I have been with bratty relatives many times. I have 2 nieces, 1 on each side of the family, that are bratty. My daughter, age 8 now, has learned to be nice anyway, and sometimes will go out of her way to include them in whatever she is doing. I am very proud of her for that. Since your stepsister in not approachable about it, I would focus on teaching your son how to handle bratty kids. I have made comments to my daughter, loud enough for my sister to hear, about the way you should behave. Sometimes that works, sometimes it doesnt.
