Heres a long story gone short. My dad allowed his half brother to move at our house. My mom accepted him in the whole family did. It was o.k. Five months have passed and that person is totally different.
He is very irresponsible , he does not think before acting. its a hassle with him living here.
He uses my computer without asking and burgess into my room whenever he wants to. He eats all the food not leaving some for me nor my sister ( we have to go out to eat). He wakes up late and goes to sleep late. He stays in my computer 24/7. I can't take food cause he will eat it all. He arrives at work one hour and a half late and he doesn't take in consideration that my dad got him a job. You could say that he is just plain annoying. My mom, my sister, and I want him out of the house.
But my dad won't do anything cause he gives him money for the rent.
And I can't take somehow ima be forced to move out of the house ( I am 17 and go to college).
What can I do? He is screwing up my family.

You need to hit the hardware store and get a locking doorknob for your bedroom... and use it to lock your stuff up.
Your dad needs to draw the line here... he needs to set a firm move-out date and then be ready to enforce it by putting the deadbeat's stuff out on the porch in boxes and then changing the locks. If he won't, your mom has to.
One thing that my sister did to get rid of extraneous freeloading relatives... she quit buying groceries, put a lock-box on the thermostat, and cut off both the cable TV and the internet service. Believe me... it will work.

Your dad has chosen his half-brother even over his own children. I'm wondering what on earth gave your father the idea of bringing him into the house in the first place. Their relationship must be a bit strange.
As someone else here said, your mother has to lay down the law to your father. It's up to her. I hope she does the right thing.

Your mother needs to put her foot down and inform your father either the brother goes or she does and she will be taking the kids with her. No renter in the world is worth all of that hassle.

Your dad is allowing this, so I say, the rest of you go on strike, no more cooked meals,laundry or house cleaning, he goes out of the house, or it will be the rest of you that will walk out, of course your mom would have to agree, for this plan to work,
He is paying rent with money your father pays him for working,so your father is getting some of his money back, sweet for him he does not have to deal with him at home

I would definatly sit down with your family and talk with your dad. Let him know your not okay with what he is allowing and tell him how you feel and you dont want to leave your mom and sister to suffer with him also.

Who has the biggest influence on your Dad? Whoever that is needs to talk to him and I would suspect that would be your Mom.
