I'm a "twitter nobody" these streets wouldn't wanna reply to. That doesn't bother me but this time I really need other people's opinion. Everyone of us, at some point run out of ideas and it's at that point we come out looking for help. I'm at that point. Thread.
I'm what you call a "secondary parent". I've  two young sisters and we have a single mother whom I help out "head" the home here and there. When she gives an order and my sisters decide to disobey, I chip in to reinforce the order and so on.
My sisters are so disrespectful arrgg😠. To make matters worse, our mother is that soft kind of mother. They'd disrespect, yell at her and all that, with no remorse. I hate seeing our mother being treated like that. It upsets me to my core. But as a  loving mother she is..
..she forgives them right there and then. When the situation is calm, she sits them down talking to them in a motherly way. Blink and they are at it again.
I'm our mother's opposite. I'm don't give a what-what. When they misbehave, I usually give them warnings with that angry tone before making them feel my wrath.
As a secondary parent, I sit them down first, promising them a beating if they disobey. Like always, they'll behave for a few day then boom. They are doing it again.
I usually beat them when they exceed 3 warnings. I don't count the warnings when they exceed, I noticed when it almost became a trend.
Of course, as a result of me beating them. My sisters and I stop talking. We are so proud we could stay months without talking. It hurts you know. They are my blood.
Right now. There's this covid-19 pandemic. Governments all over the world have restricted movements. They've made it clear NOT to make unnecessary movements to curb the spread of the virus. Why? Cause it doesn't move, people move it.
Over the long weekend. It was one of my sister's birthday and without warning, she left the house and went to "mingle" with her friends. She took our other sister with her. When they came back, I was furious.( My approach of beating them when the disobey
is definitely phasing out of me. I want to change and become a better brother to them.) They came in tipsy. I got handwash, a bucket of water and gave them to wash their hands because I didn't know where they went or what they touched.
I explained the dangers of moving about aimlessly and how they were putting the rest of us back home at risk. For a moment they seemed to have listened to my advice. The following day, the birthday girl left the house, again. When
She came back, I didn't say anything to her. I let it slide. Two days later, the other decides to leave for town to buy hair. She left around 9am only to come back around 4pm. Just buying hair?
These are ladies who would decide to sleep the whole day in their room and leave all the chores for our mother to do. On her own! ! I thank GOD our mother is super strong. Besides having having me to help her here and there,  she's very strong and hard working.
They are very young. One is a teen and the other just turned 21.
I'm tired of beating my sisters when they misbehave or disobey. It's like they do things to taunt me so that I can beat them up. But all this is dividing our small family and it's hurting me.
I've tried my mother's approach, my late father's approach including approach which by the way has got so many different versions, but no. They seem to be in their own world.
I don't like the fact that for one person to see that you're trying to protect them has to be beaten. I don't want to see my family divided.
Twitter streets!! Advise me on how I can deal with my two sister without physically beating them. I love them and my family.
I don't want our mother to think that her children can't live together or love each other. I know it hurts her. I want want to mend my family and make my sisters happy and proud they have a big brother.
