I don't know what to do!
I am a 27 year old female and I have lived with my mom all my life because I can't afford to get my own place. Its really getting on my nerves because my mom has been raising my niece and nephew since they were 3 and 5. My nephew is now 13 and my niece is now 15. My mom ha full custody of them because my sister was found as an unfit mother. The problem is that we live in a 2 bedroom house with one bathroom. I share a room with my niece. I have to share my closet with her but info try to put my stuff on her nightstand I get yelled at by my niece and mom does nothing when I tell her what's going on and takes up for my niece. My nephew is always yelling at me and yesterday hi tried to explain something to him and he yelled at me and clapped his hands in ny face and mom took up for him and when I told my step dad and he got on to my nephew she yelled at me. I am sick and tired of it.

It sounds like your in a no win situation living at home with your mom. For whatever her reasons are she is supporting her grandchildren over you.
You say you can't afford to move out. I am assuming this means you cannot afford a place of your own Have you given any thought to sharing an apartment with roommates. There are agencies that specialize in finding roommates that are compatible. Everything is shared, the rent, the utilities and household chores. Each roommate generally gets their own room. The rent becomes less expensive if roommates share a bedroom. My wife shared a 2 bedroom apartment with four girls. They all worked for the same airline and it was rare when more than 2 were home at the same time.
Then there is also the ability to rent a room someplace. This is generally the least expensive and usually comes with kitchen privileges if not it can become more expensive as you may have TO TAKE YOUR MEALS OUT.
The only solution to your problem is to find a way to move out of you moms house. You're in a two bedroom home with 3 adults and two children of opposite sexes. There is no way a 27 year old should be sharing a room with a 13 year old. Both of you need your privacy and it sounds like your niece is taking hers regardless of how you feel.
You don't say if you are working. IF you are there should be a way for you to move out. Try the suggestions I made above. I'm certain you can find an economical way affordable to you.
