Let you sister know you will be there for her if she needs your help but just stay out of it. You have your own schooling and life to worry about.

It would be easy like that if my parents didn't bring me into it, and if I didn't share a room with her! My parents do nothing about her except insult her, and pretend like that is okay. My dad works 14 hour days, and my mom is recovering from breast cancer (and ignores family problems and pretends like the whole world revolves around her now). I am left living in a swill because I share a room with her (I think the mess in our room is due to lack of responsibility). I talk to my parents about the mess in our room and how I can't deal with it; they ignore me. I ask for my own room (since my mom's junk inhabits the guest room, she has her own room for her computer and bird, and shares a room with my dad) and I'm ignored. I CAN NOT STAND IT.
I know it's not my responsiblility, but no one is doing anything about it. My sister gets home at midnight, talks on the phone until 2 in the morning, and goes out with SCADS of men (18-25 year olds). I don't want her to come to me asking for money like a bum when I'm married to nwlinkvxd and living well.
