[quote=Anonymous]Is this a thing? I notice it among my inlaws. DH is 63, his sisters are 50 and 56. Everything seems to be a competition. If one sibling does or has something worth telling the others then another sibling wants to do or have something similar, but more or better. They post pictures of whatever 'it' is on the family group chat. There also seems to be this constant competition about who does what and how much, or how often, for their elderly mother who is a widow. The bigger the better. My SILs especially seem to be very competitive, especially around gaining their mother's approval. DH not so much, he thinks one of his sisters is too competitive and he tends to stay out of it, or reply with a fairly neutral response on the family group chat. I am surprised this is still happening at their age. I'm an only child so I never had to compete with anyone. [/quote]
