Life is good when you're an aunt or uncle. You get to hang out with your nieces and nephews whenever you feel like cosplaying as a parent, but when you're ready to play video games, go to a bar, or if you just want to be a lazy, childless lump on the couch, you can check out and go home. Plus, you become the perfect free babysitter for your sibling's kiddos!

However, in our next story, an uncle learned that his involvement with his sister's three kids wasn't appreciated. To find a babysitter for hire costs $150/hour in some cities, and in this economy, u/smellycatandthebat wasn't about to be walked over by his sister's entitled boot.

For those of you out there who are parents and have a gaggle of kids running around at home, you know exactly how important it is to maintain a good relationship with your sitter. While they're the ones relieving you of parenting duties, they're also the responsible adult to whom you entrust your children regularly. Best not to burn that bridge, right?
Scroll onward to read how a fun-loving uncle got snuffed by his sister and retaliated by revoking her rights to his free childcare services, reminding this entitled mother not to take advantage of the people helping you parent.
