[quote=Anonymous]I could have written your post especially about the part of the parents wanting to be off at the same time.  They would show up an hour late and not provide the basic necessities for the kids.  They also did not take very good care of their kids at family events.

My sister was asking constantly for babysitting.  She kept trying to lock our parents into a permanent schedule even though they were busy themselves and wanting to travel.  When we stopped taking their calls we knew it was time for the come to jesus conversation.

We laid it all out there and told them we were DONE being taken advantage.  If they could not afford childcare it was not our problem to solve.  We gave them 2 weeks to fix their childcare situation.  They were mad as hell but let me we tell you we were mad as hell too.

They found a solution.  They were forced too.  BIL took a shift working graveyard and guess what he got a nice raise.    If there is any overlap we might pitch in with advance notice.  Sister knows she better bring her kids to us prepared.  The last time she did not we did not watch her kids for a month.  At family events when their kids act up we tell them straight up to get their child to behave.

Sometimes you have to lay it all out there.  Entitled people choose not to take polite hints.  Treating them like children and giving them consequences is the only way.  [/quote]
