Raceka, you are so strong.

My Mom has kicked my sister out lots of times but never pressed charges on her for the many, many things my sister stole.

My Mom also was stuck with one of my sisters needles. My sister got kicked out this last time because she dropped a pill on the floor. There are lots of little ones that go to my Moms house and my Mom couldn't risk one of the babies getting a hold of something. I am also one of my sister aliases, luckily I knew a cop to clear my record she created for me. This was a long time ago and I forgave her.

My sister has been homeless many times. She has been to jail, rehab and halfway houses many times. I do leave her alone and only talk to her when she is doing well. I cry for her all the time and I'm sure my Mom cries more for her lost children.

My Mom and us sisters are much harder on my sister then we are on our brother (who also has a dependency problem). I have no idea why but I have a soft spot for my brother. My Pop-pop especially favors him because my Dad passed. I know this is only hurting him but how do you get a man in his 80's to listen to you!

My sister's in a really good program right now and doing very well. When she comes home she fails, I just wish I knew a way to be more emotionally supportive to her so she doesn't want go back to that life style.

Thank you all for your relpies
