[quote=Anonymous]I have two ages 4 and 2 . My sister has major depressive disorder. When she's doing well she's a great aunt , engaged fun and my kids love her. When she's not doing well she checks out of everything and my 4vear old is starting to notice this. Asking why she doesn't visit or call or come play. I've said that auntie doesn't feel well and is resting. But this feels like not enough. I don't want to overwhelm him with information. I also don't want him to think that auntie doesn't love him. I'm also not going to cut my sister off as has been suggested to me. [/quote]
