Mom wants to re-parent friend's spoiled child
Why did he tell you that he and his wife fight about you? And why do they fight about you?
Is your brother talking to you about things that he should be discussing with his wife?
If you truly have no idea why you are a problem for your sister-in-law, then you should ask her -- calmly and respectfully: "I've never understood what I do that bothers you so much. Do you want to talk about it?"
If all you receive in return is a snarl, then it might be time to block or mute her number from your phone. Don't make a big declaration or gossip with your siblings about it -- just do it.

-- Sad
Dear Sad: Great point.
