Ya,
I told my brother all we can do is help ourselves.
However, if someone was constantly rude to you at your job and acting like a child at your job, wouldn't you say something? I feel like we can't let certain things go. People need to be held accountable for their actions.
For now, we are going to approach all situations with "i messages"
like I feel confused when you are throwing a temper tantrum about finding the salt when I know you are capable of finding it. I feel like you are trying to get my attention, but I would like you to address me with words in the future.
It's like how I would address a two year old "use your words"
I feel like ignoring it and working on ourselves is impossible. Our whole lives we have known this isn't the way an adult should act, and yet we feel confused because it's happening. As a married woman on holidays with them over I can't let it go. Or I will explode.
Thanks for your response!
