I Refused To Babysit My Stepsister's Kids. My Dad Threatened To Cut Me Off.... - Reddit Family

[@kristalparsons5473]

The first thing I would have asked her is...who are you sleeping with that YOU, a stay at home mother, NEEDS a babysitter?

[@happilyevernever4289]

OP's sister definitely did wrong by not accepting OP's boundaries, but atleast she wasn't out for selfish reasons. She was actually trying to get help to be better. If only she had been honest with OP from the start, instead of letting shame for needing therapy rule her over. Stay-at-home moms need help too. Especially someone with postpartum problems. Don't say ignorant things.

[@Allie_phelps]

Wow this story brings a whole new meaning to keeping it in the family. Grotty

[@RedditFamilyTales]

Right?! It’s definitely one of those stories that leaves you speechless. You never know what twists family secrets can bring! Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

[@michaellohmeier6427]

Even some families in the Appalachians have a better family tree than those rabbits.

[@Gamerboi99]

This story got real wild real fast. Jake's half sister, is also OP's half sister, meaning Jake is also related to OP, if only through a tangential link. So the stepsister Emma married a guy, who has an affair with his half sister, and the affair partner is also related to OP, and that makes both Jake and the affair partner step relations with Emma. This is some family wreath bullsh*t.

These therapists will need therapy after this.

Why are you feeling guilty? Your stepsister and father don't feel guilty. you're going to be the bad one anyway

[@MercilessJoey]

i stop listening to stories like this when OP always says they feel guilty

Because the one that is wrong always is burden with guilt , they know they have nothing to feel guilty about but being told they have to feel guilty because that is what they are suppose to feel and be at their beckon call

This is ridiculous. She deserves to stand up for herself and if the relationship is only about her bowing to his will, it is a terrible terrible relationship anyway. The father is a manipulator just as Emma is.

[@lsmith992]

No-one has therapy sessions every evening

[@RoboJon]

That's what I was thinking. Who goes to therapy at 6-9pm?

[@marymasavage8986]

I do understand the doubt, I really do, however, some therapists and psychiatrists do take clients on an emergency/crisis basis. Some do even work after the typical 9-5 for those that have no other option and are stuck at work during that timeframe. I've never had PPD, but I have had moments of absolute depression in my past to that point of being a crisis case and I have also had my medicine suddenly stop working due to another medication for another medical issue. I was seen quickly on those occasions and repeatedly until everything was straightened out. PPD can do the same thing and have long lasting effects if not permanent effects. It really all depends on how mentally dire the mental/emotional state is and the potential ramifications of that state of mind.

[@happilyevernever4289]

How idiotic y'all judge her, but it seems like OP's sister was trying to get better quickly for her kids.

[@ladyofthewaters]

OP probably will be after all this

[@jujubees5855]

I would run by the kid's dad and asked why he thinks his wife needs babysitting in the evening and where is he?

[@ladyofthewaters]

15:27 excuse me but WHAT?!? I feel bitch slapped by this. 16:58… WHAT DA ?!?? Stop, stop STOP!!!! What small town did this happen in? 18:24 ain’t no therapist prepared for all this.

Imagine supporting yourself and 2 kids on a parttime , likely minimum wage job.

[@MCBRUCE76]

There are three versions of the same story. Stepbrother, stepsister, and stepmother's sister's daughter. Fake stories generated by AI's.

[@iosafgoetia2017]

I thought "Sweet Home Alabama" was only a joke.

[@Mommapunkin]

What the hell! OP needs to stay away from the NEW half-sister. Because any woman who has an affair with a married man with children, especially if he's your half-brother! She has no morals.......oh yes she does, that of an alley cat that's in the middle of heat.

[@inferiorinferno8859]

That's an insult to alley cats.

[@inferiorinferno8859]

First of all, glad OP isn't the one who'd immediately rain hell on earth and called the cops when Emma dropped the kids off like I would have because I'm that kind of person you shouldn't piss off considering Emma's reasons turnt out to be more sympathetic then I assumed. Also, as someone with a half-brother, hooking up with them is just gross.

[@bspencer6356]

Stop setting yourself on fire in order to keep someone else warm. Your father made his choice: it isn’t you. Accept that. Move on.

[@Finn_the_stoned]

Nah unless someone is dying you dump your kids on me I’m calling the cops for abandonment.

So the Jake is sleeping with his half-sister who turns out to be Sophia's half sister because the father had an affair. Emma knew about Jake being romantically involved with his half-sister. It's like something out of Deliverance. 😮🤮

[@talialove-johnson7029]

No she said she knew he was meeting up wit her but she found out after the meetings became too frequent and den followed him and that wen the stepsister found out bout it cus he admitted to it

​@talialove-johnson7029 I'm lost. Who did Jake have the affair with? 😂😂😂😂

Jake is having an affair with his half-sister (same mom). That same half-sister is OP’s recently discovered half-sister (same dad). So Jake and OP aren’t related but they share a half-sibling.

i really enjoyed the storytelling in this video, it was engaging and thought-provoking. but honestly, i can't help but think that refusing to babysit your stepsister's kids might come off as a bit selfish? i mean, family dynamics can be complicated, but isn't it important to support each other, especially when kids are involved? just a thought!

[@unknown12367]

Wait so Op and emma aren't sisters ok but op has a half sister who's having an affair with Jake who's emmas husband but thankfully emma isn't related to the affair partner of jake.but jake and his affair partner are half siblings. If the affair partner is half siblings with both Jake and op that makes them also half siblings.
