*Just for the record, my sister and I get along well, this is just something she does which kind of bugs me, and there's not a tactful way to say anything*
To give some background info, Heather (my daughter) lives with my mom, she and a friend apparently created a Facebook profile for another friend, and things got a little inappropriate. Also, last night my mom was babysitting Patty's (my sister's) kids.
It seems that last night was when everything came out about the Facebook profile having gotten slightly out of hand, and because Patty was there picking up her kids, I guess she decided to step in and get involved, decided that Heather needed to delete her own Facebook profile, get her phone taken away,.....etc. (meanwhile, I guess my sister's husband also "had" to get involved since he was there)
Which is great that they are willing and able to help out with parenting stuff, since I'm not always able to do so. At the same time though, it sometimes happens that I'll suddenly get the "Well you're the mother, YOU need to deal with this" speech from them.........and there's just not a nice way to point out that I never know when they are/are not going to butt in and get involved.
