[quote=Anonymous]I agree with the posts about encouraging a relationship between the cousins, and that watching nieces or nephews for a bit is not such a big deal. However: I don’t understand why they need an overnight sitter anyway- sounds like the reunion is in the same town that all of you live in? If that is correct, then I don’t see why they can’t get a babysitter and an Uber, like basically every other parent? It would probably be better for you to watch the kids for a few hours vs just jumping straight to an unnecessary overnight. I’d be more understanding if they were, say, going to a wedding or a funeral/family emergency 2hr drive away or similar. In that case, with an overnight stay unavoidable, obviously family would be preferred over a sitter. But in this instance, just why? 🤷♀️ Just seems unnecessary. [/quote]
