MOD NOTE: Age appears to be incorrect, the poster says she is 19.

My cousin is getting married. Great, huh? Not for me. My 46 year old parents left (For a few weeks. They want to get to know the bride). I have to push of school for a few weeks, because I have to stay home and cook for my lil' sister and brother. I have to pay for the babysitter so I can go to work so I can buy food and pay the babysitter. I'm only 19! My little siblings are 4 and 6 only. The wedding is next June! My school starting is August! How can I let my parents know that this in't a huge deal, maybe, up to April!

Tell them that you simply cannot manage 2 kids.

They must either provide a LOT of money for you to pay for a nanny so you can work / study.

Or tell them that you are going to bring in help in the form of social services.

Good Luck!! xx
