Surrounded with problem family member

...See more I am surrounded with problem family members. * Husband: he goes find women frequently and drinks outside. He don’t bother about the household matter. He don’t care about the kids. He don’t know I know that he fools around. * Younger son: 13 years old. failed a 3 of his subjects. I confiscated his computer as he was addicted to his games. He stopped talking to me until today. It’s been 5 days. * Elder son: 15 years old. He values his friends a lot. But his academic results are bad. But he refused any help. Don’t want assessment books. Sent him to various tuition centres. But none fit. Recent one that he settled down with, he say the tutor has no problem. The problem is him. * mum: she refused to have a maid to take care of dad whom had fell recently and is not as mobile as before. But she is clinging on to anyone available to help her with daily activities like buying food, throwing rubbish. * Sis: she is working part time. But she will make sure that I, whom is working full time, to make sure I do my equal share in taking care of our parents. She stay near parents within 5 min walk. I stay away from parents that I need to take transport to visit them. Sis will calculate with me on the number of days that I need to take care of parents. although I’m working full time, but I’m not really recognised in my work. Everything is not favourable to me. nobody understands me. Me work is overwhelming. I don’t have people to help me with my children. I’m loosing grip of my own family. And yet sis is biting on my tails to take care of parents with her. She has a happy family. what should I do with all of them. Is it my problem or is it them? am I a failure? I wish I can disappear and don’t care of everything.
