[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You don’t like her, OP. We get it. [/quote] It may not be about not liking her but the child doesn't live there and is a visitor. Child is there to spend time with Dad, not babysit and depending on her mother, OP may get an earful. I didn't let my husband's kids babysit. They are there to spend time with Dad, not be our child care. Same for friends teenage kids who visit now. Those kids offer but they are there to spend time with all of us, not be babysitters.[/quote] A child shouldn't be made to feel like a visitor in their family home, even if they also have another family home. When there's a non-routine situation, like a preschooler home sick with a mild illness, then it's totally reasonable to expect a teenager to step up while their parent runs and errand and picks up another sibling.[/quote]
