[quote=Anonymous]I have 3 sisters and a brother. 
I get along well with all of them. 
Two of my sisters live close by each other and are very codependent and for some reason that is very triggering to me. 
One is married with 2 kids, We will call her. Ann . And the other is married with no children. We will call her Belle.

Belle and her husband are constantly helping out Ann with the kids. Ann's husband is very much involved with the kuds but because Belle is so involved really is taking a back seat on a lot of parenting things. Example Belle and her husband will take the kids all day Saturday so Ann can get laundry done. Her husband plays video games and goes to the gym. 
 
Ann always guilt trips belle into helping out and will call daily asking for help about something. Ann is very functional and has a well-paying job so does her husband. 
It's very triggering for me to see this dynamic of Ann taking advantage of Belle and Belle enabling the behavior. 
We were supposed to meet up with Belle aer husband at a brewery last weekend about an hour drive from both of our houses. They bailed the last minute because Ann needed help with the kids at a mutual friends party.

Or other siblings have noticed this as well but don't see this triggered by it as I am. It's getting to the point where I hate talking to either of them because to me this behavior is so toxic and is driving a wedge between Ann and her husband which only causes belle to help out more[/quote]
