Sibling Rivalry
In the story you are about to read, the two brothers don't always get along with one another. Many siblings experience sibling rivalry. Do you have siblings and if so, thoughtfully reflect about the things that you believe may create sibling rivalry. If are an only child, explain an experience you have had that may have allowed you to gain insight about sibling rivalry.

shakye why did you do that ? What do you mean ? You know what I mean you took my gum.No i didn't yes you did. See in my house were always fighting over the silly thing . It seem like we can never can argree only disargree. I think that we need to grow up, but that the fun thing about have a little sister.We can and can fight but that makes us stronger. But one thing i always say were one kids.
I have a little sister named Sabrina and we are lways between sibling rivalry! She is always tryin to take my belongings and copy off of EVERYTHING i do! It gets really bad sometimes but either way she will always be my siser! But sometimes she can be really nice and there are some days when she doesnt bother me at all.....which is how it should be! Even though she may be annoying sometimes i still love her :) he he he
I think sometimes the closer you are to your sibling the more you disagree about things. ---just a little heads up =)
I am the oldest of four children. My sister who is closest in age to me is only two years younger than me. Then there is a big gap and my other sister is 12 years younger and my brother is 15 years younger. It is like having two families in one. My sister who is closest in age to me was always told why aren't you more like your sister. I took it as a compliment but she took it as an insult. I never new this until she told me later after we were older. My other sister who is 12 years younger and brother I was between a mother and a sister to them. My father died when my brother was only a little over a year old so I also took on a differt role. It is amazing how the family can change. I am very close to all my siblings now.
well i have 3sisters and 2brothers and iam in the middle there so annoying ever time they hit me i yall at them and they dont even get in trouble thats just not right my youngest sister is 5 and her name is tameisha the 2nd youngest is 6and her name is aniya and the oldest is 17 my youngest brother is 9 and my oldest is youngest is 11 i only live with only one of my siblings and thats the 5year old tameisha thats all we need the others live with my dad.
I have a twin sister that could be a pain. Sometimes when I'm eating with her and my parents, mom and dad asks us who is going to wash the dishes. Me and my sister always yells our dads name but he would be disappionted at our disability of responsipility.
So me and my sister have a competition to see who finishes first. The last one to finish has to wash the dishes. I usually win. So sis is stuck with dish duty and I sit on the couch watching T.V. But soon after, my sister gets angry at me and the "tradition" still goes on and I usually win.
But we are siblings and we have to keep each other entertained anyway we can. So the "tradition" turned into a competion and started our rivalry.
I have a little brother named Colin.. when we were younger we got along so well but now we fight 24/7 i try hard to be close with him but he just bothers me so much! Though he does annoy me he is my brother i love him =]!
I have two stepbrothers one older(Hunter), and one younger(Mason) and they are a pain. Coming in my room with no permission. Taking my stuff, and always bugging me. But they're there for me so I care for them a lot like real brothers.
I am the youngest of 3 children and we did have sibling rivalry growing up. I thought that my older brother and sister were always scheming to annoy me and make me cry. They thought that I was a spoiled brat and that I got everything I wanted. Sometimes I thought there were right. All I needed to do was cry really loud and my parents would come to my rescue.
Anyway, my older sister specially saw me as a threat. She would never share her toys to me. Then, when we were teen-agers, she wouldn't share her stylish clothes and shoes with me. I thought I would get even by becoming very smart. I studied really hard in school and graduated on top of my class. I became very popular in our school.
Today though, I love my brother and sister to death.
i have three brothers and one sister. I am the youngest out of the five. they pick on me all the time and that starts most of the fights. sometimes I take their stuff without asking them and it gets them mad.When it gets too out of hand we run to our mom. she settle's it and we stop fighting. My dad tries to stay out as much as he can. overall I love my symblings and they love me.
