[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you to the helpful posters. I do have kids (a bit older than hers) so I’ve been through the same stages. I love her to pieces and she loves me to pieces and we talk very openly and vent. It frustrates me that the things she complains about are so easily solvable! Especially since she’s so smart and talented at work. I did not realize it could be ADHD. Now the question is, should I bring it up or let it go…[/quote] OP, please be thankful that this issue is the worst of what you have to deal with when it comes to a sibling. Here's what I recommend: the next time she starts venting, ask her, "do you want me to help you come up with solutions, or do you just need to vent?" and then follow her lead. Treat her like an adult and act like one yourself. Jumping in to fix the problems of an independent, competent adult, which your sister is, screams poor boundaries.[/quote]
