I went through something like that...It will pass.

She could be a little bit depressed. I think you're being a bit harsh on her; she obviously is being raised by her grandmother and not her parents and on top of this her hormones are leaping about crazily inside her. I went through a depressed stage a couple of years back because of my dad being dead (died when I was 4) and I can't even remember him yet I was depressed?? I didn't talk to anyone for a couple of months and was constantly on edge and wanting to punch somenthing (mostly I hit myself on the thighs but noone knew this). She could be finding life really hard right now. I agree that her behaviour is pretty shitty but there may be an underlying reason or there may not and she is just a brat but I think someone should find out..

Hope I helped

Actually she's being raised by her dad and grandmother. I don't think I'm being harsh about things. I just wish she would respect people and lose the attitude.

Don take this the wrong way but your cousin is the kind that I used to beat to peices when I was that age. I had nothing but hand me downs and I got teased a lot for what I wore. I was happy to get a new pair of jeans and socks for christmas and my favorite cake on my birthday. My sister is her age too and that girl may be spoiled but she appreciates everything that she gets because she knows what it's like to not have a damn thing too. Your cousin should have everything taken away and be forced to earn it all back. Let her know that things are not always given.

I think so too. If the video games, Ipod, etc. were taken away when she acted this way maybe things would start to change.

I'm sorry but that is disguusting and if it were me I would have taken the clothes back and told her if she couldn't be respectful then stiff shit she couldn't have them... I'm pretty upfront bout that sorta thing tho
