16-year-old forced to share a room with 12-year-old clingy brother, Jayden, on family vacation, grandparents demand he get respect and space: 'He shouldn't be forced to play caretaker'

Teenage years can have an aura of nostalgia and childhood innocence in hindsight, but while someone is in that era, it's not all sunshine and roses. The 16-year-old in this story is having a difficult time at home. He's living in a mixed family setting, his stepfather has children from another marriage. His younger brother, Jayden, a 12-year-old, is particularly troublesome. He has developmental issues, he's clingy and can't understand basic social cues. 

They don't take family vacations often, but they planned one. Jayden and the protagonist were forced into sharing a room during the family vacation, and for the 16-year-old, it was his nightmare. Jayden constantly wanted comfort and to sleep in the same bed, but the protagonist refused. Things come to a head when his grandparents get involved and say that it's not fair he should have all this responsibility for his younger brother. Comment below what you think about the story and how the parents and grandparents handled it.
