Sorry, but I need to vent 
I moved back home while I was going to my local community college until I could get back into Kansas University. My sister and her family moved back into my parent's house because they couldn't afford to pay for a place to stay while my niece went through chemo and recovering from brain cancer. It'd be fine, but my sister has absolutely NO common sense. She thinks nothing of things that would make people say "WTF is wrong with her!?
I was counting down the days until I could move out once again and get out of that toxic house. My mom started getting really annoyed with them living at home and started "pushing" them out. They are moving out soon.
My parents came to me and asked if I would stay at home and drive the 30 minutes to Lawrence to go to class and live at their house while they're in China for my dad's work. I was planning on getting a job and taking out a loan for a newer car, and my parents offered to pay for it if I stayed at home. SWEET. No sister's family, a new car, and no rent to pay.
As I walk in the door tonight, my sister asks if I can pick up my nephew from school 2 times a week until they move out because they can't afford to pay full time day-care for after school. I thought "ok, that's like what? 2 weeks until they move out? sure." Then she tells me that they're not moving out until December 5th!
First, it was mid-October, then it was November 13th, and now December 5th. I agreed to stay at home on the pretense that they would be gone, and I will be completely pissed off if they're not gone by next semester.
I can't stand them anymore and I can't even enjoy being at home. I go to class, and when I come home, I lock myself in my room to avoid contact with my nephew. He's family and I love him, but DAMN, there isn't a day where I just feel like snapping. He wants to fight me ALL THE TIME. Every time I see him, he's punching me and trying to climb on me. Discipline doesn't work with this kid, because his parents aren't good at that. If he's not beating on me, he's telling me he's going to beat me because I'm a wussy. This is a 5 year old kid talking like this. I wish I could be the fun-loving uncle, but I feel like I'm the one disciplining him all the time.
If anyone actually read that
any suggestions on what to do with this kid until they finally move out?
Until then, I'm going to pop the top off of a few beers and enjoy my time locked in my own room
