So, she knows that she can travel for a while and still afford everything she wants. Since her parents keep bringing up her finances and attempting to guilt-trip her into staying, though, she has started to get nervous.
Just yesterday, the entire situation came to a head, too. Apparently, her sister called her out for being a jerk in front of her entire family since she would no longer be able to babysit. Her sister also asked what they were supposed to do on the weekends.
At that point, though, she had enough and wound up screaming at her sister to “finally hire a babysitter.”
But unfortunately, her parents did not really agree with her perspective. Instead, they took her sister’s side and claimed that she needed to help out more.
So, she ultimately yelled at everyone and told them it was not her responsibility to parent her niece.
“They could live for a few weeks without their free babysitter,” she vented.
After that, she just left. And later, she heard from her brother that her parents and sister were still really angry with her and disagreed with her decision to go on the trip.
So, even though she believes she made the right decision, she has still been left wondering whether choosing to go on her trip instead of staying home to babysit her niece makes her a jerk or not.
Do you think she should feel bad about going away on a trip she saved up for and paid off already? Is it her responsibility to care for her niece whenever her sister wants it? Why do you think her brother is the only person who sees the big picture? If you were in her shoes, would you still go on the trip?
