[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You really need to be direct about it, [b]since it appears that she can unbend to other people. [/b]She's the type to bulldoze over the weaker members of the family. "Mom, you seem to have no problem giving Sister's family whatever they want. Why don't you extend the same courtesy to my family? I already gave you our list. Either you buy whatever you like on that list, or you buy whatever you like outside of that list, but then don't pretend to ask my advice. Now, what would YOU like for Christmas?" [/quote] I am well aware that I should talk to her - this has been a life long issue. I'm the older sister child and have always had more attention/pressure from her then my sister. This can be good and it can be bad - my sister and I have discussed it at length many times as we are treated so differently. But I really don't think it is a matter of weakness - I have tried to talk to her about similar issues and she really doesn't "get it."[/quote]
