I'm not really good with this family-advice thing, but I saw in TV once a girl belted out all her anger to her parents without missing a single detail, then they had a fight about it, and after that they sorted the whole things out now that their frustration had been out. Then they made a pact. You COULD try it, but make sure you're nowhere near antiques and breakable stuff, ok? ^^;;
If you don't want to vent your feelings and try to set things right, then how could you expect others to do the same?

again, i have tried to settle things calmly with my parents, i tell them everything that frustrates me and what is getting me so mad... but they begin to twist everything i say, which makes it even harder... i've attempted this like how many times? at twenty and you know what? they still don't get it.. so i'm jus going to leave them and when i get really mad i'll vent my steam on writing and maybe bitching at people on inklink.

you know what? if your parents don't understand you, then prove to them. I get caught up in this type of stuff so many times that i found it too easy to overcome it. usually, my dad would just steam himself up and talk about complete bullshit, and then what do i do? i sit there and listen to him as if it was a dog barking. try not to let their nonsense get in your way. then, after when everything calms down, try convincing.
but, it doesn't always work...sometimes i wish that i could just seal their friggen mouths so i can just talk and they can listen!

I never experienced that before so yeah... I'm completely clueless about family probs *bows*. But being babbled out by parents is something common to me.
I have a younger sibling too, a brother, who's 8 years younger than me *popeyed*. The problems are kinda same with you and yeah, I got all those sharp rambles straight from my mom's mouth. And yeah, it hurts. They don't understand what I'm saying and keep saying "You're older! You should know better than him!". Well, excuse me, I'm innocent.
Wow, I'm such a pig, am I? Ranting this stuff and hell... *grins*.
Anyways, how was the knife? Is it sharp or not? If it is, then your sister could be serious. But if not, she might be trying to defend herself playfully. And that look on her face? She could be playing around too but maybe because you overreacted, she started to become serious.

Fuuko-san! First you tell us you're a geek, and now a pig? *falls over* Are you being literal or abstractive?? And don't worry, I'm sure older siblings go through the same thing. It's pretty funny: they tell you you're too young to go home late, but you gotta be mature to your younger sis's and bros. Sorry if I couldn't help, fungi-san. My okaasan once having a "calm" argument with me (just because I got a stupid 99 in a test), and--I told you my feelings are whacked--I suddenly laughed out loud. See what I mean about being messed up? My mother got sooo red and got the belt and...you know what happened. ^^ So be happy you're perfectly normal ^^;;

hehe that's why it's awesome to be the youngest in the family... your parents are already use to all the bad things the previous siblings have done so they don't take things as harshly. That's why I'm not much help with this family business either... specially since my Sister has moved out and I hardly see my brother(who's 24 and still lives in the basement... what a bum heheh )

not to defend the rights of being a youngest sibling (which is me), i agree with fuuko-san that you sister is kidding. there is no way a sibling can hate you to pull a knife at you, unless you guys are fighting to take some sort of royal position or something...(j/k) but, the same with me, i couldn't help much cuz i'm not the oldest and usually things around my house goes the opposite where my sister is the known superior one and i'm just a little shadow of hers...(which is painful, but i have to admit it.) and as for your parents...i really don't know what other advice i can give you. all i do now is wait until i'm older, then prove to them that i am not a useless piece of crap (as they have stated) sitting around doing nothing. then i'll show them that i can do something worthwhile, and make them eat back everysingle word they have said about me!! whoops...getting a little carried away...

parents always have their way in making us think they are superior and always right...which is completely the opposite!

They just want someone to lord over with, since they are like slaves at work. What a joke.

Sure, try telling THEM that. You won't come out alive! But I wish you good luck anyway. And be prepared with your will, too, ok? ;D
(Those who love their parents who are reading this thread, pardon us...) ^^;;;;
