[quote=Anonymous]I would tell your parents that you and your sister are adults and will work your relationship out between yourselves.  Your parents are still stuck in that parent role where they feel like they have to intervene.  Tell them their job is done and its not their place any more.  Also tell them that you are happy to have family functions and holidays all together (they could be worried about that) and then tell them you don't want to talk about it anymore.  Tell them its unfair on your sister to be talking about her behind her back and that any business between the two of you needs to be handled between the two of you only not with the whole family.  Then after that shut down any conversation regarding your sister and the problems you have.

You sound like you have worked out how much contact you want with your sister and that is all the matters.

This won't be a problem with your parents if you refuse to discuss it with them and ultimately it is not their business.  It will lead to further problems if you discuss your sister in this manner behind her back.  If it gets back to her you may find there will be bigger problems.[/quote]
