This is happening as we speak.
My mom and sister are arguing about something that really doesn't concern me. I don't want to jump into the argument and try to defend either side, because I know I am going to end up in tears like my sister.
Usually at the end of an argument, both my mom and sister are in tears. My sister can get really crabby if I try to comfort her, she is really independent, so I always just go hug my mom, but I don't know what to do now, because I agree with my sister, but I don't really know what to do at the moment, I hate the sound of them arguing.
This is also kind of frustrating, because the letter I have been waiting for has finally come. I have been waiting for a month, and I have finally been accepted into this fine arts program, but now, no one seems interested in it.

Now my mom and dad are discussing the issue in the other room quietly. I can hear it all, and I think they know. Should I tell my sister what they are saying?

Thanks cookie =)
The argument is about my sister getting her drivers liscense, but my parents still won't let her drive alone, even though she only wants to go to a friends house, which is through a safe neighborhood and is a 2 min drive.

Firstly, congratulations on getting into the fine arts program! Next, your best option is to try to go someplace where you can't hear them, and share your good news some other time, even if its hard to wait. It's hard, I know, but it's the safestthing to do. A lot of what you should do depends on what the argument is about and how old you are and how old your sister is. Put on music, turn on the tv, call a friend, go out, do something, anything to keep from listening to the arguments. It's just going to bother you, and trust me, there's nothing you can do anyways. Sorry. Congratulations again, though.

No...learn this lesson now and it will save you much grief later in life...stay out of it unless asked and then try to see both sides. Do not be a tattle tale to your sister OR your mom. Other people will be in conflict around you all your life...let them come to terms with each other in their own way. It really is better that way.

No, stay out of your mother and father's discussion. Don't add to the problem, by telling your sister. Stay right where your at and let the grown-up handle it.

You should tell your parents later about your letter. But congrats anyway!

If it doesn't involve me, then I would just stay out of it.

I would take a huge, steamy dump in the middle of the living room to try and divert their attention.
