My cousins [age 6 & 2] always come over and always ruin our house! It is VERY annyoying because they won't settle down for anything! They don't want to watch movies, they throw food ALL over, our backyard is filled with fruits and stuff so that's not an option, front ward is busy with cars coming and going, and the basement is filled with workout stuff and they could get hurt playing around there. Dolls and toys get ruined and so my sister gets mad because they all belong to her. What can i do to controle and occupy these kids while the rest of us try to enjoy ourselves?!?!?

simple stop trying to enjoy yourself and work with the kids they r probably tearing up and playing with every thing else in the house becuase they r bored since they can't play or spend time with u and if u really want to spend time spend the time with them go out some were like mcdonalds or to chuck e cheese or sit down tell them not to get up or a spanking will occur and watch a movie and do not let them leave the room that they r in and made a mess in to go to the next room until it is clean oh and also tell them that ur duaghters room is of limits and if they do go in there which they shouldnt tell them if u go in there that is her room so u must go by her rules thank u i hope u read wat u were looking for

For the 2 y/old try giving some paper an crayons, candy, some kind of craft to make him busy, for the 6 could be the same but is old enough to undesrtand if you talk to him.

A 2 year old will need supervision regardless - and not from a 6 year old. Are their parents having you sit for them, then if you took that on, its on you to watch them, or is this where they(parents) are there, and looking for some socializing, likea bbq? Then hire a 14 year old babysitter.

You need to have your parents step up and let them know what their kids are doing. Unfortunately there isn't much you can do about it at all. My cousin went so far as to steal my game boy when i was younger and her mom refused to even look for it since there was no "proof" her daughter stole it.
