MY BROTHER THINKS I’M A FREE BABYSITTER FOR HIS 3 CHILDREN, WHICH ALWAYS RUINS MY PLANS.

After her brother, who is 23 years old, left his three children alone on her doorstep, the mother reported him to the police. When the brother got into serious problems, his sister was held accountable for destroying his life.

A 23-year-old lady shared on Reddit how her brother encouraged her to pursue a goal she had never considered.

The lady stated that her brother, 27, was the father of three children: twins, ages three and five, and a five-year-old. But without previously checking with his sister, he would always presume that she would be available when he needed a babysitter.

The 23-year-old revealed how her brother frequently completely ignored her plans and had her watch her niece and nephews. One day, her brother tried the same prank on her once more, but this time, she refused to give up. The brother didn’t think his sister had what it took to contact the police, despite her threats.

Why Did She Report Her Brother to the Police?

The 23-year-old’s brother contacted her as she was headed to her friend’s house on this specific day to let her know he and his wife made arrangements to drop the kids off.

The sister informed him that she had already arranged plans with friends and was not at home. She revealed, “He just laughed and said, ‘Sucks for you, then your plans are canceled.'”

Her brother’s disregard for her schedule and goals astounded her to no end. She persisted, though, saying she couldn’t babysit because she was too busy. Her brother, nevertheless, did not give up either. He promised to drop the kids off at her door and to charge her for any mishap that could occur.

The sister said that she was unable to babysit and threatened to contact the police, telling her brother. Her brother disregarded her warning, and a short while afterward, she received a notice from her doorbell, revealing her niece and nephews waiting for her outside.

She began to panic instantly. Luckily, her buddy consented to their turning around, and they let the other friend know they would be running late. She contacted the police on her way home, and she got there not too long after they did.

The 23-year-old supplied her brother’s phone number to the police and told them what had transpired. When the authorities called him, he didn’t pick up. Even when the authorities requested the sister to monitor the kids until her brother could get there, she refused.

Child Protective Services then seized custody of the kids. The aunt gave her niece and nephews her word that everything would work out and that they would get excellent care.

Following through on her intentions, the 23-year-old spent the night at her friend’s house. Her brother contacted her at around 4:00 a.m. and inquired about the whereabouts of his children. She responded that they were under the custody of Child Protective Services.

Her brother began yelling at her right away, but she interrupted him by reminding him of their chat and said that it was his responsibility that things escalated to that point.

It came out that there was more to the problem than first thought. Her brother and his spouse were accused with three charges of endangering the welfare of a child and losing custody of the children. The 23-year-old is currently being requested to take on the role of her niece’s and nephews’ legal guardian.

She consented to house them, but she only told her friends about it. But when her brother found out that his children were with her, he began phoning her and messaging her on social media, accusing her of ruining his family.

What Was the Family’s Reaction to Her Choosing to Call the Police?
The 23-year-old began to feel bad about the entire thing. Her grandfather was the only relative who agreed with her decision; everyone else accused her of severing a family without cause.

Although the sister was informed she could have “sucked it up,” she understood that for her brother to take her seriously, she needed to act. Above all, she wished to make it clear that she cherished being a babysitter for her brother’s kids.

However, her brother’s request for her assistance could only be fulfilled if it was made at least 24 hours in advance. All she wanted was improved communication between them and for her brother to show respect for her time.

The aunt cherished every moment spent with her niece and nephews and had no regrets about taking them in. She received assurances from commenters that she made the correct decision. The 23-year-old was informed by commenters that there must have been other things her brother had done since he would not lose custody for a single error.

People also brought up the fact that the brother’s decision to leave the kids alone at the door was his responsibility because the sister had notified him she was not home and had cautioned him about contacting the police. Because she looked out for the best interests of the kids, commenters thought she was the ideal guardian.
