Aunt agrees to babysit nephews for summer vacation, backtracks when sister-in-law insists on 3 hours of Bible study every day: 'I don't see myself doing all that'

One thing that most moms and dads learn early on in their parenting journey is that when it comes to free childcare, they have to take what they can get. Of course, it is vital to ensure that kids are in safe hands, and it isn't unreasonable to have a few basic ground rules, but other than that, somebody who is willing to babysit for no extra cost is a godsend that not every parent is blessed with.

Unfortunately, that doesn't stop some parents from having ridiculous and entitled expectations when it comes to those who are watching their children. They often want a level of control that just isn't feasible, or at least, most of those who are willing to take care of their kids for free are not willing to put up with. Unless they recognize when they are overstepping, it is likely that these types will get left without a babysitter.
