Growing up, I was a prick, bully, asshole, monster, you name it-- to my younger sister. As a kid, she didn't listen to my parents, which made me beat her up. I also teased her ruthlessly, calling her names and saying hurtful things. When she turned 18 and moved out of state to college, she decided to stop talking to me (for obvious reasons). 

Nowadays, we only see each other during the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays though she refuses to even acknowledge me. My parents have tried to get her to talk to me, though that just aggravates her. I wrote a letter to her months ago, profusely apologizing for my wrongdoings and expressing an interest in starting fresh. She did read this letter and from what I heard from my parents, seemed to have appreciated it. 

Right now, she's home for the Thanksgiving holidays. She explicitly told my parents that she doesn't want them to get her to talk to me. I understand and respect my sister's right to not talk to me. I would like to try making amends before throwing in the towel and letting her be. I would appreciate any suggestions as to how I may reconcile with her.

I was a jerk as a kid to my sister who now refuses to talk to me. She read my letter expressing my remorse and seems to have appreciated it. I would like to reconcile with her in a

Sister doesn't talk to me since I bullied her when we were kids; seeking advice on reconciliation.
