Need advice please!
Quick back story, I’m a 21 yr old dental hygiene student in Toronto. Soo today I asked my aunt if I could bring in my cousin who is 12 to my school to do a teeth cleaning on her as I need to work on a child as a requirement in my program and without it I won’t graduate. I asked her a while ago and she said okay but now she is making all these excuses like she can’t miss summer camp but when I spoke to her originally she said she can go as long as it’s during the summer as she can’t miss school.. which is understandable. I’m so mad and frustrated because my mom and me are always helping her out with her 3 kids with either babysitting, helping with homework or studying for tests, taking them to extra curricular activities and literally the one time we ask for something which is for my school she doesn’t want to. I’m even more mad about the fact that because it’s for me and not my sister she doesn’t want to. I had to now find another child to work on but the thing is that working on strangers means they are not reliable vs family who is suppose to be reliable. Especially when I’m paying 40 grand for my program. But also I’ve noticed more and more that my aunt doesn’t like me because at family dinners that we have on weekends at my grandparents she makes comments about me. Two examples recently would be that “I’m so fat and that I have a big nose” but I don’t know where she’s getting that from because I’ve had many people compliment me on my facial profile especially my nose. Idk if it’s right of me to say but I sometimes feel like she makes those rude comments about me to her daughter because in a way she feels threatened or jealous of me but idk why. Some days my aunt makes me feel so insecure when I’m around her and her 12 yr old daughter.
Can someone please tell me if I’m wrong or maybe I’m seeing it from the wrong point of view?
