I've been quite curious about this... How do you pronounce my username in your head? (: Can you try to type out how you would say it?

I pronounce it key-or-ee. Is that correct or close?

My best friend got grounded, she's going behind her parent's back to hang out with friends while they're on vacation. She told me she "doesn't care anymore," ...I get she's mad, but I gotta do something about it! Am I overstepping my boundaries?

You can remind her of the possible consequences of her actions---including the potential trust issue---but anything coercive in nature would in fact be overstepping your boundaries (this is not an "emergency") and crossing hers.

All you can do is tell your friend you think she's making a mistake acting like that. But you're not her parents. They need to handle this. You'll just become the "bad guy" if you get too involved in her problems.
