It feels good to vent doesn't it? How old is your brother? Sounds like he needs to mature A LOT! I would just avoid babysitting. You shouldn't do it if you don't want to. Then, make yourself scarce after you tell him no. I've had to that before with people who used me for my car.

You need to do what I did to my sister. She used to call and TELL me I was babysitting that night. Since I love my nephews, I would do it. But then she started calling and making plans in less than an hour...and made me drop my plans. Thats when many things changed. I announced in front of the whole family that unless she gave me 2 days notice, I wasn't available. Then I stuck with it. Even if she called me telling me it was an emergency, I didn't go. Usually her emergancies were a sale at Walmart.

Your time is more important than his drinking. Get the support of your parents. Say no to short notice and then don't answer your phone to him. He'll eventually get the picture.

"I told him no many times and he just still shows up at the house like are u ready "

You need to tell him no, and stick with it...I know its hard especially to the little ones. Tell your Mom you have plans for that night, and you need her help to stay with your decision. Once you tell him no, leave. Go to the mall, go to the library, go to the park.
