Roughly four years ago my dad died of cancer. Now not too long ago my sister aquired a boyfriend who smoked. Which I don't have much of a problem against by the way. He's a stranger and it is addictive. Of course then my sister who I am seriously starting to think has no personality of her own (I've been looking but she's 17 and so far has made no choice of her own that isn't influenced by someone else) she then starts smoking.
Boyfriend is now out of the picture (though as I speak a new friend who is of the male gender is staying over for the night). I'm hoping the smoking is gone as well but walked past her room today and it reeks of smoke. I'm not sure whether I will confront her. My mom won't want me to I think. She's been walking on eggshells around her ever since she got into the 'oh woe is me, I am so hard done by' stage.
I'm disapointed in my sister. She knows better. I know she knows better.
I'm not going to talk to her with her friend here. I don't want to embarress her but it looks like I might have to step up to the plate so if it goes on like this someone has got to discuss it with her. If no one else is going to do it then it might as well be me.
Who knew that at age 23 I'd be helping raise two teenagers?
