To have lost it with my sister

[Cheery1004]

I was out with family and family friends yesterday for the football and a big event in my home town. Id only had about 5 drinks throughout the whole day so not drunk and same with my sister. It got to the evening and my sister said she was going to walk home alone. My DM said she would get a taxi with her and drop her off. But my sister was being awkward and was in a bad mood so kept replying no I'm walking home.
Obviously we don't want her walking home in the dark alone so I stepped in and said don't be silly. Why are you being awkward. We then started arguing with her telling me to shut up and saying I've been on my phone alot. Which I had as my ExP was texting my about our DS as he was really poorly. He had rung 111 and was keeping me updated. I was then going to the out of hours to meet then when this argument erupted. So I replied to sister yes I have been on my phone because DS is really ill. Her reply was oh woopydoo. So I lost it and stood up and told her how dare she say that about my ill DS. She the told me to f**k off. I had to leave as I was shaking with anger.
My DM is now blaming me and saying I should apologise. I said she should for saying what she did about my DS. AIBU to be angry and wanting an apology.

This all sounds so petty. Honestly, it sounds like a dumb, drunk fight. My advice is learn how to speak like adults. Her being frustrated at you being on the phone does not need you to descend into a rage where you are shaking.

Maybe you weren't as sober as you thought?

Give it a couple of days and both apologise to one another

Doesn’t sound like either of you were that sober tbh

How very Jeremy Kyle.

Ugh football yobs

Some people on here are very rude with their Jeremy Kyle and Football Tub comments. Really constructive

You were trying to make sure your sister got home safely and she was out of order with the childish whoopdedoo comment over your ds. I would leave it a few days. Hopefully in the cold light of day she will realise she was in the wrong

It's her choice whether she walks home or not unless she was so drunk you felt she couldn't make decisions (and you say you don't think she was that drunk). It's really annoying as an adult to have others pressuring you into lifts etc when you want something else.

If my kid required a 111 call I wouldn’t be out doing my football yob routine. Yabvu

“How dare you say that about my ill ds!”
She was probably thinking there’s no point pretending you’re so concerned when you’re out on the piss

You were all drunk, just a silly drunken row. No need for anyone to apologise really imvho.

You’d both been drinking and had a silly argument. Forget it. It doesn’t matter. Just say sorry for shouting and leave it at that

Drink less.

Your sister and your mother were discussing the merits of cab v walking - and you stuck your beak into their argument. I'm afraid it's you doing the apologising.

So you were pissed and she was pissed and you both acted like daft pissed people. Say sorry for losing it and move on.

She was drunk and wanted to walk it off she's an adult and can look after herself do you often make decisions for her? Leave her alone and dont boss around and annoy an obviously drunk person

Well...your sister was mainly concerned with her agenda, while you were similarly concerned with yours. She wasn’t thinking about your son, you were. She isn’t as invested in your son as you are. Her comment was quite callous but your insistence she get a taxi may have been overbearing. It sounds like a drunken outburst during which you were both arguing your point. Having a child doesn’t actually automatically trump all.
Forget about it now.

I was then going to the out of hours to meet then

How did you get there?

Hope your DS is okay

And I went out for an hour long walk at 10.45pm last night and it still wasn’t really dark when I got home just before midnight. So I’d have been really pissed off at you if you’d tried to stop me walking home.

Are you children?

It's a spat between you both - probably due to alcohol and heat. Rather than being concerned about some drama with your sister I think you need to have a hard look at yourself. Leaving a child when he's "really poorly" with an ExP who has to call for medical help just so you can go out and drink is unacceptable.

I stepped in and said don't be silly. Why are you being awkward.

It wasn't your business to 'step in' and tell another adult what to do. You started the argument so you should apologise.

I agree with PP - you both sound drunk and childish. The behaviour exhibited was childish and immature so perhaps move on (as an adult would do) and put it down to drink and heat.

Sounds like you were all a little les sober than you thought!

Tbh I’m surprised this even happened - if exp had been texting throughout the day saying how I’ll your ds was then what were you even still doing there?! Instead of drinking you should have been with your child perhaps?

Sounds like a typical fight where you aren’t actually drunk-drunk but have had enough to loosen inhibitions. Always a dangerous state to be in with siblings! Hopefully the two of you can laugh it off and move on.
