What if I don't want my family at my sweet 16?
Why don't you want your family at your sweet 16 party?
My family members steal money from me.
That must be tough on you. Can you avoid having them at the party?
My parents are out on a cruise which is convenient for me. But I'm pissed off because I have to take care of my brother and he annoys me.
That sounds like a lot to have on your shoulders at 16 years of age. To help prevent any chance of theft, ask people to give the gifts directly to you and then put them behind a locked door.
