Babysitting Drama: Aunt Demands Payment for Babysitting Niece, Sister Retaliates

Babysitting can be a challenging and time-consuming task, but when it’s for a family member, it’s usually done out of love and support. However, one young woman (20F) found herself in a sticky situation when her older sister (27F) started to take advantage of her willingness to babysit her niece. After a year and a half of unpaid babysitting, the aunt decided it was time to ask for compensation. But the sister’s response was far from what she expected.
