[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you don't have to "get it". Stop wasting energy trying to figure this out. Treat your sister as you would an annoying neighbor. She's someone who will be around, mixing with other people along with you. That's all you investing you need to make, at this point.[/quote]

This.  My golden child sister always had something negative to say about my kids.  I never went back at her then because she always escalated and then everyone was uncomfortable.  Well now our kids are grown and so have I.  If she comes at my kids, I let her have it back.  Her kids, the golden grandchildren, have been much less successful so far than my kids, and I hate it for them.  But when everything is handed to you, it’s what is to be expected.  I’ve really let my sister know how hurtful she’s been, but she’s still a nosy know-it-all.  Without our parents to coddle her, she’s learned the hard way not to be so judgmental.  I no longer hold back and my kids can’t stand her.  I only see her once a year, if at all anymore.  My kids and their families never see her.  I’m over her.  Do yourself and your child a favor.  Either say something or stop being around her with your child and let her know why.  I regret the decades I relented to my sister.[/quote]
