Sisters are wankers

[Japanesejazz]

My much beloved grandmother has recently died
She left me a cabinet with all its contents
My parents other child has only requested an item which was within the cabinet
lots of other items were available
the other child does not communicate with the family at all
my parents have given it a key to remove the item (first time she has spoken to them in a decade) but they will do anything to reconcile
and I am apparently irrational annoyed
the item has no monetary value

It’s one item, let it go and feel better that you were the one with the better relationship

Whats the item to you?

[TeaKitten]

It’s one item and this person isn’t an ‘it’, they are your sister. You get every other item. You also weren’t the only person to love your grandmother.

Be the bigger person, for the sake of allowing your bereaved parent (and yourself) peace.

And don't refer to your sibling as 'it'. Be better than that.

I’m sorry you have lost your grandmother. Emotions run high at such times. I think it’s nice that your sister was able to ask. Of course your parents should have consulted you, but I guess their hope is that some thing good could come from this bereavement. Maybe they felt strongly that your grandmother would have wanted them to do this?

If your Gran left in her will that the cabinet and it's contents were yours then your parents had no right to allow your sister to take something that now belongs to you. I'm sorry that has happened.

Unfortunately if the item has little monetary value there probably isn't much you can do to get it back other than ask.

When my mum died a few years ago she left me her display cabinet and contents. I had the only key. My thieving bastard siblings broke the lock and took items they wanted which had a monetary value.

I'll bet that one item had a value.
