Am I right to be annoyed.
Comments
-
So I was planning on a quiet night in with my boyfriend, I get my eldest sister come round with her two little girls, asking me to watch them tonight (She never asked in advance) She said "Oh I know you won't mind" and started to leave. I said that we might have been going out and she said "I know you'll change your plans for them" and walks off.
Am I right to be annoyed? I don't mind looking after them, but I'd like to have been asked.
So tell her no and in future to ask first if it really bothers you!Everything has its beauty but not everyone sees it.0 -
Be prepared for the s**t hitting the fan when the child-protection peeps make their enquiries. So soon after your falling-out is going to make it patently obvious who reported her to them.0

Better for the s**t to hit the fan, than 2 kids get neglected.
Op, what do your parents think of all this ?0 -
I've not spoke to my parents for years. I was disowned by them (long story). I only really have a relationship with my youngest sister.0

Just a bit scared I've done the right thing, My boyfriend says I have he says that my neices will get what they need and that I got it for them.0

You're doing the right thing. There's no reasoning with people like your sister.0

I think annoyed is an understatement
Is this normal behaviour for her/you?
Edit: didnt notice it was multi paged.
The follow up behaviour was even worse!0 -
Yeah, its normal behavior for her. To want to party and not care about anything else.0
