  1. Plan a speach to her, and tell her

    You will get a job and work hard

    You will keep your grades up

    you will share rent, and food expences as best you can

    and anything else you want to add. Show your family that you are responsible enough to handle it, and be as grown up as you can. make a good arguement.


  2. I understand your desire to move out and have a fresh start, but you're asking your sister to take on an incredible responsibility that it sounds like she doesn't want. My brother in law stayed with me for four months and it nearly broke our family apart. He tried to help by getting a job but then his school grades went down and we fought constantly... Just speaking from experience, wait until you can move out on your own, you'll be glad you did!

  3. Stay where you are and then move there for college. If she does not want you to live with her that is her decision, not yours. If you wait until you go to college, you can live on campus and work too and not be a burden to your sister.  

  4. Finish high school here first. Your sister is finally on her own and grown and wants her own space without little sister under foot, in her fridge, in her room or on her couch! Shes freeeeeee! No one will give you a job without a diploma unless its fast food or grocery store and if she doesnt like the idea now, she'll be resentful when you try to convince her. Also, you'll need your parents permission to drop out of high school or transfer to another and how are you going to get there? What about looking for someone who needs a roommate (you better have a job first) and start fresh in an area you know. After graduation, take off (plan first).

  5. Don't be selfish, she doesn't want you there, get over it.

  6. If she doesn't want you to move in with her, then why would you even consider it? let her live her own life.She doesn't want you living with her and it's rude to force yourself on her like that.

    If she says no, then leave it at that.

  7. im sorry but, your not gonna convince your sister to let you move in with her cause, she's 25 she'd rather be on her own.

    but, what you could do, cause you wanna start over. Try looking for a private school or boarding school or something.

    or you could get emancipated

  8. Hon,if your sister doesn't want you there then you ain't going especially if your parents do not want you to go.

    Next as far as working hard goes,let me tell you about that.

    You want to make enough money to have anice car, a nice place to live and  enough to pay the bills and have a little left over for fun things right?

    Of course you do.We ALL do.

    You can forget that though.

    Here is what YOU get without a college degree :

    A job with chaotic hours that pays barely enough to EXIST on and you get to drive JUNK,you get to live in a DUMP and pay your bills and hope to GOD you do not miss ANY work because you will end up behind in your bills if you do.

    You won;t be able to afford health insurance anyway.Those nice clothes?

    Not for you hon, go to the thrift store like good will and pick yourself out something used and nice.

    That nice car?You do not get that, you get to drive that piece of junk that  breaks down on you all the time.

    The apartment or trailer you rent will take most of your income especially the heating and electricity.

    You NEED to graduate high scooh or at least get a G.E.D. hon and then go to college so you can get a job that pays enough for you to afford a decent place to live, a nice car,etc.

    If you do not believe me, figure out 8 dollars an hr, times 40 hrs a week minus 1/3 of it in taxes etc.

    Then see what is left, then see how much rent, car payments,car insurance etc all adds up to.

    You won't have much of anything IF anything left hon.


  9. I think you should allow your sister to live by herself. She doesn't want you to live with her so I wouldn't push it. Wiat until you are 18 then move out!
