Ah, siblings. Can’t live with ‘em, can’t live without ‘em. As a kid, I loved having brothers when it came to playing games or celebrating holidays together, but riding in the car together, with the three of us crammed into the backseat, was like being in a war zone. We could enjoy peace for about 5 minutes of the ride, but inevitably, someone’s joking or playing around would cross a line and suddenly at least one of us was screaming or crying. Now, I was never a perfect sibling myself, as I vividly remember slamming my younger brother’s fingers in a door once out of rage. (I still feel bad about that one...) But we’re adults now! We’ve learned how to set our differences aside, and oddly enough, we actually love spending time with one another now.

Unfortunately, however, not all siblings mature at the same pace, and sometimes conflicts between brothers and sisters persist into adulthood. In fact, new conflicts can even arise, due to siblings acting extremely entitled. Below, we’ve gathered some of the most appalling screenshots of conversations between siblings that have been shared on the Choosing Beggars subreddit that might make you even more thankful for your own brothers and sisters. Try not to become too furious while scrolling through this list, and don't forget to upvote the conversations that would make you consider blocking a relative!

The parable of the drowning man I feel like really matched religious viewpoints during the pandemic. I am religious myself, and I find it utterly sad and stupid that people are so ignorant. Also, weren't people expecting a war king in the bible instead of Jesus? Their savior was not what they expected. Hypocrites, the lot. (from Wikipedia: The parable of the drowning man, also known as Two Boats and a Helicopter, is a short story, often told as a joke, most often about a devoutly Christian man, frequently a minister, who refuses several rescue attempts in the face of approaching floodwaters, each time telling the would-be rescuers that God will save him. After turning down the last, he drowns in the flood. After his death, the man meets God and asks why he did not intervene. God responds that he sent all the would-be rescuers to the man's aid on the expectation he would accept the help.)

Because of FB policy regarding Covid 19 and vaccines. It has taken down many posts, pages and groups spreading misinformations. So if they want to beat FB's algorithm, they choose to self censor themselves or change a word like vaccine in vaxxine.

    Do you have any siblings, pandas? Apparently, about 82% of us do, which means you likely know the experience of having to share everything while growing up. You might remember getting picked on by an older brother or sister, or perhaps doing the "picking" yourself, if you happen to be the oldest. Sibling relationships are often rocky while we’re young and growing up, as we can be competitive with one another or frustrated when it feels like we don't all receive the same treatment. But especially by the time we reach adulthood, our siblings can become our best friends. They were our first friends anyway, so why not nurture that relationship for the rest of our lives?

    ADVERTISEMENT

    Your brothers and sisters can understand you in a way that even your closest friends may not, as they grew up in the same household and shared similar experiences. But unfortunately, the sibling to best friend pipeline doesn’t work for everyone. And sometimes becoming adults leads to an even greater wedge forming between brothers and sisters. This list features some shockingly egregious examples of sibling behavior that might inspire you to send a quick text to your brothers or sisters letting you know that you love them. And you appreciate them for never demanding money from you…

    Your child can learn to wait in line. He can learn that he isn't the centre of the universe. In fact, it's important to teach him those things. In the words of Bo Burnham "There's other people, you selfish a$$hole!" Also, if it breaks his heart to have to wait for a treat.... Oh boy, you've got other problems...

    Even if you were that utilitarian a dog costs much more than a shoe, not to mention all the care and food that went into raising it. You just lost a shoe, which isn't a big deal, your sister might lose a dog that she is emotionally attatched to, which is horrible.

    OP: "I really can't take the drug test." Coming from a former addict, that is NOT a phrase you say if all you have in your system is weed (which wouldn't surprise the dad as he already caught OP smoking it.) OP has other drugs in his system, I guarantee that. OP would spend his trust fund money on more drugs. Addicts literally cannot help it. You don't want to know how much of my savings I burned through during my (thankfully brief) dance with cocaine. (Hint: all of it.) OP wants to use this money to buy more drugs. Absolutely.

    If it is just weed, I don't get what the big deal is. I support legalization. Still, the dad is in charge of the trust fund so he can make it contingent on his son not smoking weed if he wants to.

    If you and your siblings can’t seem to be in the same room together for more than an hour without getting under one another’s skin, know that you’re not alone. Sadly, it’s quite common to have to deal with conflicts between siblings, even as adults, so Kristin McCarthy wrote a piece for Love to Know discussing this topic. Kristin notes that it can first be helpful to get to the bottom of where this conflict is stemming from. 

    It might be because you and your sibling have different relationships with your fellow family members, such as being much closer to your parents or another sibling. Or perhaps the conflict is rooted in competition between the two of you or an ongoing sibling rivalry that never seems to end. Whatever the cause may be, it’s best to identify it to work on resolving it.

