family fued
I moved in with my cousin after I graduated high school and I lived with for about 7 monthis and for those 7 months my autistic cousin her son followed me around everywhere I couldn't even use the bathroom or take a bath without him beating on the bathroom door telling me to get out and that I needed to be around him.I could't even talk to my mom on the phone without him trying to talk to me and my cousin didn't do anything about it and when I tied to go talk to her about it she got mad at me so I moved out and then when I moved out she dosn't want to have anything to do with me anymore becouse I didn't let her son follow me around everywhere and now when I go to my aunts house her mom everytime I go to watch t.v my aunt tells me to go be in there with my autistic cousin becouse that's the only reason they want me there is to keep him from pitching fits what should I do?

It sounds to me like you need to sit you aunt, and your cousin down and explain to them that you understand her son seems to have some sort of attachment to you, but that doesn't mean that your his babysitter. As his mother, she should be stepping up and taking care of her own son, it's not your job. I know autistic children are hard to reason with, but she can't expect you to take on her responsibilities, and your aunt only bringing you over there to stop his fits isn't right either. Let them know how you feel about the situation, tell them you aren't going to come around just to keep her child quiet. He isn't your son, don't let them push him onto you. Maybe you could even find someone else inside the family who sees this the way you do, and bring them with you. It may help to have another person backing you up, you know? Like, your mom, or a sibling, or another cousin. Good luck, and I hope everything works out for you. If you need anymore suggestions, feel free to message me/email/IM me.
Again, I hope everything works out. <3
