i still carry my 15 year old sister
Is that OK? I think it brings us closer to gether but a lot of people have said she is too old.
this is me carrying her into the house at our family party a week ago.

Welcome to the board!
Aren't there other ways to be closer to your sis?
Doing each other's hair,
fingernail care,
a backrub?
You are both really cute, but I'm afraid one of you
will fall and get injured. That would be no fun at all.
So glad that you have a sis you love!

whatever u like to do then thats you decision...
i have an 18 yr old sister (im 23) and I would NEVER carry her anywhere! once again, my decieion tho (Not to mention shes twice the size of me!!)
I agree that i would be careful tho--one of you guys could really get hurt, esp you and your back!

IMO, it's weird & it kinda prevents her from growing up. she's 15, in 3 years she'll be an adult "officially".

I think that people would find it weird because at 15, a person is usually wanting to do things for themselves, and as they are capable of doing many things (like walking, cooking etc) they do them. Generally carrying people is associated with young children, eg under 10yrs old. I have to say that you do seem to be somewhat awkward in the picture. And you or your sister oculd get hurt at any time.
Is it not awkward to be carrying some one so large? By large I do not mean overweight, I just mean that she is bigger than a 4 year old; longer arms and legs. I agree with Angie, when she said there are other things that you could do together to keep close if this is becoming a big issue for you both. I hope you are comfortable with whatever you decide to do.