I have two older sisters, 15(Alli)and 33(Ashlee), but one doesn't live with me so she isn't a pain. But my other sister Allison is always annoying me. She will come into my room without asking me and takes my things like my
mp3 player and she will wear my clothes. She never asks about anything and just assumes that i will let her wear my clothes. When i tell her to take my clothes off, she will tell her mommy and she will get her way. All the time.
I TOTALLY understand where you guys are coming from!!!! I have a little sister named alyssa and she is 10. We argue about the dumbest things but we know how to get under eachother's skin. Sometimes it's about what we are wearing or what's on TV or who's able to go where. Some of my friends find it kind of funny when we fight because she has the lamest comebacks like "I know you are" and she says it after everything so it doesn't even make since. We are not very good at keeping our opinion to ourselves around eachother so I could just be talking on the phone and it wouldn't take long for it to turn into a fight!!
I have two sisters. One 11 named Caitlyn and one 5 named Lauren. They are a handful sometimes. Sometimes at 6 A.M. I here screaming and running in the basement. They make so much noise playing. I go down stairs and yell at them most of the time then go back to bed. 30 minutes later i here them even louder. I go back downstaires and yell at them again. Another half-hour later, I here them even louder! I go insane!! So that time.. I just stay in my room and play video games. Once they found out i gave up.. they go upstairs and annoy me. I try to ignore them most of the time and yes my door is shut. Sometimes they make so much noise my dad gets angry and Yells at them. When my dad yells they usualy start to cry. I think it's kind of funny when he yells, But thats just me. When we play a board game they get extreamly mad if i win. Lauren starts to cry and yells "Forget about it!" every 30 seconds. Caitlyn just go's to her room and starts to draw. then I go outside till Luaren calms down. How anoyying they can get they will always be MY little sisters.
I have two little anyoing brothers they take my stuff and we fight somtimes but I still care for them
When it comes to sibling rivalry no one knows more than me. I have two little siblings, a boy and a girl, and they are both annoying. We have had some terrible fights, but we always get over it(although it can sometimes take a while)and keep our family from falling apart. Seriously, if I wasn't around my parents wouldn't be able to keep order.
I have annoying brother and a sister.When I'm eating at the table,Ryan is always constently singing and it's annoying.He sings horrible and my parents never say a thing about his singing.On the other hand my sister always copies Ryan so they both start singing.If he's not singing, he's always talking about me . Well I can't wait until I move out of the house
I have a twin brother Zilong and he is a BIG trouble around me. Such as every morning when we get up for school he would usualy insult me for no reason and he would keep doing that until I feel like I'm gong to blow my brain out. Sometime we fight and get into "Compititions" that he usualy win and I beat him up after my "losing prize". Even though we help each other and laugh with each other but soon it turns into a sibling rivalry.
I am a mother of two children ages 12 (boy)and 16 (girl). I am attending my son's school today participating in "turn around day". Turn Around Day is where the parent comes to school in place of the child and attends all the child's classes. I can tell you that my kids fight all the time. A lot of it has to do with their age and gender. Due to their age difference they have less in common now than they used to. My daughter is a teenager who likes to hang out with her friends at the mall and she doesn't want her little brother tagging along anymore. My son is a pre-teen who still wants to spend a lot of time with his sister. BIG conflict. My son goes in my daughter's room and takes her things without asking and my daughter gets so annoyed. My daughter likes to tease my son a lot and he gets frustrated. They can not agree on anything. I have noticed though that when I am chastizing them, if one of them has a problem with someone else, or if one of them is sick or hurt, then the other is right by their side to take up for or take care of the other. This shows me that despite all the fighting they truly care about each other.
I am the middle child out of us six but my sister, Briana, and I are two years apart but extremely close. We always have alot of fun, but when we fight it's pretty bad. Even though we have rough times, we always make up and are friends again.
