So here’s a hypothetical situation for all of you out there.

Let’s say that, hypothetically speaking, you have an older sibling. While this older sibling of yours did not raise you, they have looked out for you for most of your life. This older sibling also eventually became your legal guardian for two years.

And then you fuck up in a sort of big way, but you’re now a legal adult.

In this totally hypothetical situation, would you say it’s messed up if this older sibling of yours grounds you? Like, I mean, come on! You’re a legal adult now! You’re too old to be grounded!

Your opinions would be greatly appreciated.

Well, after what you told me... I don't know, I think you're kind of in the right here.

thanks... though i kind of wish he hadn't brought this up this way. just... ignore him when he gets like this.

You know I'm here if you need to talk.

thanks. i appreciate it, but the situation's basically exactly like he says.

[and he wants the degree so... tough love, time.]

Well it looks like most people are backing you up here so at least there's that?

yeah... but even if they didn't, i probably wouldn't change my mind. and he's been playing pranks on me all week.

Yeah! That's your right as his guardian!
I didn't know it was that official!

i was, but that ended when he turned 18 3 years ago. i don't know why he brought it up

Oh
Well then...I guess he also can do whatever he wants?
But I know you mean well which is why I'm backing you up

no, i appreciate it... i just need to talk to him later.

Okay. Good luck. Let me know how it goes?

yeah, i'll let you know.

[he may try to quietly drop this instead]
