Advice to Ruby Cathy by Natalia Velazquez

Dear Ruby,

i am sorry for the loss of your mother. i have a sister who acts just like your sister, both of our sisters aren't good at showing there emotions. so when something tragic happens they keep it bottled up and try to deal with it by themselves rather than go to someone for help; and i'm sorry to say this but your father isn't making it any better by hitting you guys, it is only making your sisters bottled up emotions come out as anger. he is causing more stress on himself and your sister, they both need time to come to terms on how things are and adapt to the change of your mother not being there. i'm sorry that you are stuck in between two big volcanoes ready to erupt. all i can truly say is try to talk to your sister i know its going to be hard, but don't give up if she says she doesn't want to talk; then tell her how you feel and don't leave anything out, i'm sure that even though it my not look like it shes listening and by you telling your feelings she will realize she isn't the only one hurting and open up to you. remember everything takes time to so don't push her or she will rebel from you to.

good luck ruby
