My sister has two kids that pretty well everybody in the family loves. They are a lot of fun to be around and are really pleasant and well mannered. My sister knows this and uses it to her advantage, for instance. She will call us up in the middle of the day and asked to go get her a coffee, and do her groceries. I kind of laughed figuring it was a joke, it was not. So I refused and said she has to do those things herself as I have other things to do.
Long story short, I'm not allowed to see her kids now for two weeks. Its like a punishment system, if family members don't serve her, she takes her kids away for periods of time until family members bend to her will.
Worst part is, if I get all steamy and yell at her for it, she'll just keep her kids away for longer. She has painted the entire family into a corner and she holds all the cards and to be quite frank, she pisses me right off.
Anybody have any ideas on ways to diffuse this situation? Or has anybody had similar problems?
