Trying To Teach My Little Sister To Read?
Have you tried combining images with words? For example, if she's knows what a cat is and can say the word "cat", show the the word combined with an image. Break the word down into its baser sounds. Start with simple words like that and work your way up. Some kids need the combined visual/audio learning. Some children have more trouble in different fields than others. She may excel in other areas and be a slow learned when it comes to reading. I would take notice of how she learns other things...does she learn by copying someone else, doing it her self, does she work better with visuals, etc. Also, when you read to her, try doing it together. If it's a picture book, first ask her what is going on in the picture? For example, let's say you had a picture of a cat playing in the grass with a ball. Have her identify the different objects and associate those objects with words. Just reading to her is passive learning. Make learning active/interactive and she will pick up more.

Should I teach my little sister how to masturbate?
No don't. That isn't your place to do that. She will get there on her one day if she wants to. Please just don't. Especially since she doesn not know about sex. Again, this is not your place.
What can I do for my sister (15) after I found out she cuts herself? Should I tell our parents?
Answering this because when I was 15, my sister found out that I was cutting myself and handled it in the best way possible. She sat me down and had a long, honest discussion. She explained that she was under obligation to tell my parents about the situation for the sake of my own safety, but that she would always be on my side. She said that she would help me however I would most be comfortable with, but getting our parents involved was the smart and responsible thing to do, and that she would help me have a conversation with them about my problem. Most importantly, she told me she loved me, and that everything she did was to protect me.People self harm for a number of reasons; Regardless of why your sister is cutting, she needs help and she needs support. Be prepared for the fact that she may feel angry or betrayed if you involve your parents. When people are in this self-destructive frame of mind, they’ll often do anything to keep their self-harm a secret so they can avoid confronting their issues. Ultimately, I know you want what’s best for your sister, and what’s best for her right now is professional help. As someone who's been on the other end of this and received the treatment I needed because of my amazing sister, I can tell you that she will be so grateful to you for stepping in, even if it takes her a little while to come around.I wish you the best for you and your sister. :)
I just found out that my sister cuts herself. What should I tell her?
I’m not a psychiatrist but I’ve been there and self harmed. Please look at these tips and know it’s coming not from someone who is a psychiatrist but from someone who has suffered and knows how it felt.•Please for the love of your sister don’t tell your parents it will make everything worse.• Don’t stop her from cutting immediately. Be strict so say “ Be safe, i’m not going to stop you from cutting but do as many as you want but don’t do anything deep.•she’ll find the subject normal to talk about so don’t act all uptight and like it’s the worst thing ever.•don’t make her feel bad. Make her feel pretty and loved and like your there.•let her know you’ll always be there. Like when you ask “how are you?” And she reply’s “I’m fine or I’m okay” those two words mean I’m bloody dying and I need help and you need to tell her “are you really?, “what’s the matter?” And “I know what FINE/OKAY really mean”•if she is “okay” then use the word meh instead.•Just be there. If she wants to talk, let her talk and you just be a shoulder for her to lie on and so someone can listen.•Letting her tell her feeling will make her feel better and will help her feel lighter.•lastly, when she’s in a bad mood make her smile. Be random. Being random is probably one of the funniest things ever. Show her random pictures. If she says i’m Hungry send her a picture of the best looking food ever and say “I serve this ice cream to you and I hope you enjoy. I’m just sorry I cannot actually serve it to you.” Like it’s so random but it will make her smile.
Do I love my sister too much?
I'm 14 and a freshman in high school. My little sister is 10. I think I love my little sister more than I'm supposed too. She's my whole world. I adore her. We do fight sometimes, but I always give in first or feel bad right after. I buy her little gifts when I go out. I would do anything to protect her. Her safety comes first, so say we were orphaned and there was one piece of bread left and one of us would have to starve to death. Most people would give the bread up, but I think like this- If I give it to her, she doesn't have me there. Then who is going to protect her? I would let the both of us die. She needs me to watch over her, so if I gave her the bread who would prevent her from doing drugs or getting raped? However, if she died, I would kill myself immediately. I was born first, so I have to watch her over her WHEREVER she goes. What if she's lost in an afterlife? I just have to be with her, always. When we're adults I'm moving 20-30 minutes away from her house. I've felt this way towards her for only about two years. This bothers me (on some level) how none of my other friends are this close of their sisters. I think it's abnormal, but I can't help it. I truly believe that I was born to protect her. I feel like it's my destiny in life as the older sibling to take care of her however she needs. When she needs a friend, a mom, a sister, a boss, or anything else, I'll do it, if it'd help her (or if she begs/cries for a minute or two). I don't really know why since these feelings are one and a half years new. Any explanation for what these feelings are? Are these normal sisterly feelings? Does any girl feel like this with their little sister/s?
