I didn't either. I knew they were hardly used, but...





Tomorrow we're going to the creek again ((ugh!)) and then to a relative's house for fireworks.



Probably because they're cooped up with each other in the house. They don't get along very well, to say the least.
My middle brother is probably the worst in terms of insults, he always slaps and pinches my baby brother and I. He loves to call me the 'b' word, he never calls me by my actual name.
My baby brother is probably the worst in terms of sheer annoyance, all he does is scream and whine.

At least I can still get a conversation out of my little brother sometimes. My middle brother doesn't seem to like me at all.
It's a shame since my baby brother and I used to be so close with each other. He used to be really girly and I treated him like the sister I never had and desperately wanted. I nicknamed him 'Christine' and we'd play dolls with each other and watch a lot of really 'girly' movies together. I even dressed him in my old dresses.
Obviously we don't do that anymore, but he's still kinda feminine; he likes girl and boy things equally for one. My middle brother takes much delight in calling him gay, which makes my baby brother upset.

My brother and i get along far more than my sister and i...nearly anything i say will set her off and she;ll start being bossy then get upset when I call her bossy and *I* have to apologize. WHo cares about me? I hurt my sister; doesn't matter she hurt me first obviously.
That sounds like fun. I'd do that sort of stuff with you if you wanted :p i'm serious

Not like punishing him would even do anything, he's that same kid I mentioned in UU who says 'if you spank me that's child abuse, mom!!!' All Mom can really do is tell him to stop being bad, like 'don't call your older sister the 'b' word' and he just says something like: "I can do whatever I want!!"
Just thinking about them makes me angry.


Spanking isn't child abuse. I don't think you can have your child taken away for..spanking. Whipping or belting yeah, but a quick swat on the rear? I don't know about that.
THings like this are why i don't want kids.


Oh it's not just your brothers. WHen I hear about other people's siblings and the kids my mom has to work with....some of them are just regular troublesome toddlers but others are real BRATS. Like they scream and throw stuff and call my mom disgusting names.

I've seen a lot of terrible children, but it still doesn't deter me. Kids are awful, teens are awful, adults are awful. People will be awful no matter what their age is.

Fair point. bUt i don't know how i'd react to something like that...

I love holding babies too. I remember at that funeral Aunt Hilary brought her newborn-at-the-time, Brendan, and she needed someone to hold him since none of my other cousins wanted to do it, and I asked her several times to let me hold Brendan, and she finally agreed, and I held him so well that even my grandmother commented on how good I was with children. Brendan didn't even cry or fuss when I held him; but when his actual siblings held him, he fussed lol

COol! i've never really been around babies. I only see them in public or family gatherings which only happen a few times a year :\


WHo is your "niece" and why do you call her that?

That's actually my very first memory.
Oh her name is Isabelle, and she's technically my third cousin I think? Because her mom, Anna, is my mom's cousin and my second cousin.
I was really involved in Anna's life when I was younger-I was the flower girl at her wedding, went to both her bridal and baby showers, and I also visited her house a bunch due to Mom's relation with her.
Well at the time Isabelle was born, everyone kept talking about how they had nieces and nephews, and I eagerly asked Mom if I had any, and she said no since you only get nieces and nephews when your siblings marry and have kids. I instantly started to cry and said it wasn't fair that everyone else I knew got to have nieces/nephews and I didn't, so I decided that I would call Isabelle my niece no matter what.
It sadly didn't catch on, but it stuck to me so even to this day I call Isabelle my niece.
