Parents always in a bad mood :l

So even though my sister is 10 already, she still has tantrums. All the time... It has something to do with her brain. Right now she's screaming and yelling about how she can't find a pencil sharpener to do her homework. I can live with these outbursts, but they always put my parents in a shitty mood. They get mad at me for things they never would, and even things they do themselves, like staying on the computer too long or forgetting to do the laundry. It gets really exhausting and it's really rare to find them in a good mood anymore. I feel like just blocking them out, but that's not going to do good for any of us. What should I do??

next time there taking it out on you just yell them that just because you're little sister is stressing them out it doesn't mean they can take it out on you or if not just ignore them

I can try that, but they might end up taking my laptop. There would be no point to life without the internet :c Jk, but it would really suck. I might try talking to them when they're in a better mood though...

I think you should just smile whenever you see them, smiling at someone can actually help a lot when someone isn't in a good mod, and it can spread onto them. Maybe try to help them out with your sister to try and defuse the situation before your parents have to get involved. Being a parent can be a very stressful job especially with a child who has tantrums as you say she does.

You should talk to your parents about finding some counselling for your sister.

My mom is in a bad mood most of the time too, but it isn't because of my sister, my sister handles PMS'y moods herself and the stepsister is naturally calm, its normally cuz of finances or fights. But now, she is in a really good mood, although a little upset that I only woke up half past four in the afternoon.
