Family relationships aren't about avoiding conflict. (It's hard to imagine how people who spend so much time together could ever do that.) They're about resolving it. But sometimes, siblings act in such entitled ways, you have to wonder if they aren't doing the opposite and messing with you on purpose.

From "borrowing" clothes without asking to shamelessly taking the last slice of pizza, the photos ahead perfectly capture the eye rolls, complaints, and petty arguments that inevitably come with having brothers and sisters.

    Whether the children are just toddlers or have already grown into teens, it's common for siblings to battle it out quite a bit.

    Research suggests that up to 80% have engaged in at least mild sibling aggression, such as hitting.

    This behavior isn't unique to humans, and humans are nowhere near as bad as some other animals are. Many animal siblings kill each other, sometimes in front of their helpless parents, too. In certain bird species, the phenomenon is so common that it even has a name: obligate siblicide.

    Black eagles are particularly vicious. In one of the observed accounts, the slightly older chick attacked its slightly younger sibling 38 times over the younger's three-day life span, delivering 1,569 blows with its sharp beak. (There was, by the way, more than enough food for both.)

I came back to a few dishes scattered and some water bottles around the room. Okay… annoying but no big deal. Turned on my tv and the screen is messed up. I asked him what happened and I won’t get mad but he said he did nothing. My tv had no problems at all before leaving. I’m crying out of frustration.

    I know it sounds paranoid, but take pictures and notes about the condition of your room / apartment before you let anyone stay there alone. Next time, face your brother before you leave and tell him "as of right now, my TV and all other electronics are in perfect working condition, the room is clean and nothing is broken. If I come home and any of that has changed, it's because of something YOU did. Prepare to buy me new stuff if that happens."

    reddit.com Report

    Since siblings spend so much time together, especially growing up, some of what we see in the pictures is bound to happen.

    "Mild levels of sibling fighting are a normal part of childhood and can even contribute to important developmental processes and maturation," explains Jeff Garofano, PhD, a child psychologist at Johns Hopkins Children’s Center and Assistant Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.

    According to Dr. Garofano, the reasons why siblings may fight can change depending on their age:

    1. Toddlers: Not wanting to share, wanting more attention, feeling frustrated, or not being able to communicate clearly.
    2. Elementary age: Feeling like things are “unfair” or fighting over family roles (ex: who gets to set the table or make the rules in a game).
    3. Teens: Perceived privacy violations, competition over achievements/popularity/parent approval, or fighting over resources such as access to video games, the family car, clothing, etc.

    Research has found that sibling bullying is linked to an array of negative outcomes in young adults, including a lower sense of competence, life satisfaction, and self-esteem. It also has the potential to double a person's risk of depression and self-harm in early adulthood.

    One of the best ways to determine whether sibling aggression is within normal limits is to assess its emotional impact. Dr. Garofano recommends asking yourself the following: "When the fight is over, are they able to return to friendly interactions in a reasonable amount of time? Or does the emotional impact on one or both siblings seem to linger for longer than a day?"

    My Sister Came To Our House In Order To Take Her Things And During That She Smashed My Monitor. I Love My Life

    Broken computer monitor showing a damaged anime scene, illustrating sibling shenanigans and mischief.

    My sister a**sed me since I can remember. She used to beat me, but when I got taller, she only a**sed me mentally.

    I inherited a chunk of land, and so did my mum. So we decided that we'll buy an apartment for ourselves, and my sister will buy one for herself. Time goes on, and we finally moved in here, so I felt confident, and yesterday, when she started mistreating me, I stood up for myself. She got mad and started punching me. At first, I was hesitant, but I've decided that "she has no power over me anymore, it's my apartment." So I started defending myself. She then quickly realized that I'm not as weak as I look, so she let go of me. Sister then started yelling at me, "Get the f**k out of here," and I said, "No, YOU get the f**k out of here, this is MY apartment, not yours." So she moved out to our old house (she's renting her apartment)

    Today, I had to grab some of my things from my old house because I forgot some of them. And then in my sister's room, I found my old mouse that had gone missing since the day I moved out (turned out that she took it). So today she came to my apartment to smash it. She then told me things like: "You don't have a sister anymore," or "I really hope you will die."

