You have no right to yell at me.
 
Alright, so the other day, I came into the kitchen to find my younger sister cleaning the dishes. She's 13 years old, and my mother has finally decided, she's old enough now to wash dishes... I was washing dishes a lot earlier than her. :roll: Parents and babying their youngest. Sheesh.

Anyways, I walk into the kitchen and my sister turns around, her face bright red and it's obvious she's very angry. I ask her what was wrong and she goes into this yelling/screaming rant about how I never clean out the milk in my cereal bowls when I'm done eating breakfast and how the milk spoils and makes it harder for her to clean the bowls. On and on she goes, and finally, I can't take it and yell back at her. I know, that seems harsh I'm yelling at a younger sibling. But this is what I said: "ANNA! I don't eat cereal because I can't DRINK MILK!" and I stormed off.

Yes, that's right. My sister was yelling at me, blaming me for leaving HER mess. I was really pissed.

So, what about you guys! :D Ever get yelled at or blamed for something you OBVIOUSLY DID NOT DO!?

My dad lost his winter coat a few weeks ago. Rather than acknowledge the fact that he lost it, he chooses to occasionally go on tirades about how either me or my brother either took his coat without paying attention or stole it, then lost it.

Another morning, when I was sick, my mom had taken a shower in my bathroom the day before because she was in a rush to get to work. She stole my dad's razor so she could shave her legs, and left it in my bathroom. My dad came in at 8:30 AM, I had fallen asleep at 2 the night before, and I was sick. He woke me up and started yelling at me to quit stealing his stuff. Since I was tired, I didn't have any mental wordfilters in place, so I screamed, "I didn't take your fucking razor, dad! Shit!"

Then my mom came running over to tell him it was her fault. I went back to sleep. When he came home, he was really apologetic about it, though. :P

Story of my life, love. I'm third oldest of four- one boy, and I'm the middle of three girls. I was the family scapegoat. My siblings seemed to be in agreement that they could blame anything on me and it was all good. I recall being beaten for things that happened when I wasn't even home. I was even punished for things my father knew I didn't do.

Case in point- my sister once stole my father's dog tags and took them to school, where she lost them. My sister told him she took them. Her teacher called my father to see if he'd given my sister permission to take them. In short, he was perfectly aware of who took his dog tags. So what does he do? Takes off his belt and beats me literally bloody. Why? Because, and I quote, "you should have been watching her".

Yes, yes, your seven-year-old stole something from you and lost it, so instead of punishing her to show her she shouldn't steal, let's beat the living daylights out of her eight-year-old sister! That'll show the little thief! >.<

I currently work as a nanny, and the mother I work for is utterly convinced that her children never do anything wrong while she's there. She sleeps on the couch all day, yet whenever anything gets broken or goes missing, of course it happened while I was in charge of the house. She's actually docked my pay for things I'm fairly certain were broken on my days off.

As the oldest of two, I use to get blamed for stuff my brother did all the freaking time. Then somewhere along the way it dawned on my parentals that, HEY! Their oldest doesn't lie about ANYTHING and I stopped getting the blame. XD Before that, though? Oh god yes. And even if they didn't believe my brother, he still tried to pass blame off to me. x_o For a while we share a desk for our computers, and he'd set his dirty dishes on my mouse pad then try and claim they were mine. This was always, always always accompanied by me snapping about why for the love of all that is holy would I put things where they interfered with the use of my mouse and that he needs to pick his dishes up.
...
He always ignored the dishes and they'd keep stacking up until I finally gave in and picked them up myself. e_e I'd tell parentals, and they'd just say "Well he needs to pick up his dishes and I have to stop giving in." And they always conveniently forget that not even a mule is as stubborn as my brother. If he doesn't want to do something, he finds ways to get around doing 'em, everything from a headache- which he always use to magically develops when he had to do something he didn't want to- to "not hearing what they said."
Just the other day my mom told us to feed and water the cats, and my brother kept saying that he did yesterday (even though their food was almost empty and their water horribly filthy.) He managed to put it off all day, and I ended up both feeding and watering the kitties. e_e; Not exactly passing the blame, since he didn't say anything about it, but still... I'm really freaking tired of doing all his work for him. But if someone doesn't do it, it never gets done.

Clair;
Younger siblings blaming their elder for their mess? I feel for you, sister! D; Still, it's ridiculous that she'd try to blame something like that on you. :P Of course, that appears to be what younger siblings are made from; ridiculousness. x_x

Pkero;
Apfft, now that's just silly of him. xD I'm glad your dad apologized, though.

