Just because we're older doesn't mean we should be raising your kids. We wanted to be kids too, you know?

i’m the youngest but in my culture, the burden always falls on the oldest daughter. and that would be me. i basically take care of everyone in the house. at times, i feel like i’m the only adult in the house.

@SW-User Are you the only female?

@Melpomene yes (if my mom doesn’t count in this)

@SW-User You didn't mention her so I didn't know whether to count her in or not. Sounds like an old setting of he works - she cleans and cooks, which could only be applicable if the daughters stay with their housewife tasks but that turns men into such babies...
