It's nice that you and your sibling never went for your worst insecurities. However, my sister? Did it on the regular.

My sister did too. And it was awful and she was awful and it took us becoming adults for our relationship to heal and us to actually have a relationship. And it was in no way funny or okay, and I feel like the books sometimes gloss over and dismiss things or minimize things that really aren't okay.

NAYRT

My sister and I did it to each other too.

My sister still has really low confidence about her academic abilities due to some things I've said to her during childhood, and the same for me and my athletic abilities. (My sister and I were polar opposites during childhood, she the 'jock' and I the 'geek' if I go by tropes)

When I was younger I had a really difficult time in school due to my disability and being teased by my peers.

My sister (she's lovely now) was embarrassed by me and once called me on "acting like a loser" and I physically attacked her. We both got a fair talking to about it. Eventually when we grew up she turned her annoyance from me(for embarrassing her) to my bullies for picking on me.

But yeah, things said by siblings can cut deep. and the worst part is when we're kids we never realize that because all we're thinking of is us. I never realized,either, how much my sister was hurt when I accused her of being a suck up the times she didn't take my side.

Now, IIRC during that argument Ron was telling Ginny to stop making out with her boyfriend in public because people would say she's a slut.

As much as I think Ginny's mocking was out of line, it was also incredibly awful and out of line for Ron to say 'don't be seen doing this because people will call you this" or whatever because he was in that stage where he was all weird about boys being with his sister.

If you're going to condemn Ginny as a "bitch" for saying things that were out of line to her sibling in public, you should judge Ron for doing the same thing, IMO.

I can def. relate to this. My brother and I (only after getting older and talking it's still a process even now) get along better.

But I was incredibly cruel to him when i was in middle school because I wanted to be cool (i as a nerd & funny looking in the time it wasn't cool to be smart) and I let people who i considered to be my friends bully him, and all I did was let them/join them. My mother addressed me on it (it was bad enough that even she noticed). I was very angry and cruel and petty at the time, and I honestly can't imagine the pain I put him through (it nearly makes me cry when I stop to think about it). He was a little kid. All he wanted to do was play. I was such a shit to him, I wasn't brave. I was such a coward. SO weak and evil.

So when middleschool/Hs came around, he was a shit to me (and I felt I deserved it).

Anyway, sorry for the confessional, but I needed to share that. We're better now, improving as time goes on, and we love each other, but it doesn't mean we can also stand each other.
