I hope you understand my english answer. If I understand correctly you are asking if according to Sikhism, children are punished for their parent's wrong deeds, and if someone's older brother or sister did something wrong, if the punishment for that goes to the younger brother/sister. The answer to that would be no. ਆਪੇ ਬੀਜਿ ਆਪੇ ਹੀ ਖਾਹੁ ॥ "You shall harvest what you plant." Bad deeds come back to you through karma, but only your own deeds. If the parent did something bad, only they will experience the results of their actions through karma. Their bad actions can be forgiven by God if they ask for forgiveness with a pure heart and do simran to remember God.

Actually it's the reverse. Children can help clear the karmas of the parents. The benti of the child's simran and japa affects 7 generations forwards and backwards.

Parent's karma does not directly become the children's karma, but patterns of destructive behaviour learned from parents when young can cause the child to imitate those behaviours thereby incurring new karmas for themselves.

This is not a Punjabi website. You should have asked the question in English language or if unable to write in English, could have taken the help of any person knowing English well because sizable number of visitors to this site are non-Punjabis.
