Kinda a dumb question...
Is it okay to ask questions about your life on the forums? i.e. Someone asks a question about how to handle a younger sibling.
Or something like that.

For stuff like that, you should get help in person. Scratch really isn't the place to get help for stuff like that. Instead, you should talk to a trusted adult to get advice.

If you do that though, sometimes it won't help. Sometimes you'll need someone around your age to help you, and you might not want to talk to your friends about it(Because you know their opinion will be negative.) You might want more than just one person to help you also.

Well, their example is more of an issue for people with brothers and sisters I guess. It's not too personal as many people have younger siblings.

But it doesn't fit in the forums...

Yes. that is true, but you didn't mention that at all. 
Also, they could make a project about it.

No, the forums were not designed for help with real life, and we discourage force-fitting topics of that nature around here.
One of the problems with asking for help over the internet in general is that it's hard to trust that we answers we get are accurate or relevant to our situation. We encourage users to get help from a trusted person in real life (such as a parent, teacher, friend, or counselor) instead.
