[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not the sister here, but think my SiL thinks this about me occasionally. She grew up affluent - great family vacations, anything she wanted, full pay BA/MFA at top schools, etc. She and her DH are creatives and they didn't want to be encumbered by office work. She was then absolutely shocked when she learned that her parents were not going to pay for private K-12 for her kids. Then resentful when we were able to do so. And it pretty much started spiraling from there. I didn't grow up that way, grateful for what we have, and pretty generous with our finances. We live way below our income. Folks may call me a lot of things, but smug is not one. But she doesn't see any of that - only that I (not her sibling just me) seem to have "more" than her and it's simply not fair. [/quote] You are an unpleasant, unhappy, vindictive and competitive woman. [/quote] And how did you come up with that conclusion? My SiL talks trash about me to other relatives, some of DH's friends, and, on a few occasions, with our children. If there is something she has an opinion about regarding our family, then it always must be something I'm doing, not her sibling. As one of DH's friends said, "I always knew she was a little volatile, but she has now sealed that impression." [/quote]
