She’s Being Accused Of Ruining Her Brother’s Wedding Over Refusing To Watch All The Kids That Will Be There For $50
A 20-year-old young woman has a 28-year-old brother named Nate who is set to marry his 32-year-old fiancée Emily in one week.
Before Emily came into the picture, she was super close to Nate, but Emily changed it all. Now, they’re certainly not as close as they used to be, but they do frequently speak to each other.
As for how she feels about Emily? There’s simply no getting along with her, because they don’t agree on anything, really.
Anyway, back to Nate and Emily’s wedding. At first, she was not even invited to the wedding at all, because Emily thinks kids include everyone under 21, and Emily did not want any children at the wedding.
Since she’s only 20, she fell into Emily’s kid category.
She approached her brother about how hurtful it would be to not even get to be there for his wedding, and Nate was able to get Emily to give her an invite to just the ceremony. Not the reception.
Well, a few days ago their family got together for dinner, and Emily said in front of everyone that she wants to have a babysitter at the wedding for her guests who have kids so they can bring them without having them be at the actual wedding.
“And somehow, she mentioned that she would love for me and my boyfriend (20m) to look over the kids,” this young woman said.
“My bf and I love children, we’re actually studying to become a teacher and pediatrician. We were on board with it until we heard that we’d be watching 40-ish kids for six hours, and only get paid $50 each.”

She generously agreed to babysit if Emily would pay her $150 and her boyfriend $150, though Emily said she would only pay them $50.
Her brother piped up and revealed he already signed her up to watch the kids. He added it would “save them a lot of money” and that it was “too late for them to find a different sitter.”
Whoah, boy. First, Emily didn’t even want to include her at the wedding because she qualifies as a kid in Emily’s eyes, and now Emily expects this young woman to babysit all the kids Emily doesn’t want at the wedding? What a situation.
This young woman insisted she would not be babysitting the kids, and Emily freaked out on her. Emily called her “greedy” and a “selfish brat.”
Emily argued babysitting would be “practice” since this young woman wants to be a teacher and then Emily said she should be getting paid for providing that practice.
The icing on the cake here was Emily uninviting her from the ceremony for not agreeing to babysit, and accusing her of ruining the wedding.
Nobody in her family stood up to Emily. As Emily basically kept on yelling at her, the other people eating in the restaurant couldn’t help but notice what was going on.
In the end, this young woman and her boyfriend left after paying for their meals.
“I honestly don’t care about babysitting,” this young woman continued. “In fact, I would probably do it for free. My entire family knows this.”
Her entire family is upset with her for refusing to babysit, but she was only trying to stand up for herself and she no longer wants to put up with Emily’s behavior towards her.
