Answer 1

i think you should go out with your friends, maybe confront your parents and your sister..

Answer 2

when it happens again speak up! Say how fed up you are and try to sort it out! Keep on trying to help them! Hope it goes well.

Answer 3

this is one of the regrets of having children. Having a foolish patak

like your sister. Children like her make some parents whish they never

were born. How to deal with it? Run away. Or better still get that fool you have for a sister to move. Parents dont need children like her and

never want children like her. Get your sister to move or maybe she will get knocked up and wind up in some home. Try to convince your parents to get rid of her. Perhaps your parents should just plain throw her out. Sounds like a plan.  

Answer 4

tell your family that they can solve their problems in a more civil way and that they are both escalating the issue into an argument instead of sitting down and talking about it in a mutual and neutral way

don't worry too much about your friends and how they seem to be happy because you don't actually know what goes on with them

and whatever happens... you need to be strong  

Answer 5

well just don't worry about it even though they may fight they still love each other very much. the only reason your  parents are fighting with her is because they are just trying to tell her that it is not good for her to this and that she is setting a bad example for you. so the next time your parents and your sister fight don't worry nothing is really going to happen. or if you feel really scared then when they are done arguing pull your mom or dad a side and tell them how you feel they should understand and you should feel a lot better.

Answer 6

The truth is that almost every family that has a kid at that age living at home is going to have a lot of arguments.

Your sister is probably feeling crushed and dominated because she's 19 and still living under someone else's rules. At that age, she probably thinks she's always right about everything and it causes a lot of stress between family members.

Your parents are trying to control an adult now, and that's a pretty daunting task. Things may get better as your sister gets a little more mature, however there's always the chance that she'll continue to be defiant until she moves out.

I would give her the idea of getting an apartment and a room mate. Try and encourage her to approach your parents with the idea in a respectful manner.

The experience would be good for her.
