i dont even know if im being harsh or not tbh but im really annoyed today
my mum has just dropped my little brother (he’s 3) on me again with barely any notice, like a text this morning saying can i have him then just turns up anyway. ive got my own dc to sort out and its not like im sat doing nothing
bit of background, i mostly lived with my dad growing up so me and my mum arent super close anyway. she had my brother with her ex and that whole situation was messy, he had a drug problem and shes not exactly stable herself if im honest. my brother has no routine at all, not in nursery, stays up late, eats whatever, its all over the place
she also doesnt speak to him very nicely which i hate, calling him names and stuff and hes only little. i end up feeling bad for him which is why i say yes half the time but its getting too much now
i have reported concerns before but nothing came of it and she found out it was me which caused a massive fallout and we didnt speak for months
now its back to this again where she just expects me to have him whenever. i do love him obviously but i feel like im being taken the piss out of a bit
aibu if i start saying no or telling her she actually needs to sort childcare instead of just assuming ill do it?
