This Wolf fella sounds like a bit of a howler
His name is actually Ingolf but he goes by “Wolf”…
Uh oh.

My ISP is blocking that page as potentially dangerous. 🙄
Interestingly, when I try and upload it as a png, lemmy doesn’t like it.
its a png with a transparent background of a finger pointing at a pregnancy test.
Not sure why its being blocked.
Is your ISP from a deep red US state? It loads fine for me.
How old is wolf? Hard to keep a minor, all depends on laws at your location. But I have a feeling she’ll come back
He’s 21, born in Jan 2004. Sister is born in June 2008. They live in Maine. Legally speaking they could date since she was 14, Maine has a close-in age exemption when the older partner is less than 5 years older & the other one is at least 14.
Still a predator. Your sister is not adult enough to not get taken advantage of by this kind of freak. Your parents should step up but a 16 year old should not be with a 21 year old.
Yikes.
that is not an appropriate age 😞
Dating and housing a minor without parental consent are two very different things.
True. But our parents said let her be she’ll come back if she feels like it after they took in the news so…
Seems like parents are world wise. Good for them?
Sounds like the parents have decided they’re too old (or she is too old) to deal with this shit
Probably + they also like the guy + they hate drama.
Unless thats his real birth name anyone who goes around calling themselves Wolf is a headass no doubt. Also I have a sister that did this 15 years ago and its still ruining her life
Even if it is his birth name… If it were my birth name, I’d use a nickname
I would go with Woof.
Worf!

So… Call your parents and pass on the information. 5-7 minutes of work. Nothing too “mildly infuriating”. And I suppose you even know that Wolf, so there isn’t any problem at all…
someone shouldn’t have to handle the fallout for an action caused directly by someone else handing it off to them, when she could have easily sent that text to them instead. Sibling in this case is being used because sister doesn’t want to face the arguing.
Yes, and that is understandable. Siblings help each other.
I did. This happened at 2 am on Saturday. Took the screenshot that morning.
Uhh, he’s been inserted into the middle of the drama that doesn’t involve him. It’s at LEAST mildly infuriating. People making adult decisions should take responsibility for them.
She calls him “big bro”, and then calls him “mom and dad”
i love you, mom and dad!
Her syntax was just messy. Should’ve been “I love you, I love mom and dad”. That’s what was being conveyed.
Her lack of oxford comma disturbs me
The absolute degenerate
Maybe it’s just the dad in me, but just knowing that his name is Wolf, tells me this is a bad idea.
Man, if I was big bro I don’t know if I would be meditating. Imo, even if she ran, she should grow up enough to talk to them.
I hope he does. Sounds like she trusts him enough to consider his advice if he comes across as understanding and not as harsh as their parents.
Little Sis,
Since you want to act like an adult and live on your own, I’m glad to help. First step is you clean up your own messes. I will not be your middleman, not because I don’t love you, but because it is not helping you.
If you want to talk about all this, and how best to talk to them, I’m here for you. And please be careful, a lot of people who have done similar things at your age have later regretted it.
Love you, talk to you soon.
- Big Bro
She said she’d talk to them afterwards. The way I read it she just wants her parents to not panic because their daughter is gone. This seems reasonable to me.
She could call her parents on the phone and tell them herself, but she doesn’t want to because she knows it will be a difficult conversation.
Therefore she wants to put that undesirable conversation on bro instead, so she doesn’t have to.
Which does not bode well for her ability to succeed as an independent adult.
It’s not about being a dick because you think she’s making a mistake, it’s about both pointing out that fact of her avoiding confrontation, and helping her develop the skills for success. If she is not willing to work with him on that, then it’s a pretty unfortunate indicator of how this will all likely play out in the long run.
In other words, Wolf will become her new daddy.
Or shoot them a quick text. It’s easy.
she doesn’t want to because she knows it will be a difficult conversation.
That’s a lot of assuming. If we argue in her favor, then we might assume that her parents might not be the most receptive. This is a sensible assumption on her part. Any parent whose daughter is suddenly missing will be agitated. This state of mind is not conducive to a rational conversation.
So her reaction makes sense: She asks her brother whom she views as a good bearer of news to just tell their parents that she is fine, so they don’t go crazy. After they’ve calmed down, she intends to explain herself.
I think this is extraordinarily good thinking. Calling her parents immediately with the news that she’s gone will just end in a shouting contest. Not telling them at all is an undue burden on them and might have undesirable consequences like involving the police. This girl seems to do her best to have a calm talk. That’s way more than I’ve come to expect from adults.
