    Default parents splitting

    how many of you had divorced parents growing up?
    my parents are splitting up, the problem is that i have a younger sister (shes 9). They argue and its been getting more intense lately. Today they made the decision to split after going to one council session.

    Mom is moving out of their house and living with a friend. My sister will be back and forth. I know that this is hard on her. I went through it growing up and i want to be able to confort her, i dont know how. Im afraid my memories are somewhat blocked and im not sure what gave me some comfort.

    I know being there as often as i can will help.

    Problem is.. Im broke. I had made previous booking plans with clubs in the midwest and living out of my car plans (its ironic that the homeless post was made). not only to make money, time to get in shape and get a better hustle and wider experiences.

    if this is the option i go with, ill fly (or drive BACK) during xmas. a ticket would be about 350 roundtrip and continue my bookings when i arrive back. This option isn't so good on time spent with her.

    Now that all of this has happened i have another option, staying here, losing weight and getting back into the clubs in this area. It changes my plans. I've been so selfish putting on all this weight, now i have to deal with the side effects!


    advice?

    good ways to talk to her about what the hell is going on?
    or what i should do work wise?

    My parents got divorced when I was young, but both remarried. Honestly I think I was to young for me to really be influenced much by it. All I knew growing up is that they never wanted to talk... including arranging visitations.

    I think the situation would be different for your sister though. She's older for one, and she probably has a better idea of what is going on. Just call and talk to her. She probably already knew they were fighting and she might even appreciate them getting divorced if it means that she won't have to listen to them fight. Sometimes it's more comfortable to be with parents separately than together if they don't get along. Either way, it's your parents child and they are capable of taking care of her financially. Right now what she probably needs most from you is emotional support and you can do a lot of that via telephone.
    Don't you ever sleep?
    Not at night...that's when the stars have rather better things to do. They're coming out, shining, that sort of thing.

    I agree, make yourself available to your younger sister. She may want to know you're there for her to talk or whatever.

    I don't know where you live or where you're from, but if you're good enough, you can work your way back home and collect base pay from the clubs that offer it, and just save up that money and live off your tips.
