I was babysitting my little brother, and he was full of energy at the time (he’s 5) and since it was almost 10:00 at night I was trying to get him to chill out so he could go to sleep.
He was sitting on the couch and I had put on old episodes of Spongebob for him to watch, but apparently there was a scene coming up where Patrick gets beaten up and he wanted to “act out” the scene as he watched it. I didn’t want him to get all wild, so I told him no. He keeps asking me, but I continue to tell him no and to just watch the show sitting on the couch. He pauses the show and starts crying, and he yells for our mom to come downstairs (he always calls for our mom whenever I tell him no for anything).
I explain the situation, and my mom claims that I’m the one in the wrong and that I should have let him act out the scene. She says that I’m mean to him all the time and even threatens to kick me out of her house. When I suggest that she could be spoiling him, she claims that she spoiled me and compares me to her ex-husband (my brother’s father and my former step-father) before storming off with my brother to her room.
I just have to get this all off my chest because I feel like it’s all bullshit. The things she said I was just felt vile and unnecessary, and all because I told my brother no?

Man screw that! Kinda sounds like your mom is a bad parent ngl. Just focus on working to get out of there and have your own place.
