I live in a 3 bedroom house with my parents, brother, cousin and boyfriend. my sister had a baby and works nights so the baby stays here to and sometimes my sister does,
me and my boyfriend got our own room, but when my sister says we sleep on the settee because I have the biggest room so the cot fits in there, my little cousin who is 7 got mentally abused so my parents took him in, so we turned the back living room into a bed room. my brother got his own room and my parents, it is so over crowed I cant even breath,
I am in full time college so I cannot get a job that will help me survive if I move out, my boyfriend cant work because he left school at 12 and these days you need qualifications. my brother did move out but came back because him and his g/f of 6 years broke up. ARGHH
what can I do?!?! I cant ask my parents for help because they have no money what so ever. I have been on the counsil list for a year but still nothing, please help

my boyfriend has broke his wrist 5 times and its shattered so he cant do normal "man" jobs like building and things, other jobs out there need qualifications, plus I live in a small town in wales and my boyfriend isnt from here os its harder

The FIRST question ... is why can't YOUR Boyfriend pull his own weight, GO BACK TO SCHOOL ... finish his education, and GET A JOB?
Next: Why are you with this boyfriend in the first place? What does he do all day (besides sitting on his rear)? You know, IF he wanted to ... he WOULD already have gotten UP, signed up, and yes, STARTED working on his High School Diploma at this time .. and be well along the way.
There are plenty of College Students who are WORKING, paying all their own bills, and yes, LIVING Independently -- I did it at that age (as a single woman -- no louses of 'boyfriends' at that time).
I've got to wonder also -- why so many children at such a young age ... because that is definitely putting a STRAIN on your parents at this time.
My only advice ... while in college, get a job, kick the Boyfriend to the CURB (until he FINISHES School and GETS a stable JOB), and save up to MOVE OUT .. and then do it!

My parents had a similiar situation once, they had my 3 younger siblings, and their kids, in some cases, step kids living with them, resulting in 11 people in a 4 bedroom house with 2 bathrooms. 2 out the 11 people with gainful employment, my mom did all the cooking and cleaning. One day, my mom called me, in tears about the situation and lack of help, I went over and helped her with the days chores then I sat down at her computer and created a chore list for her. Things worked out much better after that. People need a chance to get back on their feet, it is not fun dealing with it, but things will get better soon. Help your parents as much as you can, you will make think wonderful things of you.

If you are in college full time, you may have to wait til you finish before you can move out. And, what does this boyfriend of yours do all day long if he can't work?

How about you and your boyfriend getting jobs?
