I lived at home when I went to college and it would have been great if my sister had moved out of state like she said she was going to do instead of deciding to stay home at the last minute. She always tried to have a hand in everything I did, tried to tell me what to do, etc., and our parents often supported it to keep her happy. She got to be happy and I didn't.
When she did finally move it, it got alot better because my parents pretty much left me alone to do what I wanted as long as I kept my grades up. They didn't care if I spent every Saturday night watching Dr. Who and Red Dwarf instead of going to football games like when my sister was home.
When she came back though, it all went by the wayside, but when she left again, it was all fine again.
Never made sense to me as to why my sister had to be catered to the way she was.
