If you have none they will try their best to keep you guys in the same household. [ Cassiopea's advice column | Ask Cassiopea A Question ]

I would have to agree. It is up to your dad as to where you're going.
I don't think that you'll split you up at all. And i certatinly don't think that you'll go to a foster home because it is likely that you might go to a close family member.
The very best of luck to you, your sister and your father for the future,
crazyme6 answered Friday February 22 2008, 2:08 am: i am so so sorry first of all. this is truly up to your dad..he should have this planned if he knows what's going to happen..HOPEFULLY you can move in with another family member such as a grandma or aunt, or possibly you could live with a friend or cousin until youre 18 and old enough to live on your own with your sister. and the question below is not accurate, trust me, you will get to stay with your sister. people these days are alot more caring and any other family member in your family will hopefully have a home for you taken care of. in two years you can live on your own & your sister too but you have to consult people and stuff of course. trust me im sure you wont be left alone to figure all of this out..i sure hope not..i will keep you in my prayers and stay strong..everything will be okay and they will be looking down on you and God will guide you & your sister to make sure you are safe.

Nobody and certainly know, there are almost certainly variables. There may be a chance you will split up with your sister, but if you request to be with your sister, they might consider.
