What Parents Need to Know

About Sister, Sister

Parents need to know that this series, now in syndication, began with the sisters as young teens and ended six years later with them in college -- which allowed episode topics to gain some maturity over the years. The list ranges from divorce, dating (both parents and kids), and break-ups to skipping school, learning to drive, and first jobs.
