As the youngest in the house, I try to balance school, friends, and my own life, but my older sister seems to think I should also take on the role of her built-in babysitter. When all I wanted was one night out with my friends before spring break ended, her demands — and my sharp response — turned a normal sibling disagreement into a full-blown family standoff.
