[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The post is long, but I think I get the gist. Are you the oldest sister? It kind of reads as if you are. Also, are your parents incapacitated to the point the POA has been activated? If not, it sounds, honestly, like you're taking charge prematurely. As one who was not named POA, that can extremely frustrating. When one sister is named POA and other isn't, there is bound to be tension, and rightly so, it's a recipe for disaster every time. You should try to be more understanding. [/quote]

OP here, yes, POAs we’re activated and I’m not the oldest. I do think jealousy is at play. I have “taken charge” only as mom requested, since she can no longer handle financial paperwork. I was really unprepared for the tension and unaware of how that would be “a recipe for disaster every time”.

The reason I posted here is because my question is really about trying to understand the interpersonal dynamics of why someone cannot communicate directly. Even when I thought we were, I have been made aware of things she has done intentionally behind my back. She doesn’t like conflict, but I can’t imagine that is the only motive. [/quote]
