“This is how it is when I deal with my older sister.”

Hey! I’M the OLDER SISTER in MY family! There will be NO dissension in the ranks, LOL!

My advice? Giver her TWO options. Let HER decide the outcome/locale (that you, yourself have ALREADY decided!) and make her THINK it was HER idea to begin with and all will be well. ;)

It’s really not THAT HARD to deal with The Older Sister. ;)

LOL. How much older are you than your sister?

Mine is 7 years older and think she’s 8, but she can’t do basic math in her head.

I will go wherever she *thinks* she wants us to go, but I think I am finally moving past her drama queen tantrums, and will rent a completely different unit this time around.

That way, when she wants to pout for 5 days and hide in her room, she won’t be around to greet me with a grunted ,”Ughhh!” in the morning when I see her first thing and say “good morning” to her.

I will take your advice under consideration, and see if I can make it work. Lord, knows, I’ve tried everything.

Truly, I think I’m her trigger for behaving badly.
