Del: 我现在意识到父母过去对姐姐非常不公平。过去，我享受着作为家里的“金童”的待遇，没有意识到这给姐姐带来了伤害。现在，父母年迈，母亲希望修复与姐姐的关系，但她不愿承担自己应负的责任，总是抱怨姐姐做得不够好。我希望能够以诚实和开放的态度与母亲沟通，但我不知道该如何做，因为她总是把责任推给姐姐。我决定站在姐姐这边，弥补我过去对她的亏欠。 Dr. Laura: 你应该直接告诉你的母亲，多年来你一直允许她诋毁你的姐姐，这是你的不对。现在她需要你的姐姐照顾她，但她却一直诋毁和虐待她，她需要向你的姐姐道歉。同时，你也应该向你的姐姐道歉，因为你过去享受作为“金童”的待遇，没有站在她身边。不要试图解释太多，用陈述句直接表达你的想法。
