Is it normal for older kids to push me around and tell me what to do and make me do stuff for them?

It is fairly common but not always right depending on the situation. Ask yourself if doing their request has value to you, will you learn something from it for example? If so then why not do it and gain the experience? If they are just being a bully then it is never right and you should talk to someone close to you about it.

No, Don't let People handle you that way, even if your younger. You are still the same worth as they and everyone else is and are.

No. Stand your ground and do not let others bully you around into doing things for them. You are not a slave. You are not a butler/maid/servant. You do not work for them for a pay check or for favors. Stand your ground, this is the best thing you can learn in life on the road to success in your pursuits.

Of course not, every one is on the same level, no matter what age. To achieve serenity we must show respect to elders and those in the younger years. No one should be treated differently based on ages.

Yes. It's normal for siblings especially from what I know. Normal doesn't mean okay though. Being violent or mean and using them just because someone might be younger is wrong, and though it may be normal, it shouldn't be put aside.

Yes- I think that it's normal if you are getting paid by them. If you don't think it's normal you can speak up.

No, it's not normal. You can try talking to someone who you know that can help you with that, those kids have no right to do that to you.

Normal is a tricky word. Does it happen often? Yes. Should it? Probably not. Most children who are younger tend to watch their parents, teachers, and other caregivers who give rules to them. Since it's no surprise that what we do is mirrored by children, they will tend to create a leadership role, which can result in bossiness.

No it is the opposite of normal. It is in fact bullying and abuse and if you can find an adult be it a teacher, guardian or parent that you can talk to about whats happening then please do so. You do NOT have to do anything you don't wish to do. You are your own person, unique beautiful and equal to everyone else older/younger etc. whether you feel you are or not. Reach out for help its there ready and waiting.
