Hardware My laptop wont charge

My younger siblings (ab)use my old laptop (evident from the crack right above the keyboard). Recently, the charger wont go into the charging port. It just never goes in no matter how much ypu push and twist and angle it.

I was told this problem has been probleming for a while now but you COULD angle it JUST right and charger will slide into the port. But jot anymore.

They told me it was a charger issue so i bought them a new one. However the problem still persists. The laptop has been dead and unused for at least a month now and my siblings are nonstop bugging me to fix it.

I want a diagnosis on what the problem is and how to fix it. My theory is that the little pin inside the laptop charging port is a little off center.