    Kristin goes on to write that, if you and your sibling are able to sit down and attempt to work through your issues, try to confront the conflict head-on. “While you may have stress and anxiety over sitting down with them, it is important that this initial step be made so you can move towards a place where you are comfortable in close proximity, despite differences. If you decide to meet up, pick a location that is comfortable for everyone, yet also neutral. You'll want to be on as even ground as possible for this.”

    In the update to the posting, the OP said that they demanded to be paid in addition to the free housing. OP asked 'What other option does my sister have?' Well, it turned out the sister did have another option. A friend is going to take the free housing for dogcare offer and OP is back at square one, unpaid, living far from uni at Mom and Dad's house.

    I like how OP says they "can't afford to live on her own.... " Then complains about getting to live on her own in exchange for simply taking care of 2 dogs. Also having the ability to get a part time job to cover any additional expenses considering all the bills are being paid for. That's 6 months they could save up money so when the time comes they can afford to try to live in their own.

    Honestly, I would be afraid to leave my dogs with such a stupid person. I doubt she has the ability to commit to the care of the dogs if something unexpected turned up like the need for a vet. She'd probably let the dog die and tell the owners that she was too busy to attend to the dog's needs cause she had to go to class!!

    When it comes to resolving conflicts with a sibling, Kristin recommends following a few basic guidelines: present your problems, use “I” statements to avoid playing the blame game, remain calm, practice active listening, offer possible solutions, and check back in later. Issues don’t usually disappear overnight, but with some effort on both sides, wounds can be healed. 

    ADVERTISEMENT

    Then it’s best to work on preventing any future conflicts. To do so, Kristin notes that it can be helpful to focus on preparing yourself before the next interaction you have with this sibling. “Consider all the possibilities surrounding the meeting. This mental preparation will help you calm your anxiety beforehand,” she writes. Then, remember to avoid confrontational conversation. If certain topics always lead to an argument, just skip them altogether. If a situation becomes uncomfortable, try to shut it down before it escalates, and if it comes down to it, simply limit your interactions with one another altogether.

    If the issue at hand does happen to be a sibling rivalry, Dr. Elizabeth Scott wrote an article discussing how to handle the accompanying stress of sibling rivalries for VeryWell Mind. She first notes that instead of immediately jumping to frustration with your sibling, it might be helpful to understand where the rivalry started. They often come from parental favoritism, which can cause lasting impacts on children. If the rivalry began in adulthood, however, it might have been caused by geographical proximity, shared personality features, or other factors such as personal views. 

    Wherever the rivalry stems from, however, Dr. Scott urges readers to try not to take it personally. “Understand that your parent may not ‘love’ the other sibling more, they just feel closer or more invested in their lives, for whatever reason,” she writes. “They may not even be aware of it, and most likely are not doing it to hurt your feelings.”

    Every one is making this WAY more difficult than it needs to be but either way, yes, pliers. Use the plyers in one smooth gentle pulling motion to remove the broken piece from your computer. Use a second, faster and swifter, stabbing motion to put those plyers into your brother's neck. Then take your computer and your newly won candy back to your room and enjoy. Told you it was simple.

    But if you’re having trouble coping with an adult sibling rivalry, Dr. Scott recommends finding support elsewhere in your life, such as among friends or other family members who make you feel loved unconditionally. And resist the urge to perpetuate your sibling rivalry. Don’t go out of your way to compete or blame them for being favored. “You’ll also feel better if you accept that you may not get as much support and approval from parents as you want, and that’s okay,” Dr. Scott notes. “If you don’t come at them from a place of need, you will actually have more personal power.” Finally, remember to focus on what’s most important: your own family and nurturing the relationships that are most meaningful to you.

    Might be helpful to know how old "little" brother is. Maybe he's 11 and has rarely been told know or had to reap any consequences. I am sure there are better options for disciplining a child (if they happen to be one) than to call police and report a theft.

    I have many relatives that I text, including a sister, and I text my friends, etc., and I assure you that NONE OF US punctuate our sentences in texts like this. We definitely don't add periods to the end of every sentence in our texts. XD I'm honestly a little skeptical of ANY "text screenshot" where both parties are texting each other with flawless grammar, especially family members XD Not denying that this screenshot is real, just sayin' that whenever I see perfectly-punctuated text message screenshots, I'm a little sus. EDIT: I literally said I DON'T deny that this is true. I graduated with a degree in English/Creative Writing; I'm obsessed with proper grammar, and you can check my comment history to see I almost always use proper grammar. But I accept, I have been soundly told that I am an idiot and an a-hole for assuming that all of my personal experiences with texting friends and family makes me suspicious of grammatically-perfect text screenshots posted on Reddit for karma and updoots.

