Babysitting or Parenting?
Our story begins with a woman picking up her brother and his friends from game night. One friend, J, complains non-stop about having to ‘babysit’ his own child. The woman and her brother finally snap and call J out on his behavior. After dropping J off, they receive a call from another friend, E, who says they were too hard on J. The woman and her brother discuss the situation and realize that J’s constant complaining about his wife and child has been an ongoing issue. They decide that J needed to be called out, and it seems their words had an impact, as J started taking on more parenting responsibilities after the incident. So, were they too harsh, or did they do the right thing? Let’s see what the internet thinks of this situation…
