  • Is it Theft?

    Jenn001 If you have read anything about my sister, you know that she is the epitome of current society.

    My sister has $2000 in her savings account.  Know why?  Cuz mom and dad got a loan for $5000 to help her get a house she didn't get after all.  She gave back a bit after mom begged her for it, but she kept about $3000.

    She goes out 3-4 times a week with her friends to the movies or dinner or something.  She always eats out.

    She spends $900 a month paying to live in a hotel instead of getting an apartment.  (And you can get a good apartment there for about $400.)

    She now has my car, since she's broken hers.  (Third car she's broken.)  So say goodbye to Nataku. (My car.)  And Dad and Mom pay for her insurance.

    And she has the gall to ask my parents--the same people who have no money cuz they pay their bills, and never go out to play or go out to eat (haven't gone to play in 2 years)--if they'll pay for about $400 in bills, otherwise she's going to jail for writing hot checks.  Of course, my parents being the great people they are, they don't want her to go to jail so they pay it.

    The only good thing that's come of this is my dad doesn't yell at me as much because I'm currently his favourite child.  (And this has never happened before since I was born. [He was so proud he kidnapped me right after I had my umbilical cord clipped and ran (well, not ran ran) the hospital halls to show me off.  Mom gave him a good whack for that.])

    Dad wasn't able to buy something he really wanted to for his students because his extra money has gone to paying for Jennifer.  His money that he finally had to play with after a long while of only paying bills went toward yet more money thrown my sister's way that she sees as free money and will never pay back.

    Mom says that she's not giving Jennifer any more money, but as soon as Jennifer's in trouble again, I know that Mom and Dad will help out.

    Is hording money and begging my parents to pay for her, in a way, theft?  I think it is.  She can pay for herself, but she wants money to go out to play.  Something she really doesn't deserve.

    your anime is really cute!

    @micsui817@revelife - Thanks.  I'm trying to draw some western style stuff, but you have to work a lot harder on the musclature.  Hopefully I'll get it soon.  (Though I'll never back down from doing Eastern-style work.)

    Some people guilt their relatives into things for as long as they can, because it's simply easier for them to live that way.

    I think that indicates something about them.

    @moritheil - Feeling hate is against my religion.  It's a sin as much as lying is.  But right now I absolutely hate my sister.  She's doing this against good and decent people who feel it an obligation to help their children.


    It makes me feel as though I'm using my parents (I live at home, but I work around the house to try to make up for it.)  And I feel as though I'm no better than her.

    @Wukei - You know, just because you love someone doesn't mean you never get angry with them.  Also, cliched as it is, someone needs to say this: you are not your sister.

  • Wukei

    @moritheil - There's a difference in getting angry with and hating.  Her actions have made me actually HATE her.  I know I'm not her (it is SO obvious, if you saw us you could tell we were related only because we look slightly similar.  But you'd think she was adopted by someone else with the way she acts so unlike the rest of the family.)  But I don't want to tell her how I feel because it would only upset my parents, and "honour your mother and father" is higher on the list than telling someone what I think they're doing wrong.
