O Connor agony aunti completely agree with star - maybe its not her he doesnt want you to see but the boyfriend. he may have good reason not to like him and doesnt want you beign around him cos maybe he is a bad influence etc. tell your dad that you respect his wishes but that you would really like to see her just the 2 of you. maybe he would let you go to the cinema with her or out for dinner. and if he still feels weird about this he could drop you and collect you to make sure it is just the 2 of you.

i dont think its fair for him to keep you away from your own sister. wat does you mum say?

Hi

I think Star has the right idea. Ask your dad if you can see your sister in public and that the boyfriend will have no contact with you.

He may have very valid reasons not to like this guy, so tell him that you want your sister to be able to talk to you if she is having problems, or if he is being bad to her.

Good Luck!! xx

Star_07 agony auntTell your dad that you respect his wishes and that you understand that he doesnt want you to be around the boyfriend.

But, let him know that you wish to see your sister and ask if it would be possible to see her in a public place like going out to eat or a movie (without the boyfriend). Tell him that you miss her and that you would like to spend time with her outside of the house. You need your alone time with your sister, thats understandable!

So try talking to your dad about what he is willing to accept and maybe having your sister there with you to tell him might help.

Try to convince him that you wont be hanging around the boyfriend, it is not about that all!

Good Luck!
