My Mum - is in her early sixties, widowed, has health issues but is working, very old fashioned, religious.
My sister - is 18, has been very ill recently with glandular fever and is being investigated for CFS as a result. Has dropped out of college as she missed an awful lot of work and is due to restart the year in September
They live together, my brothers and I are older and moved out years ago so there's just the two of them.
They DO NOT get on
They constantly wind one another up
They have both taken to posting passive agressive status updates on Facebook (ffs) and my sister has now defriended my mum (again ffs)
My sister thinks my mum doesn't like her, isn't prepared to go out of her way for her, is unsupportive and unloving.
My mum thinks my sister needs to sort herself out and get a job and stop sponging off her
They are probably both right
I do feel for my sister though, my Mum is not an easy person to live with, especially when you're a teenager, she disaproves of any behaviour that isn't church attending grade advancing type of stuff. She was like that with me when I was that age
I am being dragged in my sister is really upset and needs to feel that someone in her family gives a shit
No idea what I'm looking for by posting really, but would appreciate any thoughts or comments.
Just aaaarrrrrgggggggggggghhhhhhhhh really
