well,i hope my advice worked and i wish the best of luck to you! hope you get your stuff back! P.S. make sure that if you go along with my ideas that you be nice about it or else i can bet you that they won't work!=)

Be upfront with her. Tell her you're sorry for being rude your sister and you'd like to know what you need to do to get your stuff back. Be prepared to work for it, though. She may be willing to make a deal, but she won't want you to feel like you're getting off scott free.
My daughter (who is now 25) was h*ll on wheels when she was a teen and would regularly get grounded for a month! Well, we all know that's a little unreasonable. So after a few days or a week, I'd tell her that she could be ungrounded if she did extra housework or babysitting her little sister, etc.
Good luck. Hope you get your stuff back soon! :D

If you are truely sorry, then you will have to go to your mother and said sorry that you were rude to your sister and say sorry to your sister infront of your mother. Also, tell her that you understand that you were wrong and that you will never do it again and you promise. Then you have to ask nicely to your mother to have your stuffs back. If she said yes, you better mean what you say because if you be rude again, your stuffs might get taken away again and you will never get it back. If she said no, don't whine, yell, or get mad. Tell her that you are sorry and ask her what do you have to do in order for her to give you your stuff back.

Quite frankly you sound like a brat. No ones going to listen to you so YOU save your typing time. And why do you so desperatly need electronics? There are these fun things called bikes that you might enjoy or maybe 'GASP' you can hang out with a friend. >:P

Dont be rude to your sister. If she pisses you off, just act like you dont care. Go listen to your iPod or play on you're DS. Just dont get in trouble and you'll be fine.