    The examples on this list are mainly siblings who have exhibited extremely entitled behavior, but all sorts of issues can cause rifts in sibling relationships. If you need some advice for how to get along well with your adult siblings, here are some tips from Laurie Kramer, a professor of applied psychology at Northeastern University in Boston. She first recommends making time to see one another outside of your familial obligations, like going to mom and dad’s for holidays. She also recommends resisting the urge to assume you know things about your sibling just because you grew up together. Allow them to tell and show you who they are now and have honest conversations about how you remember growing up and how things have changed.

    Opening and closing itself is $1600 here. $200 at least for weekly. Doesn't include the maintenance (sand change.) Heating is even more. I would guess about $750 a month on electric and more on propane, depending on how big the pool is and what temp you put it to

Actually, I'm baffled they were able to even write anything at all considering their note makes zero sense. I know what each word means individually, but when they are thrown together as OP has so eloquently done here, any understanding eludes me.

They never stole my money, but they watched MY spending like a hawk and would question every withdrawal/purchase. Joint finances with family members is usually a nasty thing once you're an adult, unless you have a good family. I don't XD

    Kramer also reminds that siblings must remember to stop comparing themselves to one another. “Just as when your younger brother got a bigger slice of cake, it might not seem fair that, as an adult, they end up with a better job or bigger house,” Katie Hunt writes for CNN Health. “But these are old feelings that don’t stand up to honest scrutiny. We all make different choices, and there’s no innate reason your path should be similar to your sibling’s.”

    Despite the fact that you share about 50% of your DNA with your siblings, you don’t always need to maintain relationships with them. If you’ve worked hard for years attempting to mend your relationship to no avail, it might be healthier for you to just stop trying. “When or how a person might know it’s time to cut ties completely depends on the individual situation and comfort level. If there’s persistent emotional manipulation, physical abuse, or other unhealthy or destructive behaviors that are causing harm, then it may be best to end the relationship,” says Kalley Hartman, clinical director at Ocean Recovery in Newport Beach, California. “If they’re not good for you emotionally, psychologically, or physically, it’s better to have a chosen family with friends, rather than sibling relationships chosen for us — especially if nothing’s going to change in that sibling dynamic.”

    According to OP on Reddit (I did a little digging), OP struggled with addiction over 10 years ago. OP's sister still gives them s**t about it. Perhaps sister did provide help or support during OP's struggle with addiction, or maybe sister feels like OP's parents spent more time/money on OP trying to help them, and sister "made sacrifices" because she didn't get what she wanted during that time. OP doesn't really specify, so I'm speculating that last bit.

Just because you grew up together doesn’t mean that they’re entitled to treat you however they like. Keep upvoting the pictures that you find most appalling, and then let us know in the comments below if you have any personal stories of sibling entitlement to share. Then, if you’re interested in reading another Bored Panda article featuring relatives who don’t understand boundaries or manners, you can find more “choosing beggars” right here

    Riley, I like most of your comments, however, you've got to spell "whine" correctly. Whine (s), whined, whining.....long i, silent e. Not sure what can "whinge" could possibly be/mean.

    How do you know he did it on purpose? Wouldn't it make more sense to buy yourself some as now he can no longer borrow hers, and he still needs to purchase news ones for the ones he damaged.

    While you got downvoted for some reason, I tend to agree. Compared to some of the other things on here, "My brother paused my downloads to download something of his own!!!" is pretty tame and mild. Irritating? Yes. "So entitled it'll make your blood boil" as the article title states? lol no. How entitled do YOU have to be to feel like your brother pausing your GAME DOWNLOADS is something that wrecks your life enough that you have to post it on the internet looking for sympathy? likes? for the lols? I'm sure I'll get downvoted for my opinion as well, but OP is a bit whiny. It's a download, friend. He didn't destroy your console, or your games, or even delete your stuff, etc. Yes, I'd be pissed too if a sibling did this to me. Would I post it on the internet while declaring him entitled? Nah.

    Liz, if you live in or near to a big city I can see why you'd use public transport. However, imagine living in a small village. One bus an hour that only goes to the local town. Tons of people will have to drive/cab or get a lift to the airport.

    That feels familiar. My mom was always telling me that I "spent too much time" playing video games and/or being on the computer when I was a kid, and once phones were a thing, she was always telling me I was going to strain my eyes staring at my phone all day. Now, she has like 3 iPads and her iPhone that she plays Candy Crush on ALL DAY, and she has TWO computers at home (a Mac and a PC) and she plays solitaire on the PC and makes virtual puzzles on the Mac. ALL. DAY. How the turns have tabled!
