[quote=Anonymous]I have dealt with this from my sister. Not just holidays but other family functions as well. I am not the only person she does this with either. I am sure your brother is the same. She has some sort of entitlement complex. I stopped being a doormat long ago and the rest of the family eventually followed suit. Our first blow up happened over TG a few years back. I also got the my family and I are not coming. I told her she would be missed and hoped to see her at Christmas. Guess what she and her family did end up coming for TG but they stayed in a hotel and they have ever since. If anything this has improved our relationship because there is no longer so much resentment. Our parents and other siblings have implemented the same firm boundaries with her as well. Since we have been doing this there has been 90% peace and harmony at family functions. Being a doormat does not do ANYONE any favors.[/quote]
