My sister is 17 years old and her and my mother have been at eachothers throat for quite some time. Well last night as the fight started to hit the fan again they came up with a possible solution to their ongoing fights. My sister will be 18 in a month and she doesn't want to stay home anymore. My mother has given her permission to move out of the house to live with another family member for two weeks to a month to see if it will change things. I am a bit scepticle about the whole thing. I know that they have their arguements but is a seperation really what they need. Please help me. Has anyone been through the same thing to know how it turns out.

If she is going to be 18, then she can legally move anywhere she wants to.
Actually, this sounds like a great idea for both of them and maybe they will be able to get along if they don't have to live under the same roof. That happens sometimes.
How old are you? Is it really up to you to decide what is best for their relationship? Did they ask your input? If not, then don't give it to them. Be supportive of their decision - it may work out great.
Just because your sister will be living in a different household doesn't mean that she has been tossed out or disowned or necessarily done anything wrong. Just because your mom is willing to let her do that doesn't mean there is anything your mom hhas done wrong either.

Yes I have gone through the same thing my mom and sister didn't get along and my mom wanted her out . Things started to be a little better in my house once my sister left my mom then didn;t have my sister to no longer fuss with now that my sister has left I really miss her . I think you probably should talk to your mom and see what she says maybe the two of them need some counseling .

It might relieve things while your sister is gone but, when she comes back home I think the same things will happen all over again. Your sister needs to get a job and go out on her own. Maybe apart they will start to respect each other.

I was 17, I had my own job, car, and I had graduated from high school. My mom and I did nothing but fight. I moved out one day while she was at work. Didn't even tell her what I was doing. Just packed up my things and left. Never moved back home. But me and my mom, once she got over it, became the best of friends.

It's a great idea. Especially as a trial separation. it may make them appreciate each other or decide it's time to move on. Either way, it should help your sister grow up and for your mother to see her as an adult--both of which they sorely need.

Sometimes removing yourself from a situation is the best thing that can possibly happen. given the fact that your sister is almost 18 anyway, if your mother did not agree she could leave anyway.
Trust that you mother is doing the right thing and remember to respect and love them both.

The birth of Always Good. Madam, the troubles are really troubles, no doubt but madam, the troubles are the teachers of life. we learn more from troubles. you can believe the no man than yes man. no man actually giving guidance by opposing vehemently from there we are learning lessons. if yes man simply agrees where from we have no opportunity to learn lessons. @Asker, please clarify my doubts before closing or finalising the question. what is the meaning to this please. '' Both the troubles vanish as only diamond can cut a diamond.''. what is connection in vanishing troubles with diamond cutting madam? please do justice. @Asker: Thank you. I also thank Mr veers for providing link to substantiate his claim.

why its a good plan. your sister is 18 and wants to act like an adult she should be treated like one. let her start being responsible for her own actions. believe me shell be kicked in the ***. and besides wouldnt it be nice to have your mom back. than you have a place you can go to besides home. it will be fine.

OK, while she is out living with a relative, both you and mom secretly move to another state

It may do some good. A friend of mine did this. She moved in with her grandmother and her relationship with her mother improved immensely.
