I would never hit you missy, I am here to protect you and well... maybe get you into trouble... but that's another story.
and if your brother needs a baby sitter just tell him you cant cause you've got no time to spare cause clockwork keeps stealing it.

1. Listen to the request respectfully. Do not interrupt the speaker.
2. Phrase your "no" as simply as possible. Keep a lid on your temper, but be straightforward. When you say no say it in a deep voice to sound more straightfoward.
3. Know if there's a specific reason for your refusal, offer a concise explanation.
4. Understand that if the person does not want to accept your answer, tell them that your mind is made up and that you will not change it.
5. If, after all this, you still give in, dodge. I'm going to hit you over the head.

you have a life too. Are you getting paid for babysitting the youngsters? Maybe it's Worth it to hang out with your niece or nephew. Weigh the pros and cons and take a stand for yourself but you already agreed to do it this time so don't back out.

Be stern and just say it. There is no trick to it. Once you say it the first time it will be easier the second. Of course it will hurt feelings but it is better than being used as a babysitter all the time. I am sure you have a life to lead to..

That ones real easy. Either tell him your NOT available, that you've already made other plans....or that he's gonna start paying you TRIPLE the price over regulars sitters. Let him know that just because your family, you have a life too. You weren't placed here to be at his beck and call as a sitter.

Yes, tell him you have electro-shock therapy scheduled to reduce the inflamed goiter that's causing you to limp. If that doesn't work, tell him you'll be available once you figure out how to add the headlight fluid to your car so the lights will work at night. Or, just NO!

I just say 'no'. If you can't do that, maybe next time he calls, you can wander into the bathroom and flush the toilet. He may suddenly forget what he was going to ask and excuse himself from the conversation...

say oh yes bring the baby over. I've got a live crew coming over we're going to party loud music, drinking, might smoke.
NOT he will respect you more if you say, hey you and your wife, gf or whoever had the baby, did the crime now do the time.

Open your mouth wide, shaping your lips in the shape of the letter O. Put the N sound infront of the O and you have NO!
