Xabian,
my guess, dealing with teenagers and an incident that happened to my S14 a few years ago, is that D15 won't want to talk to school counselor. She should talk to someone, though, perhaps an IC. That said, it's good for school counselor to have an idea what is going on at home.

Under the best of circumstances being a teen is tough, so anything you can do to help ease the burden on D15 will be helpful. I probably don't need to remind you, but *never* speak bad about your W in front of the kids. No matter what happens or how they feel, she's still their mom.

Right now, it may be more important for D15 to live with you and feel comfortable than to be with her sister. You know her best, trust your instincts on what is best for her.
