Every time my sister comes over.

I'm pretty sure my sister and her husband dont like me. Every time they're here, I get kvetched (complained) at for something.

Tonight it was for talking about something in normal conversation. (telling my dad about the new gun my boyfriend bought) All of a sudden my sister is yelling at me for talking about guns in front of her kids. How was I supposed to know that talking about weaponry is forbidden in front of her kids.

Great that she doesnt let her kids watch tv shows that have guns and violence in them, but she cant expect me to edit my conversations about things when she doesnt give me a list of forbidden topics. I've gotten yelled at for asking my dad if he wanted a beer once...apparently being polite and offering to buy a beer for my dad at a family gathering is wrong to do in front of her kids too. They've been really pushing that alcohol is wrong and if you drink a beer or even talk about it you're a horrible person. (great. My nieces probably think I'm an axe murderer. I dont drink either because of the MS, doesnt mean my dad cant have a beer)

When I was in school or when I worked, I always felt like everyone was annoyed that I was there. I'd try to be nice, but it always seemed like people would get mad at me for no reason. I could never figure out why. (my nieces are autistic. Some of their mannerisms seem really familiar to me sometimes)
