I have 2sisters. I am the middle sister.
The oldest sister has always been very bossy, opiniated but the first to jump in to help but will remind everyone of how much she does. We used to be close.
My younger sister married a man that few people in our family liked. But, she's kind, passive &very unconditional. We are very close.
I used to be very close to my older sister. Although she was bit over bearing i always felt it was with good intentions.
I had a mc in February. When i told my older sister her reply was'Im going to vomit' i thought it was because i had miscarried. No, it was the thought of me being pregnant. I have 5dc. 2grown up. Younger. Dc are 11, 8 & 4. ds8 has ASD.
Ive basically distanced myself from her since. Yesterday she sent me a text. She's been on a religious trip. The text said how she realised disabled kids are gifts from god after all!
I should have ignored it but i texted back something along the lines of 'Yes i realised that 4years ago but didn't realise u didn't already know that'. I shouldn't have responded as now its all blown up.
Basically because i have confided in her, she says she has the right to give her opinion on my dc, their behaviour, my dp, if we are having any more dc...
I never critise her, her dc, dh, home, career choice or friends. But if i talk about these things, it gives her the right to be critical.
My other sister isn't like this but what i need know is, is my older sister right?
