Have you ever known anyone personally that writes life stories & gets things wrong about every other paragraph?

I have a sister that posts long stories on Facebook. She reposted something she wrote a couple years ago about young life on the farm. She made 6 major errors including attributing some things that happened to me or my sister to herself. Claims she was in 1st grade when JFK died, I remember sitting in 1st grade myself & having our teacher tell us & the whole classroom crying. She wasn’t even in school yet. This same sister has been writing a book about life & the family and has said she will publish it.

I guess people remember things in different ways. I know I do. I’d be a hopeless witness in a police trial as whenever i recall stories, i always seem to get the details wrong. Maybe I subconsciously change them to make the story better. :0)

@GentlemanGeorge She takes stories that happened to others and puts herself as the person it happened to. She is highly narcissistic and I believe that is the cause of it.

@cherokeepatti Well, I guess thats bad, but not exactly like she got caught selling children as sex slaves. Maybe chat to her about it, in a humorous way. Tell she’s getting old and remembering things incorrectly. She may just gasp and realise that she got it wrong. X

@GentlemanGeorge She hasn’t done that but she is evil in different ways. She has gotten someone arrested with her lies and also had at least two protective orders filed against her.

@GentlemanGeorge I do but she has a way of being destructive to others even when they do that.
