I've a three year old sister, half step sister to be exact. She is a leo, a pain in the butt, and a total b--eh...nvrmind. There are times whre I just lose it with her, and then afterwards I feel guilt. What kind of karma is this? This is a karma, right? I won't even go into it, but she...ugh! Either way, am i gaining bad karma by trying to dicipline her, or grabbing her out of the corner so she dont kick herself (but at the same time generating bad feelings) whihc brings me to another question. NO one can be good and gracious all the time, and sometimes thye lose it. And will karma punish for that? What are the things karma will punish for, and what will it/she/he won't?

I have a sister too, she's seven now. but i remember when she was 3, I was 21 and moved out. It seemed to me that she was totally out of control, and everytime I went over to my mom's house I was sooo irritated by the fact that my sis got away with everything., no bedtime. ate whatever she wanted.

like i already said, she's seven now. much more cooperative. and I didn't have any kids then, now I have my own three year old. And it's just very trying. At that age, they're learning to assert themselves. they can say no, and will push any limit they can.

I think that if you feel guilty about how you react to her, you should step back and see if perhaps you are being too harsh. I think we all know what brings bad karma.

I htink sometimes we feel badly just because the children do, when it isn't connected to us. just a reaction.

While she may be acting out, you are allowing it to manipulate your emotions. She knows this and it is attention. Try stepping back and see her emotions as SEPERATE from yours. Watch her as though you were watching a movie, detatched emotion. You will feel better and better every time you seperate your emotions from hers. Pretty soon you will see her in a different light. (her acting out is her stuff, not yours.

Yeah, I see what you guys are saying. ANd I will, thanks. But it's just so frustrating, I mean, last year, was a crappy year and all, and there were a lot of..eh..emotional issues tying with my biological dad, my stepdad, and her. And I suppose not all of it has died away. But anyway, I will, and I'm sure it'll get better.
