Tough Talk,
My sister “D” is a wonderful girl, funny, loving and vivacious. She’s helpful and considerate without ever having to be asked. When our mother was in the hospital, she took care of everything. And not so much as asked anyone for anything. But she has one nasty habit that I want your advice on. She snaps on people with no reason and out of nowhere. Sometimes she’s right, but the way her temper flares can be really scary. It just happens and people walk away with their feelings hurt and stop calling and coming over. What should we do TT?

Dear Lawford,
This is a very easy problem to solve, especially if you have other family member and friends willing to help out. All you need to do is the next time your sister pipes up like this, you douse with a bucket of cold water and scream, “Shut up you miserable piece of crap!” That will get her attention and focus herself on her behavior to such a point, that she will stop being so GD obnoxious.
