An older sibling can take custody of younger sibling in South Carolina by applying for it if the current person taking care of them is abusing them or he/she is on drugs.
I think 14..but im not sure so its not garenteed! I think 14 too But I would be 15 to take care of my younger sibling if I were in Florida. Check the law book!
yes you can but you have to 18 or prove to the judge that you can take of yourself and your siblings
fifteen years, because by that time he or she will have know how to take care of him/her self and the younger siblings.
it depends how trustworthy both children are but i would say about 14-15
you should be at least 13 but you must be trustworthy and you must be checked on from time to time
YES! If the adult sibling doesn't, the person can be seen as heartless by others, and they should be mentally evaluated -- they may have a mental disorder.
pros: learn from older sibling -we have a guiding light and an example. We learn from their mistakes. take part in raising of younger sibling -having to help take care of a younger sibling gives us a sense of purpose. cons: middle child syndrome blamed for everything yet ignored most of the time feelings of loneliness low self-esteem lack of motivation depression later on fewer photos of self on the fridge :(
Most likely the younger sibling. But don't go blaming them yet. Take in each story of the sibling or maybe a wittness of the fight. It will help you decide which one is the trouble maker. But the children are each going to start a fight no matter what. If you want to punish them make all of them get it so its fair.
Strengthen sibling bonds--they would have closer relationship, get to know each other better greater sense of reponsibility--take care of themselves
Well if she is older that's probaly why because she feels that you are younger that she needs to take control but if she is younger she might just want to be like her big sissy:D
The age to babysit is not legislated. In general, a 13 year old is considered old enough to take care of a younger sibling, not necessarily an infant.
