Update on sister

I guess I should update on my sister.  She hasn't talked to our parents since Nov, when they got their truck from the police barracks.  She's mad they think she's on drugs.  Erm... yea.  My mom talks to my niece, who is living with her ex bf's brother.  The ExBF is in jail.  My nephew has been around, and said he wasn't talking to her until she made it right with our parents.  My parents said no, don't do that.  I guess he gave her a what for after he heard their side of the story.  I told him if he needed anything to let us know.  I know neither of his parents aren't reliable. 

Anyway, beginning of this month she asked to be friends on FB.  I knew mom would like a way to see how she's doing, so I accepted.  Sister texted me later asking to come see the baby during the week that week.  I said, sure, but mom is here during the week if that matters.  No response.  Niece called me on my birthday and I asked if they were coming over.  She said her mom is trying to mend bridges but is still mad at our parents.  We both agreed they all need to sit down and talk... but nothing has happened. 

I think I might set something up with just us, I know she wants to see E. 

Also, I got E's Easter pictures done and posted them on FB.  Sis liked them, commented.  Then last night, she posted them on her FB.  I have an aunt who asked if she could do that, and that's fine.  SHE ASKED.  I mean, my sister just said, my lil sis's baby.  It's just weird to me.

Re: Update on sister

  • it seems like she just wants everything to be better but doesn't want to put the work into rebuilding trusting relationships :/ 

    I'm sorry that your family is still going through this :(

    Sorry things are still weird and you have to kind of be the gatekeeper--That is stressful.  T&P's that everything gets settled and that your sister grows up finally and takes some responsibility for her life!

  • Such a hard situation to be stuck in the middle of. I hope it gets easier.

  • I hope she comes around and things get better soon for you guys.  It sounds like it's moving in a positive direction, just a little slow.

  • I hope your sister and family can reconcile.  You are doing the right thing by trying to have her visit with E.  Keep us posted!
  • I hope that she really does want to reconcile and change her ways.  I think that you are doing a good thing in having her visit.  It will give you perspsctive on whether or not she is being sincere in her actions.

  • Thanks.  I've been dragging my feet with the visit because I don't want drama.  Hopefully it's enlightening and helps push things in the right direction.  I know my niece is coming to Easter dinner at my parents house.  She's excited to see E too.  I need to just text my sis some dates that are good and see if she wants to come over.

    I can only hope.  I know she quit her waitressing job, and is a nanny now.  I think she watches a 4 yo and 4 month old.  She's still with her "ex" (as far as I can tell on FB), the one that got pulled over in my dad's truck and pending drug charges.