    Sister Refuses To Actually Clean Litter Room

    Sand spilled on carpet and two bags filled with sand showing sibling shenanigans causing mess indoors

    This is what it looks like right now (the spots that are cleaner in 1st photo is where the litter boxes used to be I moved them to start cleaning). My sister and I both have a cat, so we both take care of the cats. I do the food and water, and she does the litter boxes. She's been fussed at by our mom more than just once, and she says she'll clean it, then she never does.

    This same thing happened when I used to do the litter, and she used to do the water and food bowls. She wouldn't keep those clean or feed them for half a day, and it got to the point algae kept forming in their water bowl cause she'd never clean it, so I offered to switch since she said I had the easier task, so we did.

    Well, guess we can see how that turned out. I've also offered to just do all cat chores, but we got in an argument over that because I told her she could just take my other chore of doing the bathroom, trashcan, and I'd do both cat chores.
    She didn't want to, though, because she says our mom would get mad. The thing is, our mom is angry anyway cause she won't clean it, and now I'm stuck cleaning it and dealing with the fact she's gonna yell at me later for cleaning it.

    Unless there's some indication on the other side, I'd say that's really stupid packaging/labelling design.

    My Brother Took My Charger With Him To His Work Without Asking My Permission And Argued With Me About It

    Text message exchange showing siblings arguing about borrowing a phone charger without permission in sibling shenanigans.

    This is his first shift for this work – he’s basically sanding wood boards for tiles the whole day.

    We live in the same house. Our parents bought us our own chargers, one each, so we can charge our phones and tablets. He broke his I don’t even know how many months ago and I’ve been letting him borrow mine ever since. He hasn’t bought another one because he’ll have to pay for it himself.

    He left the house while I was still asleep this morning. I told my dad and he didn’t seem too bothered that my brother basically stole it. He just told me to go down and buy another one that he can reimburse me for. I’m of course thankful that my dad is so generous that he’d still be willing to pay for it, but I feel like he’s missing the point.

    My brother is naturally stubborn and it’s made worse because he has diagnosed level two autism. He genuinely never thinks he’s in the wrong. He thinks everyone who argues with him is gaslighting him or twisting things around. He does this sort of thing a lot, ever since we were kids. Since he was diagnosed about last year, he hasn’t been getting adequate punishment for this kind of behaviour because he can’t help it. I know it’s true, that he can’t, but it just makes me feel like he can walk all over me and not get any consequences.

    yes he can help it, i work with autistic people who have a way worse diagnosis than him and they have never stolen a thing. autistic people need clear lines and boundaries, its a disservice not to give them any.

    Okay, for anyone who doesn't know this. At a good butcher shop in a grocery store, you actually can ask the butcher to trim the meat for you, professionally. It does happen.

    My Sister Takes Out The Stuff From Oreo Double Stuf And Throws Them Away

    Partially eaten cookies inside an open package, showing separated cookie cream and biscuits in a sibling shenanigans scene.

    I mean, I'd eat them as quadruple stuf, but it's just so much sugar. So ultimately, no one eats them, and they all go to waste.

    That's sick. Why not buy regular Oreos? At least that way you won't be wasting as much stuff. Or the new skinny Oreos, with even less stuff. I'd love triple or quadruple stuff.

    My Sister Threw A Brush At My Head

    Dark room with a c*****d computer monitor showing a cityscape and a colorful backlit keyboard on the desk.

    The monitor had already been hit at the top a couple of months ago, so it was already kinda messed up. I guess the brush was the nail on the coffin, and it just gave up. If not for it already being broken, it probably wouldn’t be destroyed. The crack is only internal, no outside damage.
