[quote=Anonymous]She's still young, and her behavior sounds normal albeit a bit bratty. It sounds like you are enabling her with the car and vacation. My much younger sister is a lot like this with the talk about herself and not asking or showing interest about my life - it might be age, it might be life stage, it might just be her personality. I find other outlets for my own emotional needs (DH, friends, therapist) and accept that the relationship isn't going to be a two way street, so I only give what I can with that knowledge. But I keep engaging when I have the energy because the relationship is important to me. So when I'm exhausted or have my own needs, I don't answer the phone. When I do pick up the phone, I just focus on her and let it be.[/quote]
