Talk to your parents and tell them that you'd like to have a Family Meeting. Explain that you'd like to talk about some of your responsibilities and the expectations of your brothers and sisters, when you're put in charge.
At the family meeting point out the issues that you have and have some solutions. For example: 'Mom and Dad, when Maria and Alex yell and scream, the others join in and it gets too noisy. I suggest that you explain to them that I have been left in charge and that they are to behave themselves, since I will report what happened.'
You have to behave too, since the siblings would report if you were not responsible.
Note a couple of rewards for your responsibility, like phone time without interruption from the siblings, X hours at the mall, etc.
If you have a plan of attack and present it, that would be better than just complaining about the problem.
Good luck!

Talk to your parents and if that doesn't work speak to your counselor. Tell them you need at least every other weekend off. I was "stuck" babysitting when I was younger but I wouldn't trade the closeness that I share with my siblings. But yes, I missed out on alot and grew up way to fast. Good Luck

I know that you cannot see it now but if you continue on with these responsabilitys you will reap the rewards one day and the freedom you think that you are missing out on will come when you have the capacity to enjoy it.
Happy New Year!
Take care!

HEY GIRL, MY FAMILY WAS JUST LIKE THAT WHEN I WAS YOUNGER.I DIDN'T DO TOO WELL IN SCHOOL BECAUSE OF IT.SO PAY EXTRA ATTENTION TO THAT ALSO GIVE RESPONSILITIES TO THE OTHER CHILDREN,MAKE A LIST A HUGE LIST SO EVERYONE CAN SEE AND KNOW WHAT TO DO GIVE TREATS IF THEY DO THEM WELL ASK YOUR PARENTS TO HELP YOU WITH THIS.IF YOU WANT TO THREATED BETTER BY YOUR SIBLINGS YOU HAVE BE STRICT WITH THEM TREAT THEM LIKE HOW YOUR TEACHER TREATS YOU BUT WITH A SPRINKLE OF SISTER LOVE.DONT WORRY ABOUT FRIENDS YOU CAN INVITE THEM OVER TO JOIN YOU IN KEEPING YOUR SIBLINGS IN LINE.IT MAY SEEM LIKE A DRAG BUT I HAVE GAINED SKILLS TO DEAL WITH THE STRESS OF MY OWN FAMILY AND WORK.DONT WORRY IN TIME YOU WILL BE GLAD YOU HAD THE EXPERIENCE SOME PEOPLE WOULD DIE TO HAVE.

You are entitled to some freedom as well. Just tell your parents about your brothers behavior.
