[quote=Anonymous]OP I am sorry you are getting such extreme responses from people. It is a boundary issue. She obviously does not know you that well, even if she is family and she is making assumptions. Sending a card when your dad passes is what would be appropriate. Otherwise she is making assumptions and I do think it's about her own needs. Someone suggested a thank you note. I would not reinforce it that way because she will just keeping doing this. I would be polite, but very distant. If keeps trying to send bible verses just ignore it. You don't do things like that unless you know the person well enough to know they would appreciate it. Even immediate family sometimes don't know their own clan. I was shocked at how little my husband's mother and siblings knew or understood him. He was parentified young and they just projected whatever they wanted. [/quote]
