Re: little sister

I think your sister is reacting to the changes going on around her. She's no longer the baby b/c your dad now has an infant to occupy his time. Plus, everyone is focusing on you b/c you're getting married. Your sister either wants attention or doesn't know how to handle these changes. I think you should sit her down and try to talk to her. Hopefully she will open up.

Re: little sister

It's tough bc she's 16.. at 16 I know I didn't care about anything but boys parties and my life.. I would say she is being immature.. she's not in that stage of her life to grasp the importance that this is to you and how excited she should be.. She's probably pissed off that she could be going out on your wedding night instead of being stuck at the RH all night!!! Try to be as understanding as possible.. I am not at all condoning her actions but she is only a teenager..

Re: little sister

Teenagers are moody, I don't think I've ever met one who wasn't FH's lil sister hasn't been the nicest about the wedding even threatening not to come and things like this hurt, Just talk to her tell her how much she means to you and how happy you are that she is in your wedding. Explain to her how you feel, sometimes things work itself out!
Good luck!
XOXOXO
Kitty

Ok.. I think you really just need to maybe take her to lunch and sit down with her alone and have a heart to heart! At that age, really all they care about is their friends and 'hanging out.'
Not to mention every little thing in their life is really a big thing! I read that her dad had a baby.. well that's probably hitting her hard and making her feel a lot of jealousy not to mention you getting married is putting a lot of attention on you as well. She is feeling really left out I'm sure. I think maybe you should try to make her feel really important at this moment. It sounds like maybe she is looking for the attention and obviously you can see it.. so she is letting people know it. I feel so bad for girls at that age! I went through A LOT at that age, and if I didn't have certain people in my life today that weren't there for me, I wouldn't be who I am today. Maybe she just needs a role model and you may be the one who can help.
This can be a rewarding time in your life too!!!




I agree. Teenage years are very hard and she really might be reaching out for attention. I understand your point that you feel she is being maybe a little selfish, but maybe you need to have a heart to heart. Lunch or a manicure/pedicure together sounds like a good idea.
