Stiched up

Today, I found a notebook my 12-year-old sister had been doodling in. Turns out the "doodles" were poems full of obscenities and descriptions of how she wanted to hurt herself. When I showed it to my mom, she accused me of writing the notebook myself to frame my sister. FML

Your mom is out of this world. This is not a thing to make jokes about.

I hope you didn't let the subject end there, OP, and got your sis the help she needs!

I think your mom is in denial. When I was in a bad place and tried to talk about it with my family, they took it as an insult to their parental skill and my upbringing. They were mad for weeks.

I'm really really sry bout ur sis and hope that eventually ur mom will believe u

Dont be a nark. Some people vent like that. I did. And trust me, you arent doing shit by interfering. Youll just make her life worse and she will want to do it more.

Your fault for looking her notebook. Stay out of people's shit next time.

You need to talk to your sister or someone else who can get her help if your mom won't. This is serious.

When I was a teen I wrote poems about death, suicide, hurting myself and others. I wasn't going to do any of that stuff, but I was depressed and writing that made me feel better. My sister found one of my poems and showed it to my mom. I felt she really violated my privacy and I was very angry with her for a long time. Our relationship still isn't what it used to be. Taking the notebook to your mom was a bad move. Better to talk to your sibling about it yourself.

You should probably keep a close eye on your sister. Try to help her as much as possible. Maybe even find a school counsler or something and let them know about these poems. If your mom won't listen you need to make someone else listen.

You should talk 2 ur sis 1 on 1 anytime i have a prob my older bro, who im closest to, always helps me, i love him for that!! ^_^

This is one of those rare moments where you have to just make a scene and say this is bullshit. Be like fine mom, I warned you, turn to your sister and say. listen you little shit, if you want to kill yourself, go ahead. I tried to get you help and now I am the one in trouble. Then walk off, let the two of them figure something out, and just dont accept any punishment they try to levy on you. But most of all, you made an effort. Call an aunt or uncle and see if you can't get a lock for your room. Or if you really want to go far, threaten to call child services if your mom doesn't want to believe you. It might work, it might not, but at least she will pay attention. (I hope).
