[quote=Anonymous]I assume there was dysfunction long before your dad died? My parents thought somehow my sister and I would magically bond and work together even though she has been manipulative and had trouble playing nicely with others since childhood. I explained to them early on they can do whatever they want with their assets, but if they plan to leave anything to us it's need to be in my name and not co-owned with her. I said I don't care if that means I get less or I get nothing, but I cannot collaborate with her. She is someone who sues just to get back at people. No thank you.

I have seen too many families go up in flames and inevitably people end up with serious health issues fighting it out. You said you are already wealthy. Is it worth it? The drama does me in and I accepted more went to my sister because I work and we are stable and I just don't have the energy for legal battles. My sister found all sorts of ways to manipulate money out of mommy. In the end she has to live with herself. I have a good marriage and great kids and I didn't want to become stressed and bitter and have them suffer.  If I were poor or struggling I might want to fight to the end, but we are in great shape to retire one day. In the end I want a peaceful life full of love and connection. Obviously my sister won't be part of that. She can roll around in money by herself. Just something to think about.

Also, if you do fight, yes absolutely bring a lawyer every time you meet.[/quote]
