[quote=Anonymous]I have a young adult DD who is delightful in many, many ways. She works very hard, is very responsible, and usually treats others well. We've always given her positive feedback, and celebrated her successes. However, it has recently made me so sad to see how she treats her younger sibling. If younger sibling has an accomplishment, she will say "yippee" in a sarcastic way and then walk away. It's like she is looking for any opportunity to put in a dig. It's very negative and has affected my even wanting to be around her. What should I do? Should I address her rudeness on a case by case basis? Or should I take her aside and talk with her about it. She can get very defensive, so I want to tread carefully. I'm thinking maybe a light rejoinder of some kind would be good, but can't think of anything beyond, "how rude!" or "wow that's mean!" Any advice here? She's a great person otherwise, but this is wearing on me. [/quote]
