Spread the love

No one likes an entitled person. Anyone exhibiting such behavior can immediately spark tension, whether in a coffee shop queue or, in this case, at home among siblings.

People on Reddit have been opening up about their brothers and sisters who’ve been acting like spoiled brats. They’ve shared photos of damaged personal belongings and screenshots of annoying text messages showing a complete lack of respect.

We’ve collected some posts that stood out for all the wrong reasons. As these images show, your sibling disagreements probably weren’t as bad.

#2 My Brother Decided To Take His Anger Out On Something Of Mine

I can likely fix whatever didn’t get absolutely obliterated, but I will have to order replacement parts for 3 of the 7 landing pieces, as the technic axles and connectors are toast.

Experts have defined this type of behavior towards family members in general as genetic relational entitlement. You feel you can get away with anything because of blood relations. In this case, it is much stronger among siblings because of their profound effect on each other.

“The sibling relationship has the ability to uniquely shape a child’s behavior, adjustment, and well-being, for better and worse,” Utah University professor Shawn D. Whiteman told the American Psychology Association.

Siblings are strong influential figures during childhood because they can offer a similar perspective that parents cannot.

“No one else will know what it was like growing up with your parents in your household, and that sense of being understood by another person can be incredibly powerful,” said Northeastern University professor Laurie Kramer.

#9 Found Out Today That My Older Brother Sold Literally Every Single Valuable Pokémon Card I Owned As Soon As I Left For College

I had over 10 pages of rare and holographic cards, which I spent many years collecting as a kid.

These images depict a chaotic relationship between siblings, with a lack of respect evident. According to University of Missouri professor Megan Gilligan, a parent playing favorites could lead to such a strained relationship.

“The presence of favoritism, even if you’re the favored one, can cause competition and conflict. Perceptions of favoritism also exacerbate conflict during times of stress, such as when caring for parents later in life,” she said.

But even with the presence of favoritism, it is advised to take things as they are. According to author and wellness coach Elizabeth Scott, PhD, igniting a “rivalry” with a sibling does not help the situation.

“Just accept that your relationship with your parents is yours and try to keep it separate from sibling relationships,” she wrote in an article for Very Well Mind.

Polar opposite personalities can also cause siblings to drift apart. But according to licensed marriage and family therapist Whitney Goodman, opening up to each other can bridge that gap.

“Finding a shared hobby or interest, spending time getting to know each other, asking for help in an area where a sibling has experience or expertise,” she told Brit + Co. “If you have completely different personalities, it helps to approach them with curiosity and interest in what makes them unique.”

#17 I Let My Sister Borrow My AirPods. This Is How She Gave Them Back To Me

Apparently, it’s from her hair dye. I’ve tried everything and the stain won’t come out. The fact that it happens to be the color of earwax annoys me the most.

#18 Sister Expects Me To Buy Her A Bottle Of Water And Deliver It To Her Class Instead Of Walking Up To A Water Fountain

But if you can’t find a way to get along despite all efforts, Goodman advises drawing the line and avoiding touchy matters.

“It may help to set boundaries around certain topics or issues to avoid miscommunication. Adult siblings should also discuss how they would like their relationship to function and what expectations they have for the relationship.”

#34 My Brother Left My Original Super Nintendo Outside In A Box For Years

I left my original, working Super Nintendo and a collection of games at my parents' house when I moved in with my husband. I assumed it was safe in the attic for the past 5 years. When I came home for Christmas this year, my brother tells me it’s ruined.

How, you ask? He had used it at some point apparently, then brought it back to my parents' and left it in the side yard in a plastic storage box. He said he’d check on it periodically, but never told me it was there. If he had, I would have flown home just to move it to the attic myself. When he checked on it this year, the box had broken down and everything was ruined by water.

#39 Today, My Brother Unboxed My Sealed, Legendary Edition Copy Of Halo 3 From 2007

He didn't know it being sealed was what made it valuable. Because it had been stored in so long, he just thought I'd forgotten it existed! And he was only a baby when I bought it, so he doesn't know I bought it as a collectible.
I forgave him once I calmed down. It sucks, I'm upset, but I know it was just a mistake.

#58 Texts From My Sister When I Already Had Plans And Couldn’t Watch Her Kid

For context, we both live at my grandma's house, I work nights (7 PM – 3:30 AM) and she works days. I made plans for the weekend a week in advance, and she texted me at almost 2 AM to tell me she worked at 10 AM and needed me to watch my niece. I told her I wasn’t going to be home because I had plans that weekend and this was her response. I chose not to engage because in the past, engaging when she’s like this just leads to paragraph after paragraph telling me how horrible I am.

