Today, I was on the brink of moving in with my boyfriend of seven years. At the last minute, I was informed that his child hating brother would be living with us and our two children permanently. My intended job was to stay at home, cook, clean, and take care of all of them. FML

I don't like to sound judgemental and I really don't mean it that way, but having kids with a guy you don't live with is bound to cause complications. There is a reason why finding a partner, settling down in a home and then having kids is an established model. It's not the only way and it's not even always possible but it's popular because it works quite well and some issues like this are less likely to occur. I guess you just have to stand your ground because having the brother in the house is bound to cause a division of loyalty for your bf even before you factor in who is being servant to whom.

Well in the FML OP did say "our children" so I'm guessing their his.

Since they've been together for 7 years it's likely that the children are his, but they could be from a previous relationship/marriage.

#4 Not sure where you are getting your info from, but no one said anything about biological children except you. So maybe next time actually read the comment before you post? On another note, I do agree with you about following along with something just because it is the 'traditional model' being outdated and wrong.
