Dear Queenie,
My sister lived with an abusive man for a couple of years and then she left him and came to live with me. She was in pretty bad shape when she came to live with me but gradually she got much better.
Recently I found out that she has been seeing this man again but she never mentioned it. I haven’t told her that I know about this, but I am afraid she will go back to him.
Queenie, should I tell her what I know and what I’m afraid of? I don’t want to make her mad at me.—Worried sister
Dear Sister,
Ask your sister calmly whether she is seeing this man again and tell her how glad you have been to see her so much happier without him. You might even suggest she get professional counselling before making any further decision about him. Other than that, there is not much more you can do.
