So.. my aunties all work a lot of hours and so does my father. Three(i'll refer to them as A,B or C to make it easy to understand) of them live near us and have 4 children. Aunty A has one child, Aunty B has one child and Aunty C has 2.
Something has recently been pissing me off. They literally make absolutely NO attempt of organising a child minder to look after their children. They usually leave it up to me, my father or/and my brother to look after their children. My, my father and my brother live in a 2 bedroom house and most of the time they drop off ALL 4 children for us to look after.
To be honest, only one aunty(A) makes an attempt to help us around. She gives us money for groceries and even gives me and my brother pocket money. I am not too angry at aunty B because we have a close relationship.
But Aunty C drives me insane!!. She barely makes an attempt to pick up her children from school or even pick up her children from MY house. She usually expects one of us to drop off her children-To get this straight, she expects to look after her children hour upon hour AND to drop of her children at her house whenever it's convenient. Like right now, she's sleeping while her children are at my house and have not seen her today. Even when she has a off day, she goes to the city and drops her children at my house. To make matters worse, she only talks to one of us when she needs a favour and she does not offer any favours back.
As if things couldn't get worse, it's awkward because they go to my church. How do l bring this up to them(bearing in mind i'm only 14)?
