I can't stand my older sisters, HELP!!!!!!!!?

Question

I have two older sisters, one 31 and one 28. I live with my mother and younger sister, my mom is a single parent who has been single for 7 years and hasn't dated anyone since my stepfather left us and she is on a fixed income.My sisters are better off then us, one married a man whose family owns a company that she works for and one lives with her boyfriend and give him all her money.The problem is every time they get something new they have to call and brag about it,I'm not jealous just upset that they know we are having a hard time and they continue to do this to us.When my mom had her own house(we live in an apartment now)they would come over for dinner and do their lanudry now they never come over and we are not welcomed there unless they have something new to show us.I try to tell them how I feel but it always ends in a fight because they don't want to hear it.My mom feels hurt because she thinks she is no good to them now that she can't always do stuff for them.What should I do?

You guys have hit the nail on the head, queen bee snydrome is right. I feel bad calling them monkeys, monkeys don't deserve to be put down that way lol:) They weren't always this way we(me and my oldest) very close but now that the situation has change they showed their true colors so I guess they HAVE always been this way.

Answer 1

Start using the caller ID to screen their calls.
Make yourselves unavailable to them.
They have that "queen-bee" syndrome and don't care about anyone but themselves.

Answer 2

Oh, God!! what a pair of monkeys you have for sisters!!! I am so sorry!!......Probably you need to give them a taste of their own soup, by acting just like they do........brag about your sweater (even if it's 2yrs old) and tell them you bought it a Nordstrom...and your shoes, oh well they were just on sale for $200.00!! what a sale!! etc.etc. They are just going to go nuts and will start hating you, but when they say something just tell them that you are imitated them!! that's what they act! and you are doing it so they realized how ridiculous and jackasses they are! you need to be very strong (you can tell your mother about your plans...) tell her not to worry, you are OK, but somebody needs to teach them a lesson.....try to get good times with your mom and when the sisters need you guys, tell them you can't, because you have an important dinner with the President of X company...teach them a lesson, give them a taste of their own soup. Hopefully they will get it.
If things don't get fixed, you and your mother win anyway, because WHO wants peolple like your sisters around???? only to create stones in your kidneys or have a heart attack?????, you and your mom don't need this. Ask your mom for support, I believe she did not raised them that way, now that they have an extra dollar, they think they have blue blood...if they do, tell them you are Princess Diana.
Or they start acting like people or they will be treated the way they are asking to.
In this life kiddo, you need to be tough with people who ask for it....is called survival.....but be good people with good people......Good Luck, my kid!!

Answer 3

Ignore them. Concentrate on your Mum and your kid sister. Tell your Mum it's their loss, and when you move out you wouldn't dream of being that shallow. Make sure your little sister grows up with the same standards.

Answer 4

Don't do anything..just be yourself. I don't know how old you are, but it sounds like your best bet may well be trying to get yourself to college...Be nice and helpful to your Mom..make her proud of you. Ignore your sisters..obviously they don't know any better. Life is not always easy..get a plan for your own life!! Merry Christmas!
