Are you his mother?

This to the degree I wonder if this is a genuine post.

I guess I overreacted. I just get so tired of how unappreciated my brother is by his wife.

Again, MYOB. Your brother needs to get on his big boy pants. He can speak for himself, and it sounds like he should do so, to you. Butt out.

I'm just protective of my brother. She is going to have to get used to it.

I dare you to confront her if you're so bold.

I did confront her.

As long as he's fucking her and not you, you're opinion will never carry as much weight. And, like the PP said, unless his mouth has swelled shut AND his hands have swelled to the point he can't write or type, you need to STFU and MYOB.

What happens if he is exposed to a pine tree?

NO, YOU are going to have to get used to it that you don't get to "protect" him, he is a married grown man. And what will happen when forced to pick sides between YOU and his WIFE is that he will pick his WIFE over you,and you will never hear from him again.

+1. Your brother has a say in his own marriage. If she has been lobbying for a few years and he finally said "Okay, I'll get some Claritin and we'll give it a try. We can always get rid of it if it becomes a problem." that's really between them. If you don't live in the house, you need to take a step back, tiger sister. You brother got married. That makes him an adult capable of standing up for himself and also compromising for himself with his wife over what they do in their own home.

The most you can do is call your brother and say that you saw a photo of their Christmas tree and were concerned about his allergies. You can lobby him to speak up about the issue. If he hears your concerns and, for whatever reason, opts not to say something to her, then you are out of this conversation entirely.

A couple I know has three cats. The husband is allergic but he knows his wife loves cats. So he takes allergy medicine. Married people make compromises all the time. MYOB

+1. I love my SIL but I can tell you that DH would tell her where to shove her opinion if she ever tried confronting me with any of the kind of attitude OP is showing here. "She is going to have to get used to it"?! HA, nice try girl!

I haven't read those since junior high. Lol

It is possible that she is trying to kill him with pine needles. I have seen it many, many times. Call S.W.A.T. and take'r down now.

Just out of curiosity, are you this protective of your brother with everyone, or only with women he is romantically involved with?

Don't interfere in his marriage. Not your place to say anything at all.

If, a few years down the road, you are sitting alone wondering why you don't have a relationship with your brother or his family, please know that this attitude is why. Distilled in a simple, short sentence, a combative one liner giving a terrible view into your attitude towards family.

No, she doesn't have to get used to it. She really, really does not.
