You're supposed to be the parent, but instead you act like the child. All your behavior is plainly a child's behavior.

And don't get me wrong just because I know you just heard what I said and you didn't listen. You interpreted it by yourself.

I'm not saying that you are a child, I'm telling you that your actions reflects a child's behavior.

I mean: leaving my cup in the sink and wading the rest of the dishes? Cleaning only your room and leaving the whol house in a mess like it isn't your home? Not answering anyone's question properly just so you don't seem like 'you're controlling their life'? Taking out all the laundry and only leaving my clothes hanging? Having my brothers act against me so I could learn my lesson? Changing my mattress? Or replacing my towel with  a random towel?

So you're like punishing me with chores? Or punishing the whole family?

Do you see yourself? Do you see how idiotic that is?

Just talk it out for God's sake! Just talk! A simple conversation so you could at least seem like the adult in these situation.

And don't you worry about those chores, I'll do them gladly. They're no punishment. I'll gladly clean the whole house including your room, because I'm not that childish.

I'm ready to have any sort of conversation required to solve any issue, but are you? I'm ready to admit that I'm wrong but are you? Are you ready to admit that you did me wrong most of the time? Are you ready to admit that sometimes you might be wrong? Are you ready to admit that you are not always right? Or that you are not perfect? And that there's always someone who will be better than you? Are you ready to put your ego aside just for once? Just to seem like a normal human being and not a narcissist?

I doubt it.

Instead you want me to admit that I'm wrong and you're an angel. You want me to take the bigger step, although you're the parent in the room. You want me to be the bigger person and apologize to you so you don't hurt your precious ego. You want me to let you be the smaller person who is so rock headed that she won't give up your grounds even if you might be wrong.

And let me tell you that all of this, is called stubbornness and childishness.

So yeah, act like a child as long as you want. I will be waiting for you to have an adult conversation when you're ready to act  like an adult.
