Their mom is really not doing well, so her husband and her are doing a last ditch effort and going to a two month long treatment in Canada. The 14M kid is a really good kid, I'm not too worried about taking care of him. He is very solid and mentally stable for his age, but I definitely will be there for him anyway that I can. It's the 12F kid I'm worried about. I know she is having a really hard time with her mom's health, and is acting out in unhealthy ways.I care about the whole family a ton. I've known them for 4 years but my boyfriend has known then since he was born. I'm really worried about the 12F doing something drastic, like running away. Just see a lot of myself in her at that age, and I don't know how to properly help a kid who is struggling like that at all, other than just being there for her when she needs support and understanding. I still have to be the strict figure however (like making sure she cleans her room and does her chores, doesn't stay at friends houses too late etc).How do I be there for her and support her through this while still being a good parental like figure in taking care of her? via /r/Parenting http://bit.ly/2EyBXDz
