[quote=Anonymous]Would you rather she just not show up? How would you have liked her to handle this? Should have she agreed to come (if she knew she would back out?) No. But. Perhaps your dad and you don't take "no thanks" for an answer. Perhaps she didn't want to get into a fight after your dad just had surgery. Perhaps she doesn't like to be made to feel selfish for choosing holiday plans that aren't up to your standards. Or. Maybe something changed and her DH really wanted or needed this trip. Maybe tickets were already bought and couldn't be refunded. You jump to conclusions and label your sister but can't see the irony of how you and your dad are treating her. She is not an 8 year old your dad can force his wishes onto. I suspect that your parents have been guilt tripping you both into doing things they want you to for years. For you it is a way to please your parents and maybe you enjoy that. For your sister it likely feels suffocating, demeaning and controlling. [/quote]
