Her Parents Have Given Her Single Mom Sister Over $100,000, But Now She’s Angry That Her Sister Expects Her To Babysit While She Gives Birth
Have you ever been stuck working a babysitting job and felt it was low-key against your will?
A woman is refusing to babysit her sister’s toddler while she gives birth to another baby and feels they’re on the brink of starting a family feud.
She’s 32, and her sister, Sarah, is 39. Sarah has two kids and is getting ready to have a third.
Sarah has had an interesting history regarding the births of her children, as they all have different fathers.
Her first child’s father felt “trapped” and fled the scene once she gave birth. When Sarah desired another baby, she didn’t want to take the time to meet a new guy and see if she could fall in love, so she made a deal with a man on the internet and got him to get her pregnant, then sign away his parental rights.
Two years later, Sarah hooked up with a random man, which was how she became pregnant with baby number three.
“Sarah has always wanted a family but never settled down,” she explained
“Our parents have given Sarah over $100,000 in the last decade, as she chronically lives outside her means financially, even though she has steady employment and makes a very good wage.”
When Sarah had her second child, she had to stay in the hospital for a while, so she helped her by watching her eldest, which was pretty difficult since she worked full-time.

Two months ago, she lost her job, and Sarah decided to use that as an excuse to pencil her in to watch her toddler while she gave birth to the third. She broke the news during a family gathering.
She was taken aback, as Sarah never asked her to watch her kid, nor did she express any interest in doing it for her. Still, she knew she’d need her help, so she went along with the plan.
A few days after the gathering, Sarah called to confirm their babysitting and started unexpectedly implying that she wasn’t ready to take on her toddler.
“Sarah implied that I was incapable of babysitting her toddler at my own house as I don’t have any food and I wouldn’t be able to bath the child,” she recalled.
“I don’t currently have snacks for a 2-year-old in my house, but my city does have grocery stores, and my house, which I worked very hard to purchase on my own, [is equipped with] a functional bathroom, without a payout from my parents.”
After that phone call, she began feeling very angry at Sarah’s sense of entitlement, especially because she seemed to assume she was ready to cater to her needs immediately.
She got so mad that she eventually told Sarah she should consider booking a different sitter for her due date. Now, she’s worried that refusing to watch her young nephew will cause a lot of family drama.
Should she still plan on babysitting for Sarah, or is her desire to back out valid?
