My Brother Thinks I’m Free Babysitter to His 3 Kids, Constantly Ruins My Plans
A 23-year-old woman called the police on her brother after he left his three children—one five-year-old and three-year-old twins—unattended on her porch.
Her brother often forced her to babysit, disregarding her plans. One day, while she was heading to a friend’s house, he called, saying he would drop off the kids despite her refusal. When she warned she’d call the police, he ignored her. Minutes later, her doorbell camera showed the children outside.
Panicked, she turned back, called the police, and refused to watch them when asked. Child Protective Services took the children. Later, at 4 a.m., her brother called, furious, but she reminded him it was his fault.
The situation escalated—her brother and his wife lost custody and faced child endangerment charges. She was asked to take legal guardianship and agreed, keeping it secret. When her brother found out, he bombarded her with messages, blaming her for ruining his family.