#59 I Have Been In College For Two Weeks. Visited Home For The Weekend, And My Brother Has Already Managed To Destroy My Room

As a middle child, my mom made my brother and I share the largest room. He is extraordinarily messy and doesn't respect my space or things, so I just started sleeping in my mom's room. Since we shared a room, my stuff is still in there. Currently, I'm in my sister's room, which is much smaller than my brother's, so it's unrealistic to fit everything in there. My brother has plenty of space, so my stuff taking up space is fine there, but he decided he didn't want some of my stuff in "his" room anymore, so after he stole my mattress and bed frame, he tossed a bunch of my things from the room.

#74 Texts From My Oldest Sister

My oldest sister is 27 and I'm a 17-year-old senior in high school, who happens to have a room that's close to hers in the house. I play games with my friends at night and enjoy talking with them, while my sister already graduated college and works as a nurse. She sends these texts whenever she gets back home at night.

#75 I Bought This Pack For Myself And I’ve Only Had 3 Of Them. There Were 9 In There This Morning

I think my younger brother stole half the pack for himself and his girlfriend. Funny, as when I originally had the pack in the fridge I noticed someone took one, so I moved the box into my room, and then moved it back into the fridge almost full. Someone owes me a new pack and I guess I'm going to have to start keeping track of how many are left.

#79 My Sister And Her Underage Friends Want My Boyfriend To Drive Almost An Hour Out To Rent A Hotel Room In His Name For Them, Because They’re Not Old Enough To Do So Themselves

We had a 15 minute phone call of her begging and telling me that I’m ruining her friend’s birthday by saying no. I explained to her that she can find rooms, they just won’t be as nice. Also explained the legality of things and how I’m not getting in trouble for her and her friends. She hangs up and says she’ll look. She texts me 30 minutes later saying there’s nothing and she needs my boyfriend to do it. I know she’s lying and didn’t even look, so I look for her and find her a hotel less than 10 minutes from where she’s at. She hits me with a "we wanted a pool" and hasn’t responded since.

#89 Sister Got Mad And Threw My Laptop

I saved up for so long to buy this and I didn't even get to have it for a few months. She threw it across the car because apparently that side of the back seat is her side and she's petty. I know it's not the end of the world, but literally no one cares that she did it. She doesn't have to pay to replace it, and she's not facing any repercussions whatsoever from my parents.

#91 My Sister Initially Asked For Money To Get Food Because Her Car Is At The Shop, So I Offered Food. Then Figured Out She Still Had EBT Money Left

My sister is a recovering addict, so I never ever give her cash. When I dug in a little bit to what she was looking to get money for, she said she wanted it to rent a car from Turo, which I'm absolutely not putting my credit card down on, so I offered to have her groceries delivered. In trying to make a case that she needs money instead of groceries, she tells me that she has EBT money left, so I offer to pay the fees and tip charged for delivery so she can use her EBT. No dice.

#101 My Girlfriend Slept Over And Slept In While I Went To Work. My Brother Wanted Her To Leave

Basically, my girlfriend slept over and I had work early in the morning. I left for work and let my girlfriend sleep in a bit more before she left. Apparently, my brother has this unspoken rule that we shouldn’t leave people in our house alone (he had something going on while he was in college where he was gone and someone violated his room or something). We’d never discussed it and this was the first time I’d left my girlfriend of 2 years at the house while I left for work. He ended up asking her to leave after these texts and she felt rejected by him. I talked to him when I got home and he apologized for being mean over text but still feels like he doesn’t trust her enough to let her stay at the house alone. I know his fear is irrational but he asked me to accept his rule, and if I don't, he’ll consider me disrespecting him. I don't know how to get him to trust her.

I blocked her on every single social media platform. This is the text I woke up to from an unsaved number. She’s been making empty threats since I met her, and she tried to weasel her way back into my life by saying she got baptized and was in a healthy relationship now. There are a lot of things she did in the past that are difficult to even try to forgive.

#104 My Brother Went Over My Paintwork In The Bathroom While I Was Away

I have been renovating the bathroom at our family home and went away on holiday for a week. I came back today and my little brother went over my work because he found the pyramids to be aggressive.
The first image is a Photoshop preview, the second image is my brother’s job on removing the pyramids, and the third is a closeup of the pyramids before my brother went over it.
