men, see as people dey dot out experience. me think say na only me dey face the same issue OP they experienced sha. though i have two siblings staying with me, by God grace i have find job for them, but i still finance above 60 percent financial expenses every month. the formula i use is i have called them privately that event will soon change, so they should work towards having reasonable saves and so. Me have decide not to form our elder brother is capable to do it alone. Op act wise, but don't use food as weapon at all, bcoz if at the end of the day, u could not achieve some of ur dreams due to overburdened from ur siblings u will have urself to blame. happy New month folks |

Hidemyface:I just change accommodation that's all .... At times, I maintained two accommodations, one for me and me alone .... and the second for them ....... Especially, if you are a professional student, they will disrupt your life plans and books unless they are also very serious about their school! |

It's good to support your siblings but siblings should understand that you deserve some space. |

Mine was that: my immediate younger one of 33 yrz wont show me respect, like washing one of my shirts when washing his. Even if I asked him to take money and buy food stuffs n cook, he will give an excuse. The annoying parts are: he tries to make himself better than me b4 my neighbours n others. He brings home girls. Is that not disrespectful? I got fed up and asked him to quit, since he was not humble. Though I regret ever saying that to him. But I couldn't bear it anylonger since he wasn't going to change. I hate it when someone who is supposed to show more respect is even embarrassing you b4 everyone. I love sibblings who are wiser. 2 Likes |

From the response here, it appears that a lot of people are inconveniencing either one of there sibling or friend... That is why they are indirectly supporting it. 3 Likes |

Ceasardgreat: Well... You are free to read meaning to my post as you wish, but it is the truth, I don't think it is selfish, and mind you, what I said is that you down own anybody any responsibility to take care of them, except the children you are taking care of. If you still think that is selfish I cannot convince you otherwise. 1 Like |

Family is family. Remember that. I suggest y'all sit down and lay down some rules. Living together with family can be fun even though it's neck breaking at times. The earlier you assist em find their feet the closer you are to your much needed privacy. Good luck |

Someone who keeps his fridge empty when he can afford not to, just so his siblings won't eat, isn't a kind of sibling I'll want to have, MBA biko! I don't envy your siblings at all. 2 Likes |

Hidemyface:nonsence don't try to use ur mother as an excuse.if want them to not say with u, look for an apartment for them also try to be paying the rent. As for ur mothers nothing will be best for her than helping ur siblings. The Bible also acknowledge this. If u love me feed my flocks. |

stuffs4me: Come and fire me na. for being 'wicked' ![]() But on a serious note, don't jump into conclusion. I still have half bag of rice that I bought since December last year which has not gone halfway and still struggling to eat cause I don't eat much, there is beans, oil, fresh tomatoes and pepper, condiments, a carton of noodles, potatoes, cereals, beverages and cooking gas. Nothing stops them from cooking and I restock my fridge with at least 20k for the month. Let me stop here cos I believe you get the point now. I have never asked anyone to help me take care of any exp. As human you get tired shouldering responsibility especially when you started it at a tender age of 17. I also worked to pay my way to get a degree. Like I said earlier, I pray for more grace and money in order not to complain. |
