Childfree Woman Clapped Back At “Friend” After She Demanded She Pick Up Her Kids From Camp Every Day

The most rewarding yet demanding event in a person’s life can be having children. When one considers the profound changes that motherhood brings about in her body, mind, and sense of self, the struggles of motherhood are not to be laughed at. We also don’t ignore the daily societal pressures mothers experience. Despite this, the mother is ultimately responsible for the kid, and she should share this obligation with anyone who is willing to do so. However, there have been instances where mothers felt empowered to approach, then pressurize, friends to care for their children on the grounds that raising a child requires a village.

This is the circumstance that Reddit user artinthegarage encountered and described in her post on the r/EntitledPeople thread. The Original Poster (OP) referred to the group of mothers as the “Mommy Group,” and although one mother’s idea escalated into a full-on peer-pressure event, it appears that the OP had the final laugh. Really literally. Please share your ideas and opinions in the section below, my dear friends. Was the OP correct to respond as she did? What action would you have taken? Additionally, if after reading all of this you still feel the need for some hot entitlement stories, I’ve got you covered! Let’s get started!

There are times in life when you have no choice but to ask for assistance. Whether it’s members of your family, friends, acquaintances, or yoga class, there are always people who could be willing to provide a helping hand. As long as you’re not a spoiled bully who won’t accept rejection.

Jennifer Nicole, better known online as artinthegarage, is an artist with 15.6K Instagram followers. She recently shared her encounter with a spoiled mother who would not let her decline to care for her three young children and enlisted the aid of her gang of friends to ‘persuade’ her. There are many layers to peel back here, but it’s a very interesting situation.

The struggles of being a single mother should never be understated; however, the OP was being pressured by someone she barely knew to be a nanny for their kids

The OP was peer pressured into babysitting by the “Mommy Group” of friends via email and phone call because “it would be great to do for a single mom.”

The OP kept her ground, refusing to let the entitled mother or her pals influence her routine or fundamental principles.
