[quote=Anonymous]My friends all had kids before I did. I remember visiting my dear friend and her saying that after her toddler went to bed we were going to be completely quiet for at least an hour. I remember being really offended the first night. I just wanted to chat and catch up! By the 3rd night I was looking forward to that hour by lunchtime. By the time I had my own kids, I looked back on that visit and would laugh. That age is so all-consuming. Infants can be plopped down anywhere and you can talk over their heads for hours. But toddlers can move of their own volition and talk and have to eat real food and have schedules! Your sister is probably at the very very worst time for interacting with other adults. Give her another 18 months or so and try to forgive her. I know it sucks and it’s isolating for you but trust me, it sucks to be her, too.[/quote]
