How do you deal with your siblings if they don't understand you? My older sister thinks she knows everything, she was in denial about my cerebral palsy, now she thinks she knows everything about asperger. When we were living together, it was a NIGHTMARE! I did things to her & she did things to me, she did worst damage, she still playing the victim.

Sibling abuse is hard, and unfortunately, it's one of the least talked about forms of abuse. Have you told your parents? You could also see a therapist, even online. I'm sorry I don't have many online resources to share with you. I'm not sure if I'm being abused by my own sister, but I might be. She's a tween so it could be just a phase, but she does really hurtful things like steal my money and mock my stimming. I can at least tell you that you're not alone and you're not crazy.

That bad about your sister, try keeping your money in safe place where your sister can't touch it. Do you have a bank account? What is a tween?

I'm living on my own. My dad taking my sister side & my mom is gone. Unfortunately I still need her, my sister is in charge of my inheritance & I needed her credit to move out & her name is on my bills.

Wow, that sucks. Maybe you could find a source of income that is only in your name?

Sorry, a tween is someone in the late preteen/early teen age group. I thought that was a universal word.
