[quote=Anonymous]I started writing up a monologue with the back-story but it seemed like it go on forever so short take here: Sister has a tantrum and jumps down my (and parents’ throat) at any minor inconvenience. If I say something to defend/explain, our mother will shush me and make it clear I should not be standing up to my sister. (I will note that my sister has had substance-abuse issues while living with our parents for the past five years and IMO parents have enabled it). The conversation will eventually turn into “aren’t you glad your sister is doing so much better. . . “ How do I handle this dynamic? I don’t want to participate in enabling my sister, which I have made clear. I also don’t want to tolerate her abuse of me or our parents. Do I just stay away if I can’t shut up as mother is basically asking me to do. . . ? How would you handle? [/quote]
