Sister fights!!!

Bessie I got into a physical fight with my oldest sister years ago.
She had me on the floor and pounding my head into.
I got away and called 911.
The police came and said they could arrest both of us. I said go ahead.
She was over 18 and I was 17.
We didn't go to jail.

Since that day she has not laid a finger on me.
I also took 2 self defense courses.

Something for you to think about.
 
I think her pregnancy might be part of it and it dosn't help her that she is always fighting with the baby's dad. My mom is thinking about kicking her out ,but the only reason she moved in was she was in an abusive relationship with the baby's dad. We found out she was pregnant after she moved back. The reason I took pics was if she ever hits me like that again I'm calling the cops ,but I don't want ruin whatever realtionship we still have.

Do NOT convince yourself that this behavior is from her being pregnant. It's just an excuse. Seriously... Sounds like abuse is all she is seeming to know. And if she came from an abusive relationship with the baby's daddy, she should know all too well how much it hurts. If you end up calling the police the next time it happens-and it seems like you know that it will- it may just be what she needs to make her realize that she can't hit you like that. She's only doing it because you're smaller and can't defend yourself as well as she can. Calling the police may cause a damper on the relationship but what relationship do you really have with her?? You've said not a very good one at all. It can only make the relationship better once she realizes how to deal with things better and not hit you.

Again, Good luck to you. I know it's hard. Hopefully you have your parents on your side on this.
 
Thanks I feel terrible for hitting her ,but I don't think it even fazed her at all. All she has been saying today was she wants her phone back ,but my mom dosn't want to give it back until she apologizes to me and her. When she lived with her boyfriend the abuse went both ways. He held her until she had bruises and she would hit, kick, and punch him. Plus the mental abuse and spitting on each other. I think she just dosn't know how to settle things the right way.
 
My parents made my younger sister and I have a babysitter until I was 18 years old. They were afraid I would kill her. My husband only knew her as "My sister the B...." for the first year we went out.

I got in trouble with my mom a month ago when I unfriended my sister from my friends list on Facebook!

But you know what, when her husband died, I was there for his funeral. When I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer, she was leading a team in Relay for Life.

You can't choose them, sometimes you want to kill them, but you never want to loose them
 
Abuse brings out the anger issues. She's damaged mentally. She needs help. BTDT. I also still fight with my sister, and likely always will. Not physical, but I just can't stand her most of the time. LOOOOONGG going fued between us, like, since her birth, and she's 29. Some sisters are just like that. Read the book Boundaries, then set some up with her. The relationship may or may not last either way. Just because you have the same parents never ensures you will ever get along.
 
Somehow it seems wrong to me that a minor is posting about a fight with an also minor sibling without parental intervention/supervision.

I'd like to think that this thread being allowed to go away would be best, and that teenage angst is best handled by the parents of the sibling minors.
