I have a 2 month old nephew, and his mother, my 17 year old sister is not caring for her baby. I assumed that she would be different then me because of her age and the fact that she has no father figure for the baby, but I never suspected that she would be this way.
Well what she does is she pawns the baby on whoever will take him. My mother is a crack cocaine addict and has been sober for the past six days. Well the second day of her sobriety my sister left the baby with mom after mom said she couldn't watch him because she felt sick from detoxing.
Last night I asked my mom how many nights this week has she watched the baby while my sister was out partying and she said every single night.
My sister has called her friend Missy so much to watch the baby that she no longer picks up the phone when my sister calls.
Every time I try to say something to her about how she's neglecting her baby, how she needs to grow up, make sacrifices, and bla bla bla...she tells me I'm envious because I don't have friends and I can't go party. Then she puts me down because I don't condone in her "pawning her baby off" games. She's just mad because I refuse to take the baby while she goes and gets smashed every night.
What scares me the most is that she refuses to be on birth control. She already has difficulties figuring out who the father is to my nephew now and if she was to get pregnant I highly doubt she would know who the father is. She;s very promiscuous because it's her way of seeking love, affection, and attention in her life.
I don't know what to do. I just wondering what you all thought. I will never call CPS or the police....that's out of the question because the baby is safe. I just need to know how to get across to her dumb head that she's a mother and it's time to grow the hell up!
