Mean Older Sister

Sean had an odd dislike of our pet lizards the first time we got them. He insulted them and I got fed up with it. I punched him in the arm, hard, and then sat the lizard on top of his head. He froze, skin turning pale and eyes bulging, he looked like some sort of mutated chameleon. I loved the hysterical look on his face.

Do I regret what I did? No. I don't. But I do feel a bit sorry for him now. But he got over the incident and his dislike for my dragons. He actually thinks it was funny that he reacted that way.

People are mean to others because it makes them feel better. Others do it cause it makes them feel powerful and in control. For me it was an emotion that I didn't control very well. But it worked out okay.
