My Sister Doesn't Need Me Anymore

Unfortunately I don't think the shirt fundraiser is on anymore.

The site is: http://usqedu.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2356181439

Just ask them if you can have one. I'm sure they'll try and get one to you.

Cheers.

My brother went through this with me. I was his baby sis. I speak to him more often now. Our relationship has more substance now that we do spend time apart.

It might be a learning experience for her. She might want to be on her own now, but I can almost promise you that she will realize it's harder than she imagined.

A warning about the boyfriend; just keep a sharp eye. I'm not prejudging him, but with you being so protective, he may do something to counteract that.

Hope for the best!

What do you mean counteract?

[mooxey]

Speaking from a past experience with an ex, I'm just warning you that if your sister ever gets homesick for you (and she will, trust me) then her boyfriend might try to make her think that she needs him more than she needs her family.

That problem is more common than most people think, so just make sure your sister knows that no one is going to care for her the way that a brother does.

Thanks

as independently as I could so they would be able to fullfil their dreams and both of them did.They're bothe parents themselves now, so we can have serious talks as well as jokes about their roles in lifes as parents. And for the rest I trust in Yah Almighty to keep them safe cuz my possibilities are only human. Nevertheless I wish the relatioship between you and your sister will enter a new stage towards maturity and (more)love. Bless

I stumbled onto you vid; was quite amazed to see you getting emotional about a (seemingly) descission of independency on you sisters' account. Family structures indeed can be different. My son left for NZ when he was 18 and he used to live with me in the Netherlands. My notion about raising children is that they're never the possesion of the parents. So I've tried to raise them,

my brother is 23, he is a lot older than me, and is one of the best brothers ever. he picks me up from school and all...partially because he finished uni and quit his job...my parents want him to get any job, even if he has to go to perth or overseas or watever, but i dont want him to go...

Don't resent your sister boyfriend. Be glad for her though I do understand why you are worried. If you are this worried for her I'm assuming you two have a close relationship. If you do she will definately comeback and after sometime she'll miss you too. She probably just feels good being independent. I had a brother who left and I thought he would never comeback. He did though and it turns out he missed home a lot more then I'd thought. It'll all turn out okay! Cheer up!

Your compassion is very moving. All of my hopes are with you and your sister. One suggestion, buy her a single ticket from Sidney to home.

I guess you can be happy that in Sydney she will have a place to live and a job. It's better than going there without any plans at all. Of course you are going to miss her but I think she is really just spreading her wings a bit not abandoning her family. Hang in there.

I understand how you feel. My sister eloped with her boyfriend. I went into her bedroom to give her a magazine, and her room was empty, including belongings and furniture. Nobody knew she was gone until I walked into her room. It took several years before our relationship was repaired. Luckily, my sister's marriage has turned out okay, but it didn't seem that way at first.