Okay, I have a older sister named Lauren, and almost everyday we get into a sibling rivalry! She tells me her problems, and I have to pretend to care, and If I have to tell her about my problems, (which i never do), she simply gives me an evil look and says, "can't you ask one of your stupid little 7th grader friends?" Haha. Its usually stupid stuff that we fight about, but its okay, most of the time. But If we do really get into a fight, she always is the one to win, because she is so much better than me at fighting back! Yeah, but even though we do get into a lot of fights, she is my sister, and guess what? I do say I hate her all the time, but deep deep down in the corner of my heart, I love her, and she loves me too. (:
I have a younger sister and she is seven years old. I think everyone who has younger siblings should know that siblings can be annoying and a bit of a handfull! Like all siblings my sister is an instigater! in case you are not familiar with that term, it means that every time my parents turns there back, my sister does something to get me really annoyed. She knows i get mad really easily and she uses it against me. Siblings have their ups and there downs! I guess i'll just have to deal with it for the meantime until i can move out of the house!!!!
I most definitley have a sibling rivalry because my brother will never stop competing with me. It goes from football all the way to who gets in trouble the most. Carter is not the brother i wanted everything I do he follows. When it comes to football though he is going down
I have 3 older brothers and all mean.I have fights with them constently loose. but it helps me get stronger. at the same time it makes us closer.
I have a so called sister she gets me mad at point where I want to Explode but she will never see it comming when I get her back besides I hate tyra she my seem like my sister but she is abrat
I have 5 sisters and 1 on the way.I love all my sisters but they are a pain in the neck.I used to fight with them.
I am the 2nd oldest out of 5 children. But there is only one huge problem, I have a 15 year old 5 foot 10 older brother that stands in the way, literaly! We get along like 2 gold fish in a pond, even when we are in an argument. Our parents think we always fight and argue, but the truth is, we are just joking around. Its just our brotherly ways of showing each other that we care about each other.
Taylor and me are usually rivaries and hardly ever get along(except when she lets me use her cell phone). The worst part is that we share a room. She would always beat me up in the scool halways just because she was in 8th grade!! Thankfully i pulled out my awesome fighting skills on her and her friends. Another thing taylor alwys does is make me clean her side of the room and she kicks me out of the bathroom every morning!! I have had enough of her bullying and its time for our sister rivalries to finally come to an end!!!!!!!!!!!<3sister-lexi
I have an older sister. her neme is Kristina and she is 19 years old and she DRIVES ME CRAZY!!!! She is always bossing me around like i am her slave!! If i do something wrong she will immediately tell my parents!!! Even though i have so much stuff on her, she will do it anyway!! She will make me turn off her bedroom light even when i am downstairs and she is in her room!!! If i ask her to do one thing for me she will wait till the last possible second to do it!! If i ask her to drop me off at a friends house in her she will say "NO!!" before i even finish what i am saying!! The sad part is though i weigh a pound more than her and she still thinks shes fat!! Even when i tell her that she is super SKINNI she yells at me saying that my opinion does not matter!!! Although she does all of these mean and jerk'ish things to me, i still love her. Not just because she is my sister but because when we are not fighting we have so much fun together
I have 5 brothers and sisters, but me and my older brother, Troy (14) are always fighting!!!!!! He is the exact oppisite of me!!! He is sooooooooo picky and I could care less!!!!!!!!!! Also Troy, Travis, and myself all have school at the same time and have to share 1 bathroom in the morning, Travis hogs it and gets mad at me when i take 10 minutes! Theese are just a few things that cause sibling rivalry and i go through everyday
I have 2 sibblings! I have a bother, Logan who is 10. And i have a sister Peyton 14! We are always fighting about the sillest things in the world!! For example who took the last ice cream lol. But in the end i would not trade them for the world.I know I said that i would but truly i wolud nerver ever ever ever ever ever trade them in! :)
My sister will come home and tell me about her day and i just pretend to listen while thinking why did my mom have the mind to have a daughter be fore me! LOL but no matter how much we fight i love her ( well i think i do lol jking) and she means the world to me!
Logan wow i have to say we are really competive when it comes to sports! But i love him alot and i would not be the same with out hime!!!! :)
