On the one hand how many sisters do you have and is it worth potentially damaging the family relationship, she will be your child's aunt forever over money..or do you stick with the money side of things.

I have one simple rule in dealing with family: Unless you are my wife, you don't get to **** me.
That means that I air all my feelings to my family ALL THE TIME. I never hold back, unless the issue is trivial and not worth dealing with. This approach has caused me a lot of grief, but it's also built amazing relationships with my family with open communication, understanding, and respect.
I think you really need to call your sister out and ask her why she thinks you're not important and why she's disrespecting you and your family. I would never allow my sister to get away with that without giving her the mental and emotional equivalent of a noogie.
EDIT: Then if she didn't get her **** together, I'd kick her out, with very clear communication about the reasons for doing so and how they are born out of love, for her and your family.
