This from nearly 40 years ago but I've never forgotten it - and never will ...
I was about 10 so my sister would have been 7. My mother was quite highly strung in these days and was an enthusiastic proponent of corporal punishment. Since we were not exactly a wealthy family we didn't get choccy biscuits very often. So on a rare occassion when we had some and they mysteriously vanished, my sister and I were lined up and questioned vigourously.
Now I KNOW it wasn't me who took them and I protested my innocence accordingly - but so did my sister.
After a bollocking that would have stripped the paint off a door my mother ordered both of us to strip naked with a view to the forthcoming leathering being even worse than normal. At that stage I stepped up to the mark and took the rap to spare my young sister the rod.

Bad enough but what hurt me even more than the beating was both my parents deriding me with, "What a coward ... imagine about to let your wee sister take a thrashing for your greed". Bastards - I don't know who had eaten the biscuits but I know it definitely wasn't me.

On the whole however I had a pretty reasonable childhood and don't hold much against my parents. That one though STILL rankles though because justice was never served. Poor me !

If I were you
I'd seethe with resentment for many years, cultivating it into a deep-seated psychological disorder, and then go on a killing spree.

Four possibilities
1) Your sister's a pervert, she stole the biscuits and got you the blame.
2) Your dad's a pervert, he ate the biscuits and watched your mum beat you up.
3) Your mum's a pervert, she ate the biscuits and beat you up in front of your dad and your sister.
4) You're a pervert, you didn't take the biscuits (or did) but you like to be thrashed in front of your dad and your sister.
Which is it? We need to know.
Nice u/n btw.

I hope your sister eventually apologised to you if she was the biscuit thief.

I used to do this...
My older sister would steal sweets out the cupboard and I would own up because my mum would threaten to phone the priest. The thought of the priest coming to our house to give us a telling off was enough to make me own up to anything...also I was an alter boy at the time... I have no idea if these are connected.
