I’m sick of living at home

r/

I have spent a considerable amount of time cleaning my siblings’ mess and doing chores. It got so bad, I started taking pictures of everything and then what it looked like cleaned. My mom would drag me back by my hair if I tried pulling the same stunt as my brothers by just saying no and fucking off.

Last year I only came home for two days per week for several months at most and for the first time my mom acknowledged how much I do. One brother still lives at home as I do currently and he periodically leaves baskets full of dirty laundry next to the washer, or used dishes in the sink. My mom has tried telling me before to talk to my brother about pulling his weight. I’m not his fucking parent, I’m his younger sister.

Just recently something happened that cemented the idea that he really is her favourite child. Now I’m planning to move farther away for my studies. I know I’m not crazy. My brother’s gf refuses to spend much time in our house and she’s fully backing me in my decision; even offered her home.

    If you have somewhere to go then move out. You are not a slave to them. Go live your life and be happy
