    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.

    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 (2) on Fridays, but
  • 04
    she told my sister at the start of the week that she couldn't do it this week because she was taking me to an appointment. She gave her the time of the appointment and my sister said that was alright and she would get it sorted.
  • 05
    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.
  • 06
    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.
  • 07
    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 pi d 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".

    office she was even worse and wouldn't stop basically whining and sh, 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 pi d off I was and my mother said she didn't

    RNH213PDX • 3d ago • The person I feel most sorry for is your mother. She seems like she's trying to accommodate everyone's wants and demands on her time. You can't possibly think you don't sound entitled here, as well. (You literally
  • 19
    provide no reason for your mother to drop everything to help you except that "you wanted her" to.) Maybe everyone should give mom a break - and a spa gift certificate or something. Or at least take care of their own sh.. like adults.

    Prof... OP 3d ago • Edited 3d ago I didn't want her to drop everything to help me. We've been talking about the issue for weeks, I got the appointment 2 weeks ago and she said she would take me and would go in with me because she has been helping me with stuff do to with it.

    Manner-Sufficient • 3d ago • Ok. Seems old enough to be in the doctors office by yourself...
  • 22
    Professional_Fein752 OP⚫ 3d ago · I'm aware I'm old enough to go in by myself and I normally do, but for this specific thing I wanted her there..
  • 23
    RNH213PDX • 3d ago Yes. What SHE will do for YOU. You speak about her time like you are entitled to it! And she did it! But that is not good enough for you because someone else has competing demands on her time, too, that she is trying to accommodate. Your poor mom.

    Professional_Fein752 OP 3d ago What? Lol I'm sorry that I didn't want a toddler at a doctors appointment to do with mental health issues. I wasn't asking for the entire day with her, all we needed was an hour without my niece and my sister couldn't even give her that.

    RNH213PDX • 3d ago This issue is not your need, per se. It's your attitude.
  • 26
    Professional_Fein752 OP 3d ago • Okay sorry, can you tell me what it is so I know what not to do.

    Q dragonlover1779 • 3d ago • You're sister did this on purpose. She knew the father couldn't take her, had him show up and tell your mom knowing your mom would be pced but take the child anyways. Your sister had no intentions of finding someone else to watch her child that day. This was her whole plan and it worked. She doesn't care about anyone but herself.

    Professional_Fein752 OP 3d ago • She doesn't care about anyone but herself. My mom actually said that in the car on the way home lol
