Lets say your sister whos six years older than you got pregnant with a guy you told her to never hang around with in the first place. He dumps her as soon as he finds out and she wants to move back in with you and your mom. You only live in a 2 bedroom house and she wants YOU to give up your bedroom for her and her kid. What would you do?

give her the room. Your really going to hold a grudge? Isn't it enough that you were right and now she's having a baby.

I'd say since you are doing her the favor, she takes what she gets. If you have a guest bedroom, and it's not being used, she can use it, but set a time limit and tell her that at the end of (say 6 months) you both agree to revisit the arrangements and make changes as necessary. She got pregnant, she should live with the consequences (sharing a bedroom with her child and lots more). Good luck and God Bless.

However it all started, the end result is the same. She's pregnant and she needs a place to stay. Yes, it would be easy to judge her and to hold a grudge but if you really think about it, who are you really holding a grudge against? It's not the babies fault that your sister used bad judgment. Why punish it? At least with you and your mom, you know that your sister and the baby are being taken care of and will be healthy. My older sister never listened to me either. I could of stood on the rooftop and yelled that I told her so, but I just sat back and enjoyed the fact that I was right and she was wrong. Trust me, she already knows that she was wrong.

First, I would learn from sis's mistake and not do the things she's done.
Second, I would make darn sure that I had job skills to support myself; and if that meant living with my mom, my sis, and her kid, and giving up my bedroom long enough to complete my education, I'd do it. Then as soon as I was self-supporting I'd move out. And I would tell mom and sis that while I loved them, I'm not going to pay to support anyone's mistakes but my own. (And I would recognize that in saying that, I've given mom and sis the right to refuse to help me if I ever need help.)

Tell her that she is 6 years older than you its time she grows up and lives on her own and deals with her responsibilities.
Can't go running home to mommy every time you get in trouble. Why should you be put out because your sister "put out" to some guy and got herself pregnant and now apparently has no where to go. She should have thought of the future before she had her pants down. TSK TSK!

tell her that you are only doing this because you feel sorry for her and that she's your sister. Move into your mom's bedroom, and your sister needs to pull herself back 2gether and get a job or something cause we can't support her her enitre life.

She is still your sister and she is carrying your niece of nephew. Take that into consideration.
You're family and you all should help eachother out regarless of the situation. She needs her family now more then ever. Be there for her and the baby.

If you are under your parents roof it is their decision who gets the bedroom...sorry..but if your parents say it is your room...stay in it if you want to..but a baby needs a room..it being in an open room will be harder on you and everyone involved...sometimes we make sacifices for our family....some we DO NOT want to..I know I made TONS of them to please my family...I am no 51 and I stopped pleasing them and pleasing me instead 4 years ago...LOL.....

say flat out "No." Tell her to get a job and find her own place.
I did when my mean sister tried to putme out of my room when she got preggers. I mean, I love my nephew to death...but karma got the best of her.
So..the second I moved out to go to college..she immediately moved in my room! Oh well...I have my own place to live... :o)
so I was a little mean...sue me
