I'm in this position and I would just ignore her. What people say or do doesn't have to be apart of our lives unless we allow it to especially if its bad. You could find the good qualities in her or talk about your feelings to her and see how things go. It's okay to not get along with family. I don't have much care for some family members of mine and I'm happy. Just as long as you focus on you and what you want in your life, you'll be fine.

Good question, one that I really needed to hear. I understand what it's like to have younger sisters that annoy the bajeeses out of you so I know how you feel. When I was 12 and one of my sisters was 8, we were at the beach and she stood in some deep water and got pulled out in a rip and had to hold onto a rock. I cried. A lot. Now, that's not to say that she doesn't annoy me anymore, but I realized then how I would truly feel if something happened to her. Despite the fact that I may say that I want to murder her, or welcome the chance to be away from her, if she was taken away from me, I would definitely not be glad about it. so, maybe just think about all the good memories you share with her, and the small think about her that make you smile. We don't realise how much we love something until it's gone. To finish of, I was once told a list of facts about life. One of them was: No matter how much you love or hate your siblings now, you will love them even more when you don't live with them.

Try to interact with her and spend more time with her. Spending time will not only make her feel better, but it will also make you feel better and happier spending time with her.

Your little sister may seem annoying but when it comes down to it, she's one of the people who knows you the best. Thinking about the good times and how much better your life is with her can make it so much easier to deal with her. Though they can be bratty, they care for you and love you and make sure that you're not alone, no matter how much they annoy you.

Sibling rivalry is a normal thing. Try distancing yourself from her for a bit as you try to understand why you hate her.

There was a period of time when I hated my little sister to the point where if I saw another little girl, I experienced feelings of annoyance. I disliked how loud her voice was, how she constantly hung on me and stole my things and refused to cooperate. The most important thing to do when it comes to stopping those negative feelings is to focus on the positive characteristics of your sister. My sister would do anything for me, and that helps me to ignore my annoyance at her constant need for attention. I focus on the way she smiles, rather than the way she stubbornly refuses to listen to me, even when it's for her own good. The best way to stop hating your little sister is to accept her. Set boundaries, solid boundaries, but accept that your sister isn't going to change all that much.

I don't know what your relationship is like with your sister (and how often you two communicate with each other), why you may hate her, or who she is as a person, but I would first suggest trying to understand where she is personally coming from, what her feelings are, and what she is interested in. Doing this may allow you to understand her perspective and relate to her on a more personal level, so that you are both on the same page. It's important that, in a sibling relationship, you are able to empathize with each other's feelings as hard as it may be sometimes. Remember, she is also a human being who probably also craves love/support just as much as you do.

To stop hating your little sister, you should try bonding with her, and taking up hobbies you can both enjoy together, the bond of a brother or sister is irreplaceable and stronger than any other :)

It depends on if you actually hate her or if she just annoys you. Be patient, she'll grow up. Tell her to stop annoying you without being mean.
