Should my mother be angry at me because I told her to care for her own child?

well yesterday i came home from school early cause i barly had any sleep at all and i couldn’t stay awake so i came home. When i got home my mom was asking my girlfriend to watch my baby sister and i got mad because she should be watching her own damn child but she always say “ she tired”, that not a excuse in my book. Then my mom got mad and took the baby back which made my girlfriend mad at me -.-

i thinks my mom didn’t have no right to get mad since it her baby

Answer #1

Well considering u r the child, u basically have no right ot tell her how to raise her other children. I do find it inappropriate if it is happening on a constant basis unless she works a lot, after all it does take a village to raise a child, its not easy

Answer #2

And y not just sit down with ur mom and talk about how u feel about the situation

Answer #3

OK, so if you just stayed in school, you would have avoided the pressures of being home. Pressures, You think its easy for your mom? It would have been easier if it were just you but now there is another and that could work the other way too. Be fair! Your only job is to stay in school and get an education and make the family and most of all yourself proud. Remember i said JOB. Not chore or help! And your 16 so looks like you dont have long again before you can go off to college! Hang in there and try to help out as much as you can. BTW…a day off from school to sleep does not include a friend!

Answer #4

If you are under 18 then she has a right too.

Answer #5

well my family don’t the talking type, and i consider a adult in my family.;.. but yeah she do it all the time and she don’t work

Answer #6

i’m*

Answer #7

If that’s the case then everyone shud stop enableing her

Answer #8

Shes your mom grow up your mom has been doing everything for you since you were born and you cant help watch your baby sister? really? Yes she has a right to be mad that you cant help her out for a little bit.

Answer #9

Nice

Answer #10

I dont blame them. This was none of your business. You’re not an adult. And if you were a mature adult you would know better than to get involved. She didnt ask you to do anything. Your girlfriend could have said no. You interfered and so they both got bad. Dont interfere next time and they wont get mad. And I find the irony of the situation absolutely hilarious. You think it’s ok to come home from school because you were tired (good luck telling a future employer you’re tired and want to go home) but you dont find it acceptable that your mother is tired (despite the fact she probably has a job and is supporting all of you).

Answer #11

She wasn’t even asking you to watch the baby anyway. What’s your deal?

Answer #12

hey bunny, if yu need to talk just im me on messenger k?

Answer #13

a day off from school does not include a friend? where did that come from?

Answer #14

How do you know your mom slept anymore than you? You bailed on your school so why should she have to stay and watch a baby 24/7? I think you really need to think about this at a different perspective. She just needed a little break whats wrong with that?

Answer #15

So yeah she should be mad.
