Asalaamu Alaykum Sheikh, How does a SOK deal with family members who don’t pray (or rarely) commit sins etc. I live with them and it hard to deal with it and stay patient when you’re around them and constantly in this environment. I want to move out when able but want guidance for them.What to do?

Keep advising them gently and make dua for them in your sujud, and Imam Ibn Baz said there is no harm in staying with them while disliking their sin for Allah until you find another place, as long as you are not being pulled into it. Your parents keep their right to kindness and patience even if they do not pray.
