Do you think this teen is in the wrong, as opposed to her dad?

Asked by longgone (19541points) August 8th, 2015

My dad lives a 15-minute car ride away. By bus, the trip takes about 40 minutes.

My teenage sister (Rae) sleeps at his house twice a week. My dad fetches her, usually. However, he’s been wanting her to take the bus recently.

I’m not sure who I agree with, and I’m being asked by both. On the one hand, my dad works a lot and spends hours in the car every day. Then again, Rae takes the bus to and from school, an hour in total every day, and she doesn’t get chauffered around much.

Thoughts? My default setting is siding with Rae, but I’m not sure I’m being objective.
