What would I change in my life and would it really be worth it?

     This is a really hard topic because there are so many things that I wish I could have redone in my life. I think that one that would not just affect me but others in a positive way is not to have let my sister move back in. This sounds harsh and I do not mean to be cruel, but it would benefit everybody in so many ways. My sister married and had a child while she was living elsewhere. They fell on hard times and now they live with us and my sister had another child. I love my niece and my nephew but living with them is a pain. They are loud and disruptive and I am constantly watching them so they do not kill each other, not just my niece and nephew I might add. My sister is the main problem because she does not take care of her children and that adds so much stress to everybody else because we have to pick up her slack. She barely pays rent so we are in some serious debt and I am the one my mom talks to about everything. I have enough in my life and my mom adds to it, I do not complain though because she has to let it out to somebody or she will explode. Had my sister not moved back in life would be so different, so much easier. My mom would not be as stressed and could go back to work so we could get caught up. My dad wouldn’t have to pay for three extra people under his roof as he does now. My aunt would go home to her own house because she does not have to help with the kids and life would be so much better. Not only for them and myself, but it would help my sister as well. She does not have a very good bond with her children because she is never there for them, had we not been there, they would have had that bond. That and my sister would have more responsibility, I would hope. Last, I would be able to focus on my future. Having screaming children, and adults, around me constantly really grates on me. I have to worry about so many things other than what I should have to and it is a mess.
