[quote=Anonymous]I don't think there's really anything you can do to get your sister to connect the dots between her lack of effort and its natural consequences. This isn't specific to her being an aunt . . . she has this issue in her whole life. It's unlikely to change without therapy and serious motivation on her part. You've tried giving her tips, you've tried scheduling the aunts separately . . . I really think now you just do whatever you can to minimize the annoyance to yourself and your kids. Invite her to a family movie where she can get credit for doing something fun with the kids and all she has to do is sit on her butt. Go to the zoo, etc. I think activities out of the house where it's really hard to be on your phone would best suit her . . . strengths.[/quote]
