To be annoyed my brother brought his stepson to my mums birthday meal?

[moooglas]

As title says.

Me and my brothers don't have the best relationship although I try and get along with them for my mum. Today was my mums birthday and I planned a meal out with her and both brothers, my youngest brother is in a relationship with a woman and she has a 5 year old DS. She's only been with my brother for 9 months but she's already Introduced him to my brother and my mum has also met him.

One brother couldn't come but my younger one said he could but he'd brought his girlfriend's son along. He said the child had been sick last night so he couldn't go to his activity and his mum had to work so he was looking after him. All throughout the meal the child kept getting up and was being a typical child at a restaurant. We then were going to go back to my mums but brother made a comment about them going back to his girlfriends as the child still had an upset stomach but says it isn't a bug.

AIBU in being annoyed?

Is the issue that he bought a child with a tummy bug out? If so then YANBU.

If it's the "stepchild" relationship or that they are a child. Then YABU

Who cares get over it

I expect your mum enjoyed seeing him and was happy to see the step son.. he's going to be a part.of the family so why should your brother not bring him..am leaving aside the issue of the potential stomach bug..not very cool if he's shared that about though

You sound like a

Are you asking if he should have brought a sick child to the restaurant or if he should have brought a stepchild to the restaurant?

Very different answers to the two.

No you are not being unreasonable. What your brother did by bringing his girlfriend's kid to this meal is absolutely selfish. He changed the atmosphere and seems ill-disciplined.

N9t clear which bit is the problem.

For me...Bring "stepson" is fine.

Making everyone ill by exposing them to sick child /patient zero is a no...
