My sister overshares on Facebook and it's driving me nuts

I have a full life and a career; she sits home all day and pretends to live a different life on social media. The things she brags about are so low. I've tried to teach her what is impressive and what's not; what's tacky and what's not; what's annoying and what's relevant. But at the end of the day the thirst for likes wins out.

Okay, now you're starting to sound like...well...an asshole.

Why do you care so much? She doesn't. So what is the big deal? You really need to butt out. You sound kind of desperate. Just because something is tacky and irrelevant to you, doesn't make it so for the rest of the world. You do you. She can do what she wants.

Your an asshat

So she posts positive and vaguely self-congratulatory trivia about her life?

You do realize this is literally 95% percent of the posts on FB. (And I mean "literally" in the correct sense, not the colloquial sense.) Even if you were linked to this innocuous self-promotion (which you are not), how exactly would this hurt you? I mean what are you afraid exactly? People saying: "Oooooo, Larla, I saw your sister post about how nice her son is! Soooo embarrassing"

Remember, she's not you. Other people will judge her. If they judge you, that's their problem, not yours. You can't control her.

Nobody cares to know what place your 9yearold daughter placed at weekend "tournaments" you paid $50 to enter or see 10 pics of 9yearold girls in swim gear next to a pool every single weekend. Once in a great while is fine.

The posts with her son just make me roll my eyes - but when people make comments like, "OMG he's going to be so successful" and "He is so charming" it is cringeworthy. It's not an accurate reflection of him at all.

It's mostly desperate and attention-seeking- or as my daughter would say "thirsty." Tacky and teases out she has no life.

OP -- you sound like a sister I would never want to have. Heck, you sound like a person I would hope to never want to know. Leave your sister alone! You don't have to read the comments or look at her post if it irks you.
