Why are my sisters such jerks?
im an only guy with 3 sisters and all 3 think they can rule the world. I have my own room(only guy) with my computer and equipment soley worked for and bought by me. I try to be nice as much as i can but they all think they can just walk into my room and mess around with my desktop and download crap and skype whoever they want to, and when i tell them to ask before using it they start yelling at me and saying how obnoxious im being for not letting them use it and go cry to my parents, and thus i get in trouble and i cant go to bed till midnight because "their busy with something" how do i stop them from being such jerks about stuff that i worked hard for and make them actually respect what i worked for?
The other issue is that we have 3 other computers that work perfectly fine but they still use mine.

I suggest you have a talk with your parents. Explain that you paid for the computer, and your sisters don't seem to respect that it's yours. Tell them that because your sisters have been unwilling to respect your simple requests, you will be putting a password on your computer. Your sisters won't like it, but there won't be anything for them to do about it. If your parents won't be reasonable, I suggest you lock the computer anyway or sell it.

Explore passwords and encryption to bar entry. Or call a family mtg to discuss it with parents. If parents participated in the purchase on the condition that you provide access you must come up with days and times they are allowed to use it. Strange that you alone rather than all of you equally would have access to such an essential tool for learning. How did that happen? I'm beginning to sniff a gender issue. Not based on some religious tenet, one hopes?

I agree with Camille. If you tell your parents that you need your sleep & they can't just come in & use YOUR stuff whenever they want, they should be understanding
