Leslie in Wilmington, North Carolina says her baby sister has “always been pretty intense.” To wit: while going through some old papers recently, she dug up this card, which her then-10-year-old sister sent to Leslie’s boyfriend at the time.
(I’d like to think that beneath that thin layer of Liquid Paper lies an even more specific accusation, but baby sis’ decided that a more veiled threat would be the best way to scare Jon straight.)

I wish my younger brothers had done this for my boyfriends.

Am I reading that right? This was written by a ten year-old?
Oy vey!

My son is a total peacelover, but recently when someone messed with the sister he’s always battling, he and the oldest wanted to go “take care of it.” When I pointed out that he’s a peacemaker, he looked at me totally seriously and said “if I kick the crap outta him, it’ll keep the peace.” Apparently it doesn’t matter how you do or don’t get along with a sister — no one else is allowed to mess with them.

I totally misunderstood the introduction and thought that Jon was the baby sister’s boyfriend, and that the older sister (Leslie) also happened to like him and so Kendra(?) was setting him straight. Don’t you fool around on me kid, especially with my sister, or else. Then again, I have a hard time understanding most things.

When a ten year-old girl threatens you with an “…or else”, it’s time to make sure you’re never alone in the same room again.
It’s far too easy for a kid to accuse someone of inappropriate touching these days, but then, a couple of years without work and bills could be refreshing.

Heh.
According to my best friend in highschool, I once said pretty much the same to one of her short-term boyfriends (he was in his mid-twenties and I didn’t believe his intentions to be honourable). I can’t remember it, but then my memory is pretty bad.
But from a ten-year-old? Wow.

My spouse and I went out to dinner with my little sister and her (now) husband. This was one of the first times we’d met him. At one point he and I were briefly alone together at the table. I smiled my most winning and social smile and calmly and slowly stated, “By the way I think it is only fair that I let you know that if you ever make my sister unhappy, ” (pause as I made direct steely eye contact with him), “I will have you killed.”
He sort of laughed nervously then noticed that I was no longer smiling, and had not broken gaze. He got pale and about then my sister and my spouse returned to the table. He was quite nervous the rest of the evening and I am told that on the drive back to their hotel he told my sister what I had said to him. Her reply? “Heh – yeah, she will too. Seriously.”
He has been remarkably polite when I am in earshot ever since, and seems to avoid me rather carefully.
And yes. I will.

Ah memories…When my oldest girl brought home her first serious boyfriend, my oldest son brought out his knife collection and began to sharpen each and every blade, all the while he had a lovely civil chat with the intended. Dad was helping him check the edge on each blade as he finished…This guy lasted almost 3 years..*sniffle* Good times, good times…

This card is from a child…
This card isn’t passive-aggressive enough for me because…
This isn’t worthy of my expectations of this site because…
Just thought I’d get that BS out of the way before some other numb-nuts felt the need to vent.

My sister is twelve years older than I am. I remember sitting on the stairs when I was about four and she was in the living room with her boyfriend. Every ten minutes or so I would say in my outdoor voice, “I don’t hear any talking!” Mom paid me a quarter every time I said it.

Does this threat extend to “doin’ the mess around”? Because everybody does the mess around.

Is anybody else interpreting this as a ten-year-old’s fantasy crush on her older sister’s boyfriend? Something like, “I noticed that lately you’ve been spending alot of time with Leslie. In fact, she likes you, and if you think you’re gonna tap that ass before you’ve tapped mine, you’ve got another thing coming. I mean it!!

Forgive me. It was my first “fucking delicious” and I quickly became drunk with power. And that power was fucking delicious.
