Need help / advice with immature sister.?

I have a sister who will be 20 years old in August. I'm worried she has an impairment or a social deficit of sorts. Let me describe her to you:





She still lives at home with mother (not a big deal in itself, but there's more...)





She doesn't work full time.





She doesn't go to school.





She is SCARED to stay home alone!





Mother is on vacation and has left sister in charge of younger sister who is 17. Older sister keeps unplugging younger sister's alarm clock in the middle of the night so that she won't wake up for school; therefore, older sister won't have to stay home alone during the day!





She is too scared to learn how to drive, doesn't even have a learner's permit.





Once had a crying (literal) fit at a huge social family function because I said she back washed into my bottle in a joking manner.





These are small examples. I don't know how to get sister to understand she needs help. Mother doesn't see there's a problem. I'm saddened sister isn't experiencing life.Need help / advice with immature sister.?
your sister seems to be haing an antisocial liestyle, its common in many syndromes, counselling is what i wud suggest since she is avoiding school, she also seems to be paranoid... she has fears... they must be deep rooted if she tends to be goerned by them, i would suggest u to take her to a psychiaterist A.S.A.P, she might hurt herself...Need help / advice with immature sister.?
Is like you are describing my younger sister....





Just have a one on one (or maybe have someone that she really listens to) on a restaurant or somewhere away non-threathen and ask her the magic question:





What she wants to do with her life





You will not get a good answer, but for sure will start the process....took 3 years after I started asking that question for my sister to start school....
hi


there is nothing wrong with her.She's just too darn pampered from her mother thats it and there is nothing you can do to change it because she always has the full support from her mom...So the solution of the problem would be to leave her the way she is......because the world will automatically teach her that her mom will not always be there to protect her.......and speaking about the younger sister,ask her to sleep over at her friend's place for a night to teach her elder sis a lesson..or just enjoy the vacation!!!
you should probably take her to a doctor like a mental health doctor or psychiatrist or something, and keep being nice to her and probly don't joke too much, cuz some people take it the wrong way and it could make her upset.
you could talk to your family about this, because they know her and could maybe help her.
I would have her checked out by the doc
well try telling here what you just described and try explaining that she does bad things and tell her to quit doing that..its not immaturity its ignorance
This isn't immaturity anymore, this may be something more serious. I think a doctor would like to hear more about this, particularly her relationships.





Good luck, and go to school, even if your late. %-)
