I have one sister she is 10yrs my senior and an alcoholic. She and I are not close never have been, never will be. She moved out of the house when I was 6 and we have had little contact over the years. She was not there when my parents became ill and left the full responsibility of their care to me. After their deaths, I was left to deal with closing the estate during this process I give my sister a car, not a new car but less than 10yrs old. Now there is an issue with the title of the car and she expects me to take care of it. She calls me daily wanting to know it the issue has been resolved and when "I" plan to take care of it. My question why is it now my responsibility to look after her affairs? She was never there for me when I needed help. Thanks for letting me vent, your thoughts and opinions are welcomed.

I think if I were in your position, I would just tell her that you are busy and have done everything else. Tell her "this is where you call..." etc and then let her figure it out. If she left you "holding the bag" and having to deal with everything else, then I think she can figure out how to get this title thing straightened out. If she wants a free car, she will. :) Good luck and I am sorry you are having to deal with this. I have an immature sister who thinks everything and everyone should bow down and do what she wants when she wants, but she is 11 yrs younger than me. She still should grow up, but I do understand your feelings.

Depending on what the problem is you may have to deal with it. Seeing as you were the exectutor of the estate. Its not fair that you have had to take on all of the resposibility but obviously she wasnt capable. I would tell her to deal with it. I would tell her she needs to sort it out and its not your problem. goodluck
