Am I the asshole?

Question

My sister ( who I’m not very close with. We just got into contact like 3 years ago) she text me and asked if I could watch her 1 year old so she could go out to a concert with her boyfriend. I told her I might be going out and she said to let her know asap so she can buy the tickets or not. Well I ended up getting the flu and text her “hey I’m not going out anymore but I’m super sick “ and she said “oh that’s perfect cause he’s sick too! So it’s fine” I was annoyed with this because I don’t want to watch a toddler while I have the flu. Especially a sick toddler so I said “no I’m like super sick. I have a fever and my body hurts so bad” that was the end of the conversation she never responded so I assumed she understood that I said no and then the next day she texts me “on my way to drop him off. Can he just stay the night so I don’t have to come get him and I can have sexy time with my boyfriend?” I told her no I never agreed to watching him I’m sick and she’s mad because she said she bought the tickets already. Now I feel forced to watch him but I feel soooo awful. I have a migraine, my body hurts and I can barely stay awake

Answer

This is her problem, not yours.

Answer

She should be home taking care of her sick child

Answer

No, you’re not the asshole. Stand your ground, you don’t need to be babysitting. Period.

Answer

Wow! Says a lot about her as a mom and sister. Take care of yourself first!

Answer

She only heard what she wanted to hear. Put your foot down. It’s not your responsibility. I hope you feel better soon

Answer

Absolutely not. That is her child ! Not yours. You have no obligation to watch her child. Also you never agreed to watch him in the first place

Answer

Nah, she is. Don’t let her guilt trip u into doing it.. ps getting upset about that, says a lot about her shitty character “oh you’re sick!? Cool watch MY child!” 🙄😒 tf

Answer

She clearly thinks of herself and not her child.. who needs her and not to mention.. ur sick.. the child is and doesn't really know u.. if the child can't settle.. what then? She still have sex with her man? That's disgusting.

Answer

I think you could have said no more clearly. I also think she thinks you might be lying to get out of babysitting.

Answer

You are definitely not! You should rest and take care of yourself and not get more sick while watching a 1 year old who is sick with you don’t know what! It’s also not good for the 1 year old, he could get what you have too and it would mess up things even more! I think it’s just a very responsible thing of you to not watch a sick child while being sick yourself! You also wouldn’t be able to be the best version of yourself while feeling awful! So she’s not able to go on a concert and have sexy time? Welcome to motherhood my dear - things won’t go as planned anymore every time! Also my personal view: I wouldn’t want anyone else to watch my sick child but me and my husband!
