Problem With Sis (Again)
12 Answers
Hi everyone, my older female friend has invited myself and my young daughter to stay in her Spanish apartment for a wk in Spain, really looking forward to a relaxing holiday and excited for my daughter who has not been abroad, I'm really looking forward to My daughter and I spending quality time together. When I first told my sister she asked if her and her child come and I said no because I have been invited by my friend and my friend doesnt even know her, anyhow my sister has now asked if she pays for my nephew will I take him with me. Am I being selfish because I don't want to take him? I'm really annoyed that my sister has made me feel bad about this.

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.No, you are not selfish. i think you should be firm and tell her this is time for you to spend with your daughter, and suggest maybe she should do the same with her child, but just not with you. I know how you feel, sisters can be so overwhelming sometimes and have a tendency to make you feel bad. We love them dearly, but we also have a life without them. In your case put your child first and if she wants her child to have a holiday, then that's her responsibility to book one without you.
My sister asked me to take her daughter on my family holiday, but i said no. Reason being, this was my first holiday with my children, and i wanted to spend quality time with them, without anyone else around. I don't see that as being selfish. Selfish is parents wanting to dump their kids on others! enjoy your holiday hon xx
