[quote=Anonymous]My SIL is one of those people.  I, personally, do not speak up for myself as often as I should, and yes, it is a personal fault, I believe.

I babysat for my SIL for about a year, and she would get off work at 4, but not arrive to get her child until 9 or sometimes, 10.  She was DEFINITELY involved in extra marital activities.

I eventually stopped bathing her son at night.  He was 3 at the time, and I told him Mommy would take care of it later.  I would, of course, feed him if he were hungry.  I got pregnant with my 3rd, which is what led to my decision to to "cut her off" and stop babysitting.

Now, she asks me to do NOTHING.  NOTHING AT ALL.  It is sort of sad, but she knows that I have completely separated myself.  She's an "all or nothing" type of person.  If she can't take advantage of me, she'd rather not deal with me at all.  and that's just fine.  Now, she takes advantage of her mother on a regular basis..... and guess what?  She does it because her mother lets her... just like I let her do the same to me.

Your "sweet" sister is also a very inconsiderate one.  Bottom line: either stop being a doormat or let her keep stepping on you.

Sad, but true. [/quote]
