What the crap is a box elder?  An old guy in a box?  Lock your door, maybe.  Or a sign saying "no box elders allowed (whatever they are)"\n\n\nOk, thanks for clearing up the confusion about what box elders are.  And the confusion regarding whether or not Eye Doctors are hot.  You're obviously a very bright girl.  Need anyone to examine your eyes?

Tell them you have to go somewhere. They will get the hint! Also, this really works, so don't laugh. If you stand a broom with the bristles up, right beside your door, it will keep away the people that you don't want to have at your house. :)\n\nBlessed Be!

Keep them away from the curtains.

Tell him to STAY out the next time he leaves...  that way you can have a more stable life for yourself & your kids.

Talk to your parents, if he is really a bother they should do something about it.  If he's younger than you and just a "normal little brother" kind of annoying, try spending some time with him when you are free.  Play a game, take him somewhere fun.  Then maybe he'll respect you when you tell him to leave you alone.  If he's older than you and just won't leave you alone, try embarrassing him when his friends are around.  He'll learn to leave you alone.

just get a a cardboard paper with adhesive glue (the kind used for building) put it around your room, but be careful you dont march on it!! once people's feet get glued to the cardboard a couple of times they'll stop disturbing you!

Since you already have some real answers, I can't resist.\n\n"Turn off the light when you leave the room!"\n\n -- My dad

Just say, "well I hate to be rude but I think we're gonna have to get together another time I have some personal errands to run or I have to get some sleep". Tell them you'll call them tomorrow as you stand up & start walking to the door. Or you could scream there's money falling from the sky & slam the door behind them & lock it as they run out. heehee...best of luck to you!

its hard, i know i am the oldest and i have one sister and one brother and we all have behavior problems. The best way to deal with it is to make up some time just for yourself. Since you live in tight quarters it doesn't have to be inside. ask your parents if you can take a walk every day like before or after dinner, even if its just around the block. it gives you some time with nobody else to sort stuff out in your brain. You also gets fresh air and its good for you. It sounds stupid but it really works trust me!

Stop going where they go. \nMove to another town. \nHide under a big rock. \nBecome a hermit and never go outside.\nRun away screaming whenever you see them.

Avoid when possible.\n\nWhen you can't avoid, just use basic manners and be polite. It's not like you have to live with the person and share a bedroom. If you're basically polite you can tolerate anyone for an hour or two.\n\nKeep it in perspective. No one will die if you have to associate with an idiot for a short time.

I had a similar situation with a brother-in-law.  To save the family embarressment I told my husband and since then he never leaves me in the room alone with him.  Ignore the advances or if they get too bad, just say no.

What you need to do is kill the first one that knocks on your door after 8pm.  Nail the body to your front door.  This will act as a deterant to other, would be callers.\n\nYou might, however, find that the police may get you out of bed, following complaints from neighbours though.
