Whenever I mention it to my husband he gets angry and justifies her mean behavior. But she is spiteful, petty and manipulative. I have been in her life since she was 2, so she has grown up with having me around. Her parents split when she was 1, and we have her every weekend. My husband makes excuses for her, and REFUSES to talk to her about being mean. She's mostly mean to my son who is a very kind child (probably to a fault), and when I say something to my husband, he says we need to stay out of it and let them work it out themselves, and says my son does things to provoke her mean behavior. I don't think that's the way to teach her lessons about relationships. I believe in respect within the family, even between siblings. How can I make my husband see that he needs to do something about this?
