'Above all, my kids will always come before a dog and that's the reason I was willing to request it.'

. Here’s how the whole messy situation went down. The mother took to Reddit’s “Am I The A**hole” message board to find out if she was in the wrong about a confrontation she had with her sister.“I have 4 kids ages 11 months, 3, 5, and 10. I love them all more than anything, but I’ll be the first to admit that our house is constant chaos and it can get very exhausting,” she. “My sister is child free, but loves my kids and was happy to watch the older 2 or sometimes 3 to help me keep my sanity.

Her sister responded that she actually wants to foster another dog who is desperately in need of a home. That’s when the Reddit user broke. “I haven’t ever done this before, but I opened up to her about how much I have been struggling since she got the dog. How little sleep I get each night, how my husband hasn’t been helping as much as he should, and some other deeply personal issues that I’ve been struggling with.

Her sister comforted her but couldn’t make any promises either way, instead saying that she needed some time to think. “I know I am asking a lot of her since rescuing dogs is her passion and that is why I feel so guilty. But I don’t have anyone else to help me,” the mom concluded.

Child-free people don’t exist on this earth to watch your children,” one person wrote. “It’s wonderful that she’s offered to watch them as much as she has, and it’s great that you remember to thank her often, but you have to understand that when shewatch your children, it’s not because her time is worth less than yours and it’s just naturally expected that she help you.”“OP even admits her husband isn’t pulling his weight as the other parent,” a user noted.

Another added: “She even specifies that rescuing dogs is her sister’s PASSION but, still asked her to stop doing the things she enjoys so her sister can watch her kids instead of And then there was some empathetic advice offered. “Honestly I would rethink how you organize your day, make sure you have that 10 minute decompression when they’re finally in bed,” someone suggested.
