When things are hard, it’s natural to want your mom.

But your mom can only do so much if she has other responsibilities.

Keep reading to see why she and her mom are upset with her sister.

Sister couldn’t properly arrange childcare for my doctors appointment

I had a doctors appointment today and my mother was taking me and also going in with me because I wanted her to.

My mother looks after her granddaughter on Fridays, but she told my sister at the start of the week that she couldn’t this time because of my appointment.

She gave her the time of the appointment and my sister said that was alright and she would get it sorted.

But planning early didn’t prevent what happened next.

On Wednesday our mother reminded her and my sister said she had it all sorted out and her boyfriend was coming over to look after her snd he can just stay at the house with her while we’re away.

Then today this morning her boyfriend arrives at our house and he comes in and he told our mother that he had to be elsewhere for a certain time, so he couldn’t actually stay.

Apparently he told my sister this but she never told our mom, so our mother texted her and apparently my sister replied saying “Oh yeah sorry I forgot to tell you that lol”. So he drove 40 minutes to our house for no reason because of my sister.

Our mother was ticked because in the timeframe he had it wouldn’t have worked anyway because he had to be back at his house by the time my appointment started.

Her boyfriend offered to take his daughter with him but my mother just said we would take her, which I thought was an awful idea but she said “I know it’s not ideal but don’t worry she’s normally good at the doctors it shouldn’t be a problem.”

Unfortunately, it was a problem.

In the waiting room she didn’t shut up, she was running around singing and I was just ignoring her and pretending she wasn’t there because it was annoying me so badly.

Then in the actual office she was even worse and wouldn’t stop basically whining, all while we were trying to speak to the doctor. Overall the experience was awful and my sister basically ruined the entire thing and it was all about my niece instead of me.

I understand that I could’ve just went in by myself but I wanted my mother there and I didn’t think my niece would be as annoying as she was.

I just sat in silence the whole way home because of how ticked off I was and my mother said she didn’t even want to speak to my sister because she was also super annoyed about the whole situation.

Here is what folks are saying.

I don’t get why she doesn’t blame her mom, too.

Seems fair!

I doubt she’d have the backbone to do that.

She sounds insufferable.

I don’t know why this mom lets her other daughter act like this.

I doubt this is the first time something like this has happened.
