    I live with a really annoying cousin
    Ok so my cousin is 2 years younger than me and he acts like a little kid,he always wants to "play games" and I really don't want to play "toy story" or "superheroes" with him. I have gotten annoyed and been mean lately because I live with him. He is moving in a month across country and I won't see him in a long time.what should I say when he asks to play games?

    Why don't YOU come up with games to play or read books together (a page each) or create a bingo game out of posterboard squares and pennies, put together jigsaw puzzles. Be creative and enjoy this last month with your cousin so you both will have good memories.

    Here are six paper-and-pencil games --

    If you do well entertaining this cousin, it will help you when you start to babysit. You will already have lots of ideas in your head on how to keep kids happy and busy.

    Wondergirl has great ideas, I will add you won't see him for a long time, take advantage of this last month. Playing games is not the worse thing you can do with and for someone. You may be the annoying younger person in some instance.

    You are older, so indulge your cousin because its not for that long, and the years will change things. Play his games, make him happy and let him play yours, and you both can be happy.
