Welcome to DU, Dr Morbius!!! :hi:

tango-tee, it sounds like the thing you may have most control over (and perhaps
least responsibility for) is your baby sister. Have the talk with her. Just
because she's permanently unemployable as an art historian doesn't mean she's
permanently unemployable. She may just have to be like most folks -- get a job
where she'll have to struggle more than some others (or more than she might have
to if she could find that mythical art historian job).

I assume from the earlier Munchen comment that you might be living in Bavaria.
I lived in Nurnberg for 3-1/2 years and absolutely LOVED it -- much as I love
where I'm living now, I envy you your location -- there are probably many other
blessings in your life that your responsiblities may be standing in front and
blocking your view of.
.
Something else you'll have to work at -- this shrugging off (temporarily, at
least) the weight on your shoulders that I can only guess at -- but you seem
like a strong and resourceful person. If you see that as another one of your
responsibilities -- but this time a responsibility to take care of YOURSELF,
I'm sure you can throw the same talents into it as you would for one of your
family members.

HEY!! You're family too, you know.