Purple Pimp;
Oh good gosh, that's awful! o_o *hugs* That's just... yeah. Things certainly don't seem to like playing nice with you! D:

Clair Voyant 01-03-2010 07:01 PM

@ Purple::
HOLY F! That's down right childhood abuse! x_x Do you still deal with that!?
Did you report that? >.>

@ Pkero::
Ugh, I don't sleep very well, have a lot of trouble sleeping, so if that happened to me, I'd be screaming up a storm.

@ Lathrine::
I live with only one of my younger sisters, the one I wrote about. We have another younger half sister who is only a year old. I hope she doesn't take after my other younger sister. I'd really hate to have TWO bratty little sisters.

MizumiO 01-03-2010 08:22 PM

My sister can be fighting with my brother and when our parents come out guess who gets it trouble? Me, the person sitting in the other room watching tv. My sister walks away from being yelled at by my dad so he turns on me instead. And my mom constantly blaims me for things she watches my brothers girlfriend do.

Vanidar 01-03-2010 08:23 PM

Oh... I have a sister who is 8 years younger than me. When she was 6 she'd always say things that she knew would get under my skin. The worst thing she'd do though was exactly what her dad would tell her to do. (He and my mom broke up when she was 3 and he's had a vendetta against me since because he believes it's my fault. And it was. But still...)

Story time! Gather round the magic story carpet!

My ma is very poor. We have very little money for just spending rather than for necessities. One year, my mom splurged. She saved up for a long time and bought a REALLY nice recliner. It was suede and a really pretty beige color. Not two weeks after we put it in the living room my sister, 5 at the time, colored on the arm of it with marker. My mom was FURIOUS! Absolutely fuming. She of course turned to me, her little scapegoat, and starts yelling at ME. My sister is standing beside her going "Sissy you shouldn't have done that. It wasn't a vewy nice thing to dew" (I know do is spelled wrong, that's the way she said it.) Mom took this as confirmation that'd I'd done it and went out to the apple tree. She pulled of a switch and was about to come hit me with it when she came in and my sister had decided to finish her picture. My mom did NOTHING! She shook her head and walked away and put the switch down. The only thing she did was take away my sisters marker. Not markers. Just the one she'd colored on the chair with.

Now. Tell me. How is THAT in any way shape or form... FAIR?!

Twisted Insanity 01-03-2010 11:11 PM

Yes. My grandma is very forgetful, so she sometimes gets frustrated when I don't remind her of things. Most of the time she doesn't tell me, so I don't now and then she expects me to tell her. Other times I get blamed for something when I wasn't even home at the time, or had a clue what was going on.

Oh my god, it is just like my life, my sister is thirteen years old and just finally getting dish and chore duty (she still gets paid for some of them!), I am now in college but when I was home visiting for winter my sister would try getting me in trouble or force me to pick up her messes. I was like, "...I am 21 years old child I have been cleaning the dishes since I was 5, and this isn't my house anymore, do your chores!"
She called me a b****, she also told me to **** off, they learn those words fast don't they

vivian_cullen 01-04-2010 01:04 AM

God, I'm glad my younger sister lives 5 or 6 states away, we never fight now that we dont live together.

Itsumou 01-04-2010 03:03 AM

You should have slapped her in the face and told her to get back to cleaning. Then, if she didn't, just beat the shit out of her. That's how my brothers and I roll. Washing dishes is intense as hell.

Cat Eye 01-04-2010 06:35 AM

I'm the youngest of two.

I have an older brother. He's moved out.

Now, whether I do it, my mother does it, or a friend does it-I did it and get bitched at.

Even if I tell my mother which friend did it (and they're still there) she still bitches at me.

Apparently I have the ability of mind control and can control my friends perfectly, but choose not to.

Lathrine 01-04-2010 06:53 PM

Clair; That would be a living hell. o_o For your sake, I really hope she doesn't take after your younger sister.

Cat Eye; Well that's a spiffy talent. ;D Now if only you could figure out how to exercise that mind control of yours!
I'm sorry that you get blamed for all of that, though. ;c

Silenia 01-04-2010 08:16 PM

Oh yes. Happens here as well.

Then again, these days, every day, SOMEONE is screaming at someone else, then they start yelling back and a third starts to yell down we/they should shut up.

Mom dearest is ranting every day about having to do everything. I would not mind doing something, but it's a BIT hard to, for example, bring the dishes to the kitchen if I'm still eating, no? Not my fault she starts doing things BEFORE someone else has the time to do them, then starts ranting about how we should do more. Neither can I do very much when I am not at HOME.

Dad has a VERY messed up sleeping schedule, causing him to go to work in the early afternoon, coming home around 7.30PM, sleeping 1-2 hours first, then staying up 'til 5-7am. When he is sleeping, he gets very annoyed if he is woken up. When he's busy, he gets very annoyed if someone asks him something. Basically, whenever you need to ask him something, you'll first have to study him 5 minutes to decide if it's safe.

