[quote=Anonymous]Your kids aren't confused about the age difference. They may be asking a few questions, but if you were a respectful sister you would tell them that you don't get to pick who you fall in love with...and your kids will move on. However, you're the one with the hang-up and your response and judgements will affect the way your kids view their aunt. As for the invitation, it sounds like she'd like to see you and spend time with you. A good sibling would try to accept, even if it means leaving the kids at home. Also, if she gets defensive when talking about alcohol and other issues, it could be the way you are delivering your message. Don't put her on the defensive. Pick the right time to talk about it. Be sincere. Be caring. Use your words and tone carefully. Hopefully, if you use this approach you can have a constructive conversation.[/quote]
