My dad once again thinks i have no life. I have two baby siblings. A 2 year old boy named quinn and a 1 year old sister named toryn. My dad thinks that just because i am the responsible daughter in the family that i have to watch them. I am tired of it. They just assume i have no life and can watch them. I miss out on so much like hanging with my friends or doing homework. Last year it affected my homework so much that i failed two classes. And the funny thing is they dont give me anything for it. They hardly ever say thank you anymore. i am sick of it. They never listen when i say i am busy they just go "Oh Corey can watch them while we do this or that." I just look at them like "Why dont you ask me first" And when they do ask me and i say no they get pissed and in the end i still watch them. I need advise on what to do! I am just so sick of this!

Maybe you can ask your sister if she will set down with you and your parents and talk about your school workload and how much you need some time for yourself and how much stress the child care and everything else is causing you. Maybe you can offer for a couple ot times a week that are in line with your schedule. Good luck and God Bless you

That's too bad that your parents depend on you like this. Have you tried sitting down with them and rationally explaining your concerns? I was the oldest in my family, so I got to be the baby sitter myself. Is there another trusted adult that you can confide in that may support you while you talk to your parents? Like an aunt or your best friend's mom? I feel for you. If you don't want to talk to your parents alone then confide in another adult and let them help you. What you parents are expecting of you isn't fair. Good luck!

That really pisses me off when parents use their teenagers as ready made sitters too much.
If you wanted the responsibility of a baby, you would have had one yourself!
