[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My sister cut off my two brothers after my mother died.  It has destroyed my entire family.  Think long and hard about the repercussions beyond yourself.[/quote]

That sounds very one sided. She cut them off for no reason? Just for kicks? Or were there reasons she outlined, but perhaps for reasons that don't meet your approval?

[/quote] I love my sister and I know he believed she had reason--believe me I she told me every tiny detail.  I was a witness to it all and have stuck with my sister all of these years and the cost of my brothers.   I know why she did what she did but she let grief, unresolved childhood jealousies, and anger overtake common sense. Everyone lives in different states and rarely saw each other even before the formal drama.  She blew up the entire family, destroyed relationships among siblings resulting in nieces and nephews losing aunts and uncles, etc.  It was an unnecessary act that could have easily been avoided.  Ten years later she is still as pissed and nasty and is losing one of her children to the conflict.  There are more adult ways to handle things.  [/quote]

We are in the exact situation.  Sick father and one sibling being manipulative, nasty and generally toxic to the entire family though directly mostly at one sibling due to jealousy and unresolved childhood issues. I personally think she actually has a mental issue. Sadly it has isolated her and she is living a pretty lonely life which will only get lonelier once our father dies.

The good news is that we all recognize the role that our parents played in creating the monster that she is and have hopefully will avoid it with our own children. [/quote]
