Am I the A-hole for Leaving After 10 Hours of Babysitting Chaos?
So here’s the tea I agreed to babysit my niece and nephew, thinking it would be a chill day reconnecting with the fam. But plot twist! Turns out, there was a raging birthday party happening right outside the kids’ window! I stuck it out for a whopping 10 hours, even getting wine spilled on me by my drunk sister-in-law! When I finally tried to leave, she went full-on banshee mode, screaming that I was abandoning the kids! Like, excuse me? I never signed up for an overnight gig! So, internet fam, you be the judge… am I the a-hole for wanting to go home after all that drama? Let’s see what the masses have to say!
