When they went to work i get left with my elder brother who is 17years and my little brother who is 11years. I hate being left with them because they do nothing to help around the house..i get to do the whole house work alone and then cook supper for mom and dad. All they would do is watch tv, play ps games or go out with their friends leaving the house untidy. Their rooms are a mess because they don't even bother cleaning them. I tried telling mom and dad about this and it ended up being a helpless conflict. I hate at home, sometimes i would cry alone in my room thinking about the pain i have. I love my family so much but i just hate feeling like a maid in my own home. Please help me, i need your advice. Reply to this Question

 Why do YOU have to do this?
It sounds like they are taking liberties of your helpful nature.
Stop doing it see how they like not being tidied up after.
By doing without any payment or appreciation you are letting them push you over! Refuse to do anything, cook for yourself and tidy your own room.
I understand cooking once/twice a week for the family and sharing out chores, but doing it all yourself is just unacceptable!
