[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a mentally ill sister. I never have a good time with her. I never spend a holiday with her. If your brother is OK most of the time and you enjoy him then invite him, but don't expect anything of him. Don't expect him to come down to watch kids open presents. If he scares you and the kids, do not invite him. Your parents can decide if they want to come alone or stay with brother, probably they will stay with brother. The trick is how to you entertain your parents without your brother. Maybe at non-holiday times, invite just the parents. [/quote] Excellent advice. I also have a mentally ill sister. Fortunately, she has not done anything violent but she has cussed out my mother. [/quote]
