advice
My sister is 18 and has recently been kicked out by my mother due to dumb issues. Now I love them both, but my sister is telling me crap about my parents and my parents are telling me crap about my sister. They basically want me to pick sides. Do I pick my parents that have raised me and that I will be stuck with for at least 4 more years? Or do I pick my sister because shes like my best friend?
Your parents and your sister should both be more mature than this! Neither your parents nor your sister should be putting you in the middle. Remind them that you love both of them, no matter what the other does, and if they loved you, they wouldn't try to make you the center of their pettiness. Tell them that because of your precarious position, you think it's unfair to be asked to pick sides, especially since you have nothing to do with the central issue--that is between your parents and your sister only.
IF they insist, tell them you will not make a single comment, but if they want to work it out, you'll be more than happy to play mediator.
