My younger sister Lena got married 20 years ago. Then she immediately moved to live in another city. Our mother always hoped that she would meet old age near her daughter, but Lenka came to her home very rarely. It was always just me with my mother.

Lenka's life was good. My husband had his own business, his own car, and soon he had his own house. Anyway, my sister lived happily ever after. At one point, I realized I hadn't seen her in about 25 years. He's not young anymore, he's busy. And she wasn't in a hurry to come.



During this time, our parents went to heaven, leaving us a small land inheritance. There is a small house in the private sector. By itself, it was quite bad, without repairs can not do. While my sister was away, I almost completely rebuilt the house, built a garage, and renovated the whole yard.

Financially, my family was doing well. Not as good as Lenka, of course, but still. I had 3 cows, a tractor, a decent car. During the marriage, three beautiful children were born. And everything was fine until one day my sister knocked on our door.



First she called to congratulate me on my birthday. I admit I was surprised: it does not look like her at all. And then my sister stunned me with the news that she was coming to visit us. I knew immediately that something was wrong. Lena did not even come to her mother to take her on her last trip. Look at the generosity.

Lena's problem came soon, and my wife and I met her kindly. But then the sister began to say that her family life did not work out. Her husband found someone younger and just kicked her out of the house. Then she remembered that there is a parental home, which she did not visit for 25 years. He says he'll live here too.

My wife and I were shocked. She hadn't been there for so many years, and of course she didn't pay for any utilities or repairs. We did everything ourselves. I wanted to solve the problem in a logical way. Offered her money as compensation. But Lenka refused. She says she won't buy an apartment for that kind of money. He wants to live here.



Of course, you can live here now. Everything is new and tidy. She didn’t give her mother a penny in all these years. How can you be so insolent? The wife insists that the matter be decided in court. But I don't want to sue my sister. It doesn't seem human. I'm still willing to pay Lenka compensation. What am I supposed to do? What is the right thing to do in this situation? ?

Sometimes relationships with relatives are upsetting. Like someone you’ve known since childhood, Becoming a stranger to you? People change, and that’s normal. Unfortunately, our subscriber's story looks like his sister won't make contact. As a result, the wife will be right, and only the court will solve the problem. Yeah, of course it's sad. But it's fair enough.