My younger sis is suffering from depression and an eating disorder. Her moods change every three seconds, she can start yelling at people for nothing, even just at mom asking her if she can move her chair a bit so MOM can continue vacuming(s?) the room. Or for calling her down to eat - but she gets angry too if we DON'T call her down. For accidentally giving her two vegetarian burgers instead of the one she asked for. For insisting she eats more than half a potatoe and half a spoon of vegetables. She spended almost 100 dollar last month by phonecalling her friends on their cell phones ALL the time and gets angry when mom and dad are NOT happy with that.
She breaks her own laptop's cord and starts blaming everyone, including mom who never even TOUCHED it. Ended up sharing the costs for a new one with her and my dad. Like I wanted to spill 15 dollars on that.

Dad can be a bit stupid in the things he says to her, causing another mess, and when mom or I say something about it, he gets angry.
At the same time I'm still suffering from my own depression. No surprise I can't seem to get rid of it in this household, really.

Amelia 01-04-2010 10:24 PM

Actually, I've never really had to deal with it. I was always the move believable sibling, so when something went wrong my mom always blamed my sister before me.
My sister never really tried blaming me for anything, cause she knew it wasn't going to go anywhere. I only blame stuff on her when it was her fault (which does happen to be most of the time), but if I did something I'll admit to it.

Clair Voyant 01-04-2010 11:05 PM

Clair gets the "Your sister is 5 years younger than you--" rant all the time. :roll:

Lucky you, Amelia.

MizumiO 01-04-2010 11:57 PM

10 out of 10 times I'll own up to something when I did it. Maybe after a little persuassion but I always admit to it. Hell Sometimes I'll stand up for a kid for something stupid, even if they did do it. and 5 out of 10 times I'll let a teacher know when they're being an idiot. But I don't see the point of arguing with my family, because it doesn't matter if you show them irrevocable proof that their wrong. They'll just turn a blind eye and pretend that they were right all along.

Mimiroppu 01-05-2010 01:07 AM

Oh yeah, I definitely got yelled at a lot over things I never did. >__>

Most recently, I haven't been home in... seven months. I had my room cleaned (save for a stack of drawings I had been going through right before I got on the plane) and I came back to find it looking like it was a warzone. My parents had taken my things, sold them/gave them away, lost them, used them... all without asking me. My mother talked to me online every single day and I had no idea they had been doing these things. I had my social security card behind a picture in a picture frame on my bookshelf. I came home to find that picture frame upturned and in a box. The picture had fallen out of it. My social security card was gone.

I have looked through the entire house and I am certain they sold/gave away my N64, my tablet pen, my extra laptop battery... and quite possibly my social security card. Dad said, "If I saw it, I probably put it into a wallet. Oh, but I gave all your wallets away to Good Will."

Then, when I was upset about this (I needed my social security card to scan it and send the scan to the bank to prove I'm not just leeching someone's social number) so that I can get the loans I need to pay for school... and my mother wasn't listening at all. She finally went, "What's going on?" while taking off her headphones. My dad turns to her and says, "She lost her social."

So it's my fault I told them not to touch anything in my room because I knew where my important things were so they tore my room apart. :| Then I got yelled at about my mom taking my entire candle collection, most of the gifts, and using them. It's my fault my parents lost my social, my birth certificate (which they found... the only thing they found), and used/broke/sold and gave away my things?

OTL

I suddenly remember so easily why I hated living with them. Distance makes the heart grow fonder, but close quarters makes me want to kill them. (Not literally, but growl growl.)

vivian_cullen 01-05-2010 02:26 AM

@ Clair- oh god, i remember being there for one of those talks, they aren't very pleasant from what i can remember hearing. But maybe if you just show her who the older and more dominant one is between the two of you, she will start respecting you more. Thats what I did to my younger sister when i actually lived with her. SHOW NO FEAR!!!

Cat Eye 01-05-2010 04:11 AM

@Lathrine

Eh...if I have that power-it needs to morph into a reading people's minds so I can understand what's going on in this class power.

Who else would mother get to complain/bitch at if not me?

Someday I will move way far enough I have reason to never come back....though I may to see others.

Wynna 01-05-2010 04:31 AM

My boss is always yelling at me for stuff that is out of my control. If another staff member calls in sick or late, he takes his frustrations out on me. I'm one of the better, dare I say one of the best workers he has..and he is always yelling or getting up set at/with me. I think it is because he sets my work habits at a higher standard and expects more from me than the other workers, so when I slip up or it looks like I slip up he gets upset. However, if somebody else were to make the same mistake it wouldn't even phase him.

But he mostly yells at me for things that are out of my control for example we were really busy yesterday and he's yelling at me why we have no product and no staff, but yet he's the one who makes the schedules and orders the deliveries...I'm just there to do my shift. I guess he needs a person to vent to, but I wish he realized tht opposed to a person to vent at.

