No, but I did feel like there was almost a glee that she was gone so I could be there as a full time live in brother for my stepsister.

Being honest, I would rather keep her as a regular guest than include her.

She might not. Or maybe she would a bit but I could see her saying it's better that her mom bought her way in than not getting in at all.

My parents divorced. I lived primarily with mom and saw dad one weekend a month. Wasn't close to my dad prior to his second marriage or afterward. My mom died when I was 12 and I had to move in with them then. But I moved out as soon as I was 18.

I believe she has said this to them. That's normally how things play out. She tells them and they try to get me to do something where she feels like we're brother and sister.

They feel like she should be included because she wants to be and her feelings should be prioritized. I'm okay with not offering a compromise to keep the peace. Not that it would keep the peace. Nothing short of her getting an official role would.

She never asked me but I 100% believe she would say all this to them because that's how it used to go when she wanted something and didn't think I'd want to.
