[quote=Anonymous]Regarding Mel and Becca, I was just thinking about the full burden of being Becca's caretaker and how unequal it makes their relationship.

Mel has probably never really dated as an adult. She's likely 28 or 29, but she's been in med school and caring for her sister her entire adult life. That doesn't leave a lot of time for much else. She has a serious job and an adult dependent. It's a really heavy life.

Becca must be around the same age, but because of her ID, she doesn't work. Her life is mostly leisure, whether at the daycare or with Mel. And now she's in a relationship and has a sex life.

I'm not suggesting Mel is jealous of Becca, I don't think that's the right word. And Mel clearly loves Becca and I don't think would allow herself to feel resentful towards her. But I just really feel for Mel. There is so little left for her. That's no way to live. I just want a lot more for her. I want her to have a boyfriend and a sexually-induced UTI! Not spending a national holiday in a deposition for the stupid measel mom case and having to worry that her dependent sister might get pregnant or contract an STD at her daycare facility. Free Mel![/quote]
