OK, so we're out for lunch. And there's me, Alan, my mum and dad, my brother, his mother, my nan and my sister. And, we order food to have - like you do - and my sister orders lamb. Now, picture this.. We get the food, in great time and we start to dig in.. And then, my sister, says her lamb is dry and asks for some gravy and it comes, lumpy. OK, this isn't the problem, but I'll tell you what is...



My sister sits there and begins to moan about the food and how horrible it is. But, instead of just quietly saying she didn't like it, she decides to show the family up and proceed to sit there and shout about it. So, we tell her to go and take it back and she'll get something else. To which, she goes to take the food back and then says she'll never eat in this place again.



She goes on to say why is it I always get the crap food, whenever I come out with this f'ing family! Now, everyone has a right to moan, but why does she take out her anger on us? EVERYWHERE we take her, she always moans about her food either being cold, lumpy, or just not nice. Now, I don't mean quiet moaning, I mean, slamming her fists on the table and shouting. Like, really childish behaviour!



Now, this isn't on the odd occasion, like I said, its EVERY TIME! There's ways and means to getting your point across, but you don't need to go about screaming and shouting and lashing out! She was like this when she came to stay with us for the weekend a few weeks ago.. She's ALWAYS moaning and we're all sick of it.



Her poor mother was embarrassed - as were we - at her unacceptable behaviour.. And, you know, my sister wonders why my niece has a nasty attitude sometimes... Now we all know where she gets it from!!



After her attitude and behaviour towards the family, she is NO LONGER welcome to my home.. I will not tolerate her CONSTANT moaning and biting people's heads off when asked a simple question!! My parents are regulars to the pub in question and she showed my mother up - never again will she behave it that way in front of my mother!
 
32!
 
Sounds like she's seeking attention that she's not getting elsewhere. You didn't mention a husband. Is she married or perhaps divorced?
 
Neither.. She's always been like this. She's embarrassing!!

Sometimes I hate going out to eat with her, she's never satisfied....

Not understanding the neither answer. Either she's married, divorced or maybe never has been married? Anyhow, the best solution is to not invite her when you guys go out to eat. Sooner or later maybe it will sink in her head that this behavior is not acceptable. By keep inviting her, you all are enablers to allow this behavior.

Like I said, Sis. We will no longer be inviting her out to eat with us. I have told my parents she's no longer welcome to my home.

She has some sort of mental illness and needs professional counseling.



In the mean time, either put up with her, and it, or Don't.

I can't say any more than this, but yes.. You're in the right area and yes, she's got help, Doc..