Customers also constantly yell at us, oh by the way I work at a McDonalds. For example we have these new coupons out and it's single use per customer. So people come in with a whole booklet of coupons thinking they can use them all up at once, but they can't, they can only use one as the coupon clearly states. So when we restate this fact they get upset and sometimes storm out, ask for another manager/server, complain, sometimes throw stuff and yell at you. Meanwhile, it's not our fault we don't make the coupons. Sometimes, working a McDonalds seems to label you as less of a human I guess...

Clair Voyant 01-09-2010 12:45 PM

@ Wynna::
Ugh, that must get really annoying. -__-

@ Vivian:

Oh yeah, I remember that you were there once... ugh, that was so embarresing.

Mystic 01-09-2010 02:21 PM

I don't have it happen with family but at work I had it happening for a while. This girl I work with and i used to be really really good friends and, to put a long story short, we don't talk any more and haven't talked in months outside of work. She will not say anything to my face and just nods or shakes her head when I ask her about things.

So one day I come into work and there's a note on the podium for me saying that I should check for water bottles leaking. Which confused me because I hadn't beent o work in over a week and it was dated the night before. I ignored it and tossed it out. Then later that week she left another note saying "If you use the rest of the food in the food bin refill it" and something about replacing trash bags from the night before.

I never worked the night before so I said something to her and she started yelling at me about how I should clean up after myself because I left a mess the night before. So I calmly told her that I never came in that night because I was sick and that she should get over me and move on if she has that much built up negative energy against me.

Synthetika 01-11-2010 01:34 AM

My old boss... she was a nutcase...

So she is just some rich little housewife who wanted a hobby so her husband bought the place i was working for from my really cool chill fun boss and then stuck me with this retarded woman who knew NOTHING about computers, video games, or how to run a buisness....

Well since she didnt know guess who she yelled at all the time when things went wrong? yup me... I was the only worker there my old boss loved me told me that I was the best thing he decided to do with this buisness and even told her that... does she care? no....

Anyways onto the subject.

so whenever the computers started acting up she would scream at me "you are downloading stuff you're putting viruses on these computers!" I just stood there shocked... like what? im pretty good on computers I dont give them viruses are you kidding so I replied nicely "I havent downloaded anything on these computers" and her response "well you did something to them now I have to fix them!" no she doesnt she doesnt know how... so she calls my old boss who is a computer tech and he comes to fix it and tells us that it was a virus carried over from her programs she installed. Did she apologize to me? nope.

And for all the times something went wrong with the computer she seemed to just push buttons... and I would try to tell her were to go but she for some reason thought I was wrong and would do all this wild stuff that did nothing to fix the problem and finally she would do what I suggested doing which would fix the problem did she thank me or apologize? nope she acted like she did it all herself after a while I would sit back and smirk as she idiotically pushed buttons.

Another time when it was my day off and she was in there working she did the bank deposit well she took out too much money and the next day I come in and count that my drawer is 20 dollars short, so I call to let her know... automatically she starts pointing the finger at me "Did you miscount something what happened to the money!?" im just like "I dont know I just got here." So we check the bank statement and compare it to our sales records from the day before. guess who took out 20 extra? she did.

Alright there was one day when our system crashed... she yelled at me the whole day... so she started doing her thing acting like she knows how to work on computers and she screwed it up even more! she saved over the backup file for that day with a blank file and yelled at me for that... I had sat on the phone for hours with the tech department for our software we use getting codes to debug it and get the backup running well since she saved over it all of our sales records for the day were gone... she decided to step in and fix it herself and proceeded to yell at me to remember all of the sales we got and manually enter them... like are you serious?

she would call me on all my days off and yell at me for something that was happening while I wasnt there. I finally got sick of it, I had a second job and talked to them about more hours which they gave me right away so I called her and quit, I quit a week before she was supposed to go on vacation it felt so good to leave her hanging! you know what she said to me "Oh no I'm sorry please dont quit, I didnt mean to make you feel like I was blaming you for anything I wasnt yelling at you, I really need you here" im just like "nope sorry I tried sticking around and I cant do it good luck" she ended up called her husband who also called me apologizing for her trying to get me to come back, no way I had hours at my other job who actually appreciated me... haha sorry im ranting now.. thats all.

Firoren Slyshot 02-08-2010 03:04 AM

My sister stays up until 3 a.m. on my mother's computer, then she decides to let me on. I barely have enough time to check my e-mails, until my dad walks out, and the mom finds out that I was up. I haven't been on Menewsha in a while because of this. Hopefully, it'll get at least a bit better. I'm going to start getting on schedule, though.
