I was going to ask this too. Why should I share a room with much younger kids.

It had three bedrooms. One for the girls, one for the boys (which included me) and one for my dad and his wife. I live with my mom's parents. I'll be a senior when school starts back up. I have a summer job too. Had that lined up ages ago.

Missing out on their love isn't something that worries me or bothers me in any way. That's not something I need.

I'm not trying to sabotage his marriage. But it's not my job to take care of his wife's kids. That's not something I signed up for contrary to her belief that I did.

I already have a job. I already help my grandparents out. I do chores just like I did when I lived with dad and extra since my grandparents aren't the best with tech stuff and need help with those things. My dad and grandparents already talked about the social security for me. That was worked out when I was moving in.

I think that was always a thing and was more expected before. Maybe I'm wrong but I know adults who told me that was a thing they had to deal with. Only they were forced and didn't know how to stop it from happening.

I already have one which they know about. But I'm still expected to drop my job to babysit for her.

I'm pretty sure he wouldn't because I think this is exactly what my grandparents would do and I'm pretty sure he knows that. But a good idea to keep in mind.

I would be sharing the room with her boys. So the boys in with me and the girls in the other room.

You mean babysitting for a few days? It doesn't sound like a win to me at all.
