parents

I was one of those teenagers. The one’s who cause our parents to go gray and wonder why they ever had kids in the first place. My dad and I phsyically fought, I called my step-mom some things that I’m sure I’ll spend some time in one of the hell realms for, and I moved out of their house and into my mom’s when I was 15. Now we are all great friends and I deeply regret any pain I may have caused any of them. Now my sister is 15 and it is her turn to cause them some pain.

She’s a straight “A” student, a great athlete and really has it together. Too together. If she’d mess up more often I think things might be different, but then again some times I wonder. She has managed to talk my parents into allowing her boyfriend to live with them. Her boyfriend’s sister also lives there now. I think it’s great that they are willing to provide for them and help them out in a time of need. What I’m not so sure about is my sister being right down the hall from her boyfriend and my dad telling me that he goes to wake him up and there is my sister.

I certainly hope that this isn’t my fault, but I think it may be. I didn’t get to do what I wanted so I would go and do what I wanted without permission. This led to conflict and my parents, being smart and learning from the past, now remember what happened when they said “no” to me and don’t want similar conflicts with my sister. What to do, what to do…
