Answer

I think it means to not care enough to do something- to feel too lazy for it, for example. But let's wait for some native English speakers to respond :)

Answer

Correct- not to bother to do something literally means you weren't bothered (didn't care) enough to do it. So if I don't bother to call my girlfriend she might get upset.

Answer

To not want to do it, to not care to do it.  Could be due to laziness or just believing it is not worth it to do something

Answer

I think it means either don't even try doing something. Or it's ok you don't need to do anything/it.

Answer

bother means disturb or take the trouble
stop bothering your dad
