| tired of family Sorry guys, I just have to vent in here. I just dont know how to deal with my brother. Hes 21 and still living with the family. I recently bought a house. I decided to take my mom to live in along with my bro because I know my mom wouldnt allow him to move away. Hes the baby in the family. Well the deal is he doesnt have to pay for anything, all he have to do is pay for his personal bills and half of the electricity. He is so lazy! He doesnt do anything beside his work, sleep and plays computer games all day. On his day off he just sleep and play games or even goes out with his friends. Whats even worst he'll bring them to my house to drink around midnight til morning. I'm not even surprise if some of them are under ages. They will make a mess in my backyard. What really pissed me off even more when I let my dogs out in the morning to play they will find foods in the grass or pavement that those idiots throw up on and try to eat it. I'm almost to the point to kick him out the house. I even tell my mom that she need to talk with him. I dont want to deal with him, because the first thing on my mind is kicking out of the house. I know that will hurt my mom because we're her only kids and she want the family to stay together. Shes willing to clean after him to make me happy. I'm trying to talk my mom out about letting him leave on his own. Maybe that way he'll learn about the real world. Gosh,the headaches I have to put up with my family. |

| I'm so sorry you are having problems with your brother And I'm really not sure on what to tell you to do as my youngest brother is 30 and my kids are just 16 and 13. But I would say that if your brother wants to disrespect your home like that, it might be a good time to "tighten the screws" on him and make some new rules. Afterall, it is YOUR home that you are providing a roof over his head. If you want no one there after a certain time of night, then tell him and if he doesn't abide by it, then you make them leave - tell them it is your home, you have to work the next day (or school or whatever you do each day) and you need your rest. As for the trash they leave behind, bag it up and then dump it on his bed - he'll get the hint before too long. If he wants to leave the trash behind, he can sleep with it! I know, this may sound harsh but drastic times takes drastic measures. Sending lots of hugs and prayers your way that you find the patience and strength to deal with your brother

| I feel ya, I also have a brother that is no good at least your brother works mine is lazy all around. And yes I did kick him out I could not handle it anymore. I would go into details but he was a headache and it would take to long to type it all and I would have a long, long post. So, all I can say is it's your house and you are suppose to feel comfortable in YOUR own house. Just let your mom know it's just taking a toll on you. And by the way I'm the baby of the family. Well good luck because I know you are in a VERY HARD situation you want everybody to be happy, but sometimes you have to put yourself first.

| I know kind of what you are going through. My older brother was SOOOO SOOO LAZY he didnt work for 4 yrs after he got out of HS. Bummed off my parents and all my mom did is yell and fuss at him but didnt stick to what she said. And bc of it, she was harder on me. And every time I out did my brother in something or finish something my brother just quit, my dad would rub it in his face. Which was not a good thing to do, but my dad dose not think before he speaks. You should feel relaxed in your home. I would set rules and if he dose not like it. Then there is the door. Youngest or not. He should clean up after him self and have respect you and not bring friend over late at night when y'all are trying to sleep. I know you are in a VERY VERY HARD situation and you want everybody to be happy, but sometimes you have to put yourself first. |
