For a brother or sister to be negative, it doesn't happen over night. It's not as if they set their mind to be negative. The label is a result of reacting to abuse. How many times is someone going to be bullied, before they react?
Here's my historical analogy for the day, when British colonists began arriving in North America in the 17th century, there was no indication of the colonists becoming "
negative" towards the British crown. Rather there was roughly 140-150 years of the colonists being "
positive" before the colonists began "
reacting" against the British government for their abuses of the colonies.
