Dear Anyone,

My sister and her son moved in with me over 10 years ago as she was in an abusive relationship and only makes minimum wage. She has three kids and 1 grandkid and 2 more on the way. I have supported them fully and give her cars to drive. She is 2 years older than me. We used to be "friends" as well as sisters, but now that her kids are grown with kids of their own she pretty much ignores me and even resents that she has to rely on me. She treats me and my mother like obligations and annoyances rather than family. I would love for her to move in with her daughter (who just bought a new 4 bedroom house) but my sister kind of has it made and I'm the one that is miserable. I don't feel like it is my home anymore, I'm just moneybags. I don't even fix up the house like it should be because I resent her to the point of why should she benefit from my hard work. I love her and her kids and wish she would think of us all as family instead of alienating my and my mother.

More resentful every day
