First of all, you sound incredibly entitled to your mother’s time.

She does not have childcare responsibilities. YOU have childcare responsibilities. Do you even pay her?

If you can’t afford childcare, maybe you need to quit your job and take care of your own children. Your entitlement is out of control. It’s past time your mom stopped enabling you.

Op you need to hire someone for childcare, with a contract that outlines leave, etc.

Your mom is doing you a huge favor.
