Why does my younger sister depend/rely on my mom so much all the time?

My younger sister is always texting my mom to help her out with something everyday….. she tells my mom non stop that she’s sick or has sore joints/ body aches…. doesn’t even know how to use a toilet plunger if the water goes too high…my mom goes all the way to my sisters house just to unplug the toilet for her and to help her put stuff in the oven because she claims stuff is too heavy for her to lift! She even asks my mom for groceries then ends up throwing food away in the end or asking my mom to return it to the store…. my mom also takes out her garbage for her and one night at 8pm when my mom was about to go to bed she was asking my mom to go over there to get her a new blowdryer for her hair because she didn’t know how to reset the plug!!!

why does my sister rely on my mom so much? And why can’t she just go see the doctor if she’s so “sick”?


she’s gone for blood work and X-rays and the doctors don’t find anything in her yet she complains a lot about not being “well”.

She’s incompetent
My mom makes herself too available
