[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are exhausted more money will not fix that.  Do you want more money or less time looking after this child. Figure that out before you talk to them. [/quote]

This! To me it seems like you are starting to suffer from some caregiver burn out. Totally understandable, but  more money is not going to change your duties or lighten your load.  I do think it's fair for you to ask for a  raise , but this isn't a situation of job  creep and your family  taking advantage of you this is the reality of the job caring for this child.

If it were me, and I am not you I would request more time off so that I could  recharge more frequently over more money.

As pp pointed out with their child's medical expenses they may not be able to afford a raise and keep you full time.

Actually going part time might be a great solution some insurances will cover  at least in part care by a nurse.  They coul have a pediatric RN or LPN come in part time  nd have you the rest on the time.[/quote]
