“I don’t get on (相处) well with my brother. He’s very different from me and we fight a lot.
“Sometimes I want to be alone. But my sister is always there!”
“I can’t have secrets (秘密) when my brother is around.”
“My sister uses my things and she doesn’t ask me first! I hate that!”
According to a website (网站), these problems are usual. Most teenagers have a difficult relationship (关系) with their siblings (兄弟姐妹). They fight a lot. Usually, teenagers are not worried about their siblings when things go badly for siblings. And they are not proud (骄傲) of them when things go well!
But most grown-ups (成年人) really care about their siblings and have a good relationship. So when do things change? According to the website, the answer is: Around the age of 25.
Madison is 28 years old. Her brother, Tyler, is 26. “I remember big, terrible fights with Tyler,” says Madison. “But now, our relationship is very different. We get on well with each other and we don’t fight. We go out together two or three times a month and we have a great time. We’re interested in the same things.”
But for teenage brothers and sisters with difficult relationships, what can they do? How can they get on well? Here are a few ideas.
* When your brother or sister uses your things, don’t get angry about that—learn to share.
* See your brother or sister as a friend—and be nice!
* Don’t tell people your brother’s or sister’s secrets.
* Give your brother or sister some time alone when he or she needs it.
* Of course, the other answer is: Just wait ten years!

We sit next to each other in class. She is good at math. And I do well in history. We often help each other to solve problems. We always go home together. Then we often play Chinese chess for an hour after finishing homework. Kate thinks very quickly and she usually wins.
Kate is learning to play the piano. I am learning to play the violin. We practice together every Monday and Wednesday. Now we can both play very well. Sometimes Kate stays the night at my house, or I stay the night at her house. We always have a good time. Do you ever stay the night at your best friend’s house?
Write soon!
Yours,

“I don’t get on (相处) well with my brother. He’s very different from me and we fight a lot.
“Sometimes I want to be alone. But my sister is always there!”
“I can’t have secrets (秘密) when my brother is around.”
“My sister uses my things and she doesn’t ask me first! I hate that!”
According to a website (网站), these problems are usual. Most teenagers have a difficult relationship (关系) with their siblings (兄弟姐妹). They fight a lot. Usually, teenagers are not worried about their siblings when things go badly for siblings. And they are not proud (骄傲) of them when things go well!
But most grown-ups (成年人) really care about their siblings and have a good relationship. So when do things change? According to the website, the answer is: Around the age of 25.
Madison is 28 years old. Her brother, Tyler, is 26. “I remember big, terrible fights with Tyler,” says Madison. “But now, our relationship is very different. We get on well with each other and we don’t fight. We go out together two or three times a month and we have a great time. We’re interested in the same things.”
But for teenage brothers and sisters with difficult relationships, what can they do? How can they get on well? Here are a few ideas.
* When your brother or sister uses your things, don’t get angry about that—learn to share.
* See your brother or sister as a friend—and be nice!
* Don’t tell people your brother’s or sister’s secrets.
* Give your brother or sister some time alone when he or she needs it.
* Of course, the other answer is: Just wait ten years!
