[quote=Anonymous] I'm into attachment parenting, OP, although because I have ADHD and know my limits, I only had two kids 5 years apart, and I always knew to relax rules when everyone was too tired. My oldest is now in high school, and I feel what we did worked for us. But the key to success is to adapt and not be rigid! Your sister sounds actuated by anxiety and rigidity, and I wonder whether she's always been like this, but now you're noticing it more. It sounds like some form of OCD, really. If she's hyper defensive, she must know deep down that this is not working well, but she can't help herself. Perhaps, once they're out of your house, a gentle conversation about compulsive behavior might help her steer her to the right expert. [/quote]
