To be pissed off with my sister for the millionth time this year.

I'm sure people will have read my posts on my sis before.

I'm just fed up now because she keeps saying to my mum she'll come down for tea, but then she rings after it's made and says she'll just pick the food up for her and her H and go home. That's so rude.

Sometimes she begs my mum to make her dinner and take it to work so mum has to cook tea in the morning!! Or she'll say she's coming down to see the family on Saturdays and Sundays and because she can't be bothered cooking, she gets my mum to make her H a full english breakfast, and her something seperate.

She also gets my mum to buy her shopping because she 'can't afford it', but it turns out they're bringing in a bigger wage than mum and dad.

Mum's fed up of it, and run down, and feeling used, but doesn't know how to say no and doesn't want to start world war three.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr....

AIBU????!!!!

Your sistyer souynds like a cowbag.

She needs to be told to grow up. You muym and dad need to stand up to her. Give them your full support. This cannot continue.

A married 31 year old who still relies on her mum is pretty pathetic IMHO

Don't you have dc Wilbur? And yes your sister is being v selfish imo.

YANBU! Point out to your sis that M&S is the place to go for ready meals, as the staff there don't add cat litter and other unpleasant things to them, which can no longer be guaranteed at her current suppliers.

Your problem is not your sister. Your problem is that your mum offloads on you as a substitute for actually tackling the problem herself, and then refuses to allow you to do anything about it either, leaving you frustrated and powerless.
My mum does this too, and it is infuriating but it is NOT your issue - your mum either needs to deal with it or give you permission to - NOT dump her frustration on you and leave you to seethe on her behalf.

You are quite right, elasticwoman, I do have dc and they will be at the party for a bit so that will be plenty of living relatives. Was feeling sorry for myself this am. Sisters, eh?
