This 15-Year-Old Girl Is Being Forced To Take Care Of Her Sister’s Newborn Baby
A 15-year-old girl has an 18-year-old sister named Millie, and recently, Millie gave birth to her newborn son.
Her son is now about 6-months-old, and Millie has been a mess since she had him. After Millie had her baby, she stopped going to school completely and has been deprived of a social life.
All of this has negatively impacted Millie’s mental health, and Millie is no longer able to properly care for her baby.
In light of Millie not being there as a mom, her mom and dad have stepped in to raise Millie’s baby.
Millie keeps herself shut in her bedroom, and only ventures out of her room in order to feed her baby, but that’s it.
“Since my parents work a lot, I’ve been the one looking after my nephew after school and during the weekends,” she explained.
“I love him a lot, but sometimes it gets really tiring because, well, he’s a baby and he needs a lot of attention and things done for him.”
“It also means I can’t do any after-school activities or go out with my friends.” Well, a day ago Millie fed her son and promptly dropped him off in her bedroom.
Millie insisted that she needed to watch the baby, but she was in the middle of studying for several exams and she was completely exhausted.

She let Millie know that she couldn’t watch the baby at that time, and Mille wouldn’t take no for an answer.
She got mad at Millie, and she told Millie that she’s actually a bad mom and it’s not on her to watch the baby at all.
“I guess what I said really hurt her because she started crying, and then her son started crying and it became a bit chaotic,” she said.
“My parents came in and my sister told them I was refusing to look after him. My dad ended up taking him away because he was still crying, and after he left my mum began yelling at me for making them both upset.”
She did stand up to her mom and mentioned it’s not ok that she’s forced to take care of Millie’s baby while Millie does nothing.
Her mom accused her of being “selfish” and her mom sided with Millie since Millie is struggling and can’t be there for the baby.
She kept saying that she was no longer interested in having the baby dumped on her since she’s not the mom, but nobody listened to her.
Millie has not left her bedroom following the fight, and Millie now is declining to even feed the baby at all. “…My mum is blaming me because she says everything was fine before and now I’ve ruined it,” she continued.
“I feel really guilty now and don’t know whether I should’ve just looked after him.” How does this poor girl’s family not recognize that it’s not ok to dump a baby on her?
