[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Mom wants to invite my sister to Christmas. The one who I told I didn't want to hear from her again unless we met in a therapist's office. I thought the family mutually decided we could not stand for her drama anymore. I mean, I know we did, but now it's Christmas and Mom wants us all to be together no matter what. I will have to work Christmas night. Maybe she could come over after I leave.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Laga, stick to your guns on this one. Try to gently remind your mom that not being accepted into the group is part of the natural consequences for the habitual behaviors of this sister rather than a "punishment", and that protecting others from the consequences of their behaviors is what enablers do, and it keeps them from facing the true need to change. It hurts like hell, stopping the enabling, because so much of what it is feels like being loving and helping. Telling such a person that there will be unpleasant consequences of continuing in a behavior then giving in on those consequences is rather like giving a child a cookie to shut 'em up out of a screaming tantrum. Doesn't solve the root of the problem, and reinforces the idea that carrying on is the way to get what they want.
You know what, you can tell me to shut up, if you want. I'm sure I'm preaching to the choir on this one.
{{{{{Laga}}}}} that's what you really need.
