Sounds like basic the basic sister:brother dyad to me.

Or, for that matter, why her brother matters in the equation. If she
lives at home and is still supported by the guardians, it's not
inappropriate for them to impose some rules, even if they seem ridiculous to
an outsider. If she's on her own, of course, the guardians shouldn't have
any control, except the control she allows them to have.
