Phone call gone bad...

[FUNM]

Before going on holiday sister told parents she was tired and not coping with kids (has PND). Goes on holiday. No text saying she had arrived safely. Parents worrying all week. She gets back and phones up - dad is emotional and asks why she didn't have the decency to send a quick text. She takes it personally and conversation goes from bad to worse. She is now expecting a written apology from him but he doesn't think he needs to apologize. Any advice?

Your sister is an arse who will need her parents help long before they need hers so she should remember that before she starts behaving like an entitled little madam

As for a written apology? If I was her father and after I stopped laughing, I would be telling her to get to fuck

You sound delightful, I must say. Did you not understand that the OP's sister has PND?

Your sister may not be a particularly nice person but you're coming across as an incredibly unpleasant person too. I cannot believe how much detail you are giving in making her come across as the devil incarnate. What are you getting from this?!

if she's concerned - and i would be if my toxic sibling was displaying that behaviour.

it's a reasonable breach of personal privacy if it's come to the point where her illness is affecting her children directly.
For some reason the father of the kids seems not to be doing anything.

I think it's outrageous that your sister has asked your father for a written apology. I really hope he doesn't give her an apology. Dealing with a parent with terminal cancer was absolutely horrendous and if one of my siblings had dared to treat my parent they way your sister is treating your father, I think we'd have cut them out and told them to stay away.

I had a sister who had the most severe form of PND( postnatal psychosis), it was terrible for her and everyone around her but it in no way compared to the trauma of dealing with terminal cancer.

I've never seen so much projection

I've never seen such a drip feed

I'm with your dad on this. By all means you can support your sister through the PND but the idea she's demanding a written apology from her own terminally ill father is a joke in my opinion. I can't even see what he's supposed to have done wrong. Maybe he's been OTT on this occasion but a written apology?? Feel very sorry for your mum and dad.

are you on glue parent?

a dr wouldn't divulge patient info to OP....

Hey Jenna, I too have experienced PND and a parent die of cancer - yet I would completely disagree with you. So hey, everyone is different.

The only thing we can see for sure is how horrible the OP is being towards her sister.

Seeking sugar - I 100% agree with your final statement.
Awful to read. It's like she is gleefully enjoying the fall-out.

You can have PND and still behave like a brat - the two are not mutually exclusive or one causative of the other

I had severe pnd three times
I was drowning in my own despair and wouldn't have had the forbearance to demand that my terminally ill father write me an apology
