[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your dad is sharp and of good mind, he can put them in his place if he wants to. Sounds like she is helping to make sure the "shabby" house is maintained and offering advice on updates to increase value/function.   Why does she have to tell you she's going down there?  There's no reason an adult needs to check in with another adult about visiting a house that doesn't belong to them.

Your father's will is the last word on the estate.  You sound jealous.  [/quote]

It's sneaky. We have group chats going back 10 plus years of sharing when we're all coming and going and visiting mom and dad.[/quote]

But now you have your own beach house and your brother is far away-- no need to coordinate. Your father seems happy to have her around. I mean no one told you to buy a house nearby. You decided to and now regret it?  [b]Seems weird that you wouldn't give your input on the house projects like your sister. Why is that?[/b] [/quote]

It's my dad's house, it's his money, he has a sharp mind. Where would I get off telling him how to renovate his house? Where does [b]my unemployed sister and her frankly dipsh*t husband[/b] get off bossing or guilt-tripping my dad around to fix or renovate things how they want? They aren't paying for it.[/quote]

You keep doubling down on how much disdain you have for your sister.  Do you think maybe that disdain is influencing how you perceive/interpret what is happening?

If your father is so sharp, he can handle the input they are giving him.  Are you trying to manage your sister's relationship with your dad?  Why?[/quote]
