[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's unlikely you'll ever receive the validation and resolution from your older sister and even your parents. At this point, I'd probably create a 3-way text with your twin and your older sister and say something like: "Mom told me that you'd like to join the trip that I planned to WV. Here's a link to the accommodations so that you can book a stay. Before the trip, I'd like to schedule a time the three of us can speak. [b]This trip means a lot to me and my kids, so I'd like it to be a positive experience and not enter the trip with a great deal of awkwardness and anger. I'd like to share with you how I've experienced some of our recent interactions so that we can arrive at a resolution that might make this trip more enjoyable[/b]."

She'll be defensive, but you will have a chance to express yourself. You can only control your actions.[/quote]

LOL, this is a blueprint for starting off the trip on the wrong foot. Jeez people.[/quote]

Why? [/quote]

"Before we go, I'd like us all to sit down so I can tell you my grievances about your behavior." What? Can't you all just try to enjoy each other's company for one weekend, even though the other people may be flawed?

What if the shit that spills about OP shocks the hell out of her -- or do you really think they have no grievances about HER, and is she ready to hear that and THEN have a weekend together?

Come on, a little bit of common sense goes a long way.[/quote]
