“It’s okay, don’t help your relatives with their children…” A female netizen complained. She originally wanted to say that she brought a baby at home, and the children usually get along well. “We lived in the old house with my mother-in-law, and my sister got married. Later, I lived in my own house with my brother-in-law (the sister-in-law left them). I was helping my husband’s sister with the children. I originally agreed to give me the cost of the babysitter outside, but later said that I would reduce it. There are ten thousand left.”

The original PO posted on the Facebook group “Anonymous 2 Commune”, “I picked up the child from 10 am in the morning, and I had to take care of it until 10 pm in the evening, and I often exceeded the time. I didn’t think so much at the time. I wanted to say that they were all relatives, so don’t worry about it. So many. Who knew it was the beginning of my nightmare… My sister and brother-in-law are both in the service industry, so they get off work late, and usually come to pick up the children before 10 o’clock, and now it is getting later and later, and they will buy midnight snacks We eat at home.”

A female netizen mentioned, “My husband has to get up seven or eight the next day and chat with them. He often chats until 12 o’clock, and then he pats his ass and leaves to create a pile of garbage. As long as they are on vacation the next day, they will stay later. But my husband has to go to work, he is actually very tired and insists that he will not. Now he will find various reasons to send the child early. These days, it is even more inconvenient to ride the child in a car on rainy days, so he directly lives at our house. Air conditioning No money? Water fee? Gas fee?”

The original PO said, “Now even if you don’t have to help them watch the children on vacation, you still have to see them, open the door and come in, have a meal and cool off, and the children will go home directly after drinking the milk, and I have to wash it. It’s becoming more and more natural, it’s really not necessary. I’ve complained to my husband about the above, but it’s useless~ He said it’s all his own family. At the center, his husband thinks it is too expensive, so he has to stay at our house for confinement.”

The wife said helplessly, “It seems to be okay after the beating, but many emotions are accumulated over time. It’s like my brother-in-law often plays too much with my child, throwing things at his head and hitting him on the head. I will stop immediately , if I didn’t see my child, wouldn’t I be bullied miserably by him?”
