A Guardian Angel for a Niece
by: Anonymous

Lydia, good on your niece for standing up for you against your sister because your sister is really twisted in her own way of thinking and she really needs help...but you need help, too, other than your niece sticking up for you. Have you tried counselling? I wish you and your niece all the best.
