Would you kick out a member of your own family?

Here's the story. I moved in with my brother and his family in January. I had a job for four months and then quit because my boss was a control freak and called me a name. Sorry, but I won't work with someone that disrespects me in that way. Anyway, I've been trying to find a job without any luck. I did find a part-time job but I only work weekends. My rent is $70 a week. I'm low on money now and can't pay the rent. I know how my sister-in-law is. There is a good possibility that she may kick me out if I don't give her the rent by Thursday.
What do you think?

I would kick a family member out, but it would have to be more than just not paying their part of the bills. If I were you I would take on extra cleaning duties, it may not work but atleast she will see that you are trying to help out. I would also pay as much as I could and ask her if you could do chores to make up the difference.
If she accepts this you will need to get the agreed upon duties done within the week so that if you have to do the same type of negotiation she can see that you really mean it.
