This story sounds all too familiar. My brother had his tantrums quite a lot when he was 19. Not saying it was the age. But Mom and Dad put up with it till he broke 3 of Dad's ribs and sprained Mom's ankle. Then after that blew over they put up with it all over again.
I'm not saying your sis will do those things but sometimes the parents are just so stuck in their ways there's nothing you can do to change it.
My parents will support my brother financially even when they're on the verge of bankruptsy. They are now. He's living in a house of their's for basically nothing. He and his mooching wife. He's 25yrs old now btw. When we need a couple bucks for milk we have to give a complete account of our past spending habits. It's irsome. I've just gotten to the point where I know I'm on my own and taking care of myself. I cannot expect any help from them. I KNOW that they'll help him and facilitate his behavior indefinately and there's nothing I can do about it.
I finally asked them to stop calling and telling me about the trouble my brother was making. That I couldn't help and didn't want to stress over it so I did not want to even know. They at least understood that and let me alone.
You'll probably just have to turn a blind eye to it all if your situation is what it sounds like. Good Luck.
