Right,when your a teenager, the last thing you want to do is have to act like an 8 year old,right?
My mum and dad are divorced and i was with my dad for a month or two and my dad has a fiend from work.He has an 8 year old daughter.he is really fussy,the exact opposite of my parents.When shes around ,my dad and i cant talk about all the things we usually talk about.books..new movies..what we're gonna do tomorrw(if it involves anything that (8 years olds name,we'll call he k) cant't do because it upsets her dad and i guess that it makes her feel more fussed over.i always keep a consideration of other peoples feelings and i am more then glad to share my time witht them but,when you cant do the simplest thing such as walk home from the shop yourself,my dad cant either...

i know i'm overreacting,but,i need to get my feelings out!

does this happen and annoy anyone else?

Sorry to hear you're having so many troubles! *hugs* It -is- harder with younger kids around! I have a 10 year old myself, and I still have to watch what I say. *laughs* Especially while I'm driving.

But, it was frusterating for me as well when I was growing up, having to watch what I did, said, acted like, in front of younger cousins and such.

Sadly though, it's needed. Children that age are little mimes. If you do anything in front of them, especially the bad stuff, you better believe they'll do it themselves! My little girl does virtually everything I do, even acts like I do, because if they love you, and look up to you, they'll imitate you to a T!

So...look at it this way. If your dad is concerned about what you do/say/etc.. in front of her, he probably knows that annoying little 8 year old looks up to you, and will become monkey-see, monkey-do around you, because you're special to them. Not every kid likes their older sibling, so be proud you have a kid that looks up to you enough to want to be just like you when they get older!

Until then, just take a breath, and talk to your dad about getting some one-on-one time with him so you -can- talk to him without reservations. It helps!

And, hope this helped as well. Good luck to you!

Yes, and it's very frustrating!!

I can't say some of my most common..and favorite..words because of it. It's also partly my fault, though, because the words are innapropriate for children..
