[quote=Anonymous]The bottom line, OP, is do you want a relationship with your sister and nieces/nephews? Because if so, you need to stop. Accept the family how they are. Be supportive, not judgmental. You seem to be hurt that your sister broke your “pact.” But it is done at this point. Maybe he will relapse. Maybe he won’t. Maybe they will have an idyllic family life. Maybe they won’t. But they are married with kids and nothing you do or say at this point is going to change him or their lives. The only person you are in control of is yourself and you get to decide what kind of sister/aunt you will be. I personally would choose to be an involved, kind, supportive sister/aunt but maybe you will decide differently due to your trauma, and that’s really ok. But it isn’t fair to think that because your sister made this choice, she must deal with the consequence of your judgment/withdrawal. [/quote]
