Siblings at Christmas time (ours not the kids!!). Am I the only one who is driven nuts by her siblings?

[snowfunwhenyoureknackered]

The other rant thread seems all to be about older relatives at Xmas, but half of mine are dead and the other half are nearly 80.

It's my siblings who drive me nuts. Don't want to go into it all as I type very slowly and would still be typing on New Years Eve.

Has anyone else got issues with their siblings and can type fast enough to share?

moon66, yes i get the horrible shaky feeling when i see her, try to avoid going in to town when i can just sense that she will be there too (i know when her mornings off work are!!)She is also a total bully and 7yrs older than me, my mum and dh hate the way shes treated me..
At xmas she makes special plans to avoid seeing me and my kids, and doesnt even bother with getting them cards/presents any more.

Snowfunwhenyoureknackered (like the name btw) I know, it is a terrible situation. It's really worrying, actually, I just don't know what the end outcome will be. My Sister's BF has a six year old dd and he wouldn't dream of treating her like that. He obviously has no feeling for my Nephew whatsoever. My Nephew is really feeling it now, and keeps saying things to my Mum like he wishes I was his Mum. Poor love, I will take him on if it comes to it, don't know how that would work out though, as he and one of my boys don't get along, and I would have to consider my Son's feelings first. The good thing is that my Nephew has me and my family, my Mum and my other sister and her family to support him. His Mum needs a bloody good slap.

yep got one at the moment everyone in my family is expecting me to just drop everything to accomidate (litrally) my brother as he can't afford to pay his rent after getting the sack. Just got TOLD this afternoon "oh I'm moving into yours tonight" and when I kicked up a fuss my parents kicked off with me. Well they can all go fuck off as far as i'm concerned I have no family.

I have a brother who was having relationship problems with his dp last year. Dp's sister actually rang me at home (having never met me before) to ask me to speak to my brother about his behaviour towards dp, as if I could do anything about it!

I didn't. They sorted themselves out in the end.

agree with the slap! allnearlyover.

what a hard situation to be in..................
