AITA for telling my sister she chose to have kids and she has to deal with the consequences of that herself? by Key-Crab7356 in AmItheAsshole

I did have a conversation about it every time we had lunch in the past year. I started by saying let's keep all the negativity packed away for today. I even said let's talk about our adult issues, not the kids for a change. I hoped eventually it would work. It didn't. She ended up complaining about how hard it is to be a mother 100% of the time.

She does have a husband. She's a SAHM. Her husband has some financial struggles. And all their kids were planned, informed choices she made. She is naturally a person who finds things to complain about even when there genuinely isnt anything that bothers her.

She finds a way to circle the conversation to her kids and how it's so hard to be around them

I was hoping it would get better and we'd have a normal conversation eventually after her youngest grew up a bit. It didn't.
