Forced to serve as free childcare

Recently due to legal issues that my parents are facing, they have moved themselves and me (F16) to the Cayman Islands to live with my half sister.

This sounds fine but they have taken me out of school and I can't go to school in Cayman as we are on tourist visas. My half sister, who I'm living with is an evangelical christian and has two children twin 3 year old girls. Everything with her is about God, her husband (that is a whole other thing but she is super obsessed with him in a way which an adult woman should not be) or her children.

Yet despite this, I am made to do 90% of the childcare. Because I don't do school or anything else during the day, she has decided to force me into looking after her children whenever she wants a break which is basically all of the time as she uses her pregnancy as an EXCUSE.

I don't get a break ever and none of this is my fault, unlike her who willingly chose to get pregnant. I can't even properly reason with her as she is autistic and can't really be reasoned with on a lot of issues and doesn't understand how to hold a conversation properly. Even my mother who is a huge advocate on abortion gave up arguing with her on it as she cannot be convinced to change her mind on certain things.

The kids aren't that bad and are quite sweet most of the time but I just want to not be serving as an unpaid parent while their actual mother has a breakdown because her husband won't answer her calls while he is at work.

Sorry for ranting I just am fustrated at my current situation and wonder if there is anyone who has had a similar experience or can offer advice on how I can bal privacy and doing childcare

EDIT: Cayman Island is an Island of about 80,000 people. We live in an exurby area which needs a car to go basically anywhere. I can't really go anywhere and I cannot leave the country for actual civilisation. It's not like living in a town in the US I can't just move out

Guillaume has done The floor with Cyril Féraud

Cyril Féraud was particularly embarrassed, this Monday, October 3, 2022, during the totally lunar response of a candidate of his game Slam, on France 3.

A confusing answer... Cyril Féraud animated a new issue of Slam on France 3, this Monday, October 3. And the least we can say is that the presenter did not expect to live such a show. He first had the surprise to receive the visit of Vincent Dedienne, the comedian having come to keep company to a candidate of the day. But the host was also very surprised by the proposal of another competitor, named Guillaume. The young man’s offbeat proposal to an enigma hidden in the crossword grid actually caused a moment of embarrassment on the plateau.

The big discomfort of Cyril Féraud!

In the second round, Guillaume tried to guess a word of eight letters and had, to help him, the enigmatic phrase: "Animal who lives among us". But against all odds, in a sequence spotted by the Malaise TV account on Twitter and which already arouses a lot of reactions, the candidate proposed: "foreign". An answer that has a little trouble sticking with the clue at the bottom of the screen. A long discomfort then settled. Cyril Féraud remaining immobile, straight as an i, for a few seconds, making big eyes. Guillaume, meanwhile, realizing his stupidity, shook his head, struggling to find a justification for this surprising release: "No, I... Uh... This is the only word that came to my mind," he stammered, while the presenter relaxed the atmosphere with a little joke: "I know for whom you voted in the presidential election," he said

"Shame, I'm good at zapping I think"

A trick that worked, the public laughing, while the unfortunate candidate was still looking for excuses. "Wilhelm, there is no problem, you do what you want..." added, always hilarious, Cyril Féraud! ""Shame, I'm good for zapping I think," Vincent's challenger noted. What the presenter could only confirm to him: ""Ah there, for 15 years! As for the word that had to be guessed, it was Mistigri"Mistigri"...

Is there anything I can do to grow more?

As you can see, my mothers height genes seem to be stronger than my fathers.

I play rugby and eat quite a lot of calories but is there anything else I can do to get taller?
