Venting needed....

Okay so I just need to vent. Im currently 23 weeks prego I have 2 children and I have my bf, mom, and sister living with me. Im the only one working atm. My bf had a job but got fired for being late sooooo many times. which he should have not been because I waswaking him up every morning, cooking him breakfast, making sure he had work clothes, etc..He is not looking for a new job, nietherare sister and mom. I made and announcement last week telling everyone they need to find jobs or I will kick them out. They seem to be calling me out on my bluff because NO ONE IS LOOKING! My bf is always on his ps3, my sis is always on Facebook, and my mom is always playing games online. The past two months ive had to go and ask my dad for food because we had nothing. Also I work overnight as a security guard, I get home at like 630. it takes me 10-15 min to actually fall asleep. Then im up again at 8 or 9 for my kids because my ******* bf wont wake up for ****. If im lucky I get a little nap in the afternoon. im exhausted. Yesterday I slept for only an hour  (honest to god) because we had so many things to do. And when I was at the market I could barely stand. But these people don't understand how much I need them to start pitching in. I cant do all this by myself! Talking, Yelling, Crying, nothing works! How can  I get through to them?

You need to actually kick them out .... Your bf too . Then maybe they'll learn to appreciate u and actually help . I don't understand y u have to take care of 3 grown *** kids , when you have two on your own & you're ****** pregnant.  They should be taking care of u ! God bless u Cus I would've kicked them out a long time ago

Wow, yes I have to agree. No one seems to want to help or take you seriously and they seem to want to call your bluff. You have too much on your plate to have to take care of 3adults besides your 2kids and yourself. It's time to cut out the ones who aren't pulling their own weight! Good luck

Actually kick them out then..if they're already not pitching in to help then they won't be missed! Tell them they can come back once they find jobs and start acting like adults and helping you out and not just relying on you to pay bills and provide.

Don't cook meals foe anyone but you and your kids and just don't worry about any of their needs at all like their laundry or anything...and I would actually start kicking people out....I know they are your family but that's to much to have on your plate alone when your pregnant and caring for two other kids ......it would be different if they were at least trying .....hope things get better for you :)
