Got a hypersensitive older sister. how do i talk with her about her health without her taking offense?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Offensive: You can't control your sister's response to you. If you try to approach her in a kind and gentle manner, and you use open ended questions, this will decrease the probability of defensiveness. But you can't control how she will react or respond to you.
