"Ask his mom if I can babysit him" is this not weird....?

Details don't really matter for made up stories.

You like telling kids Santa doesn't exist, don't you?

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 3 points 6 months ago

That's the best part of being a mall Santa.

Believe it or not, some uncles actually enjoy spending time with their nieces and nephews, and parents like to have a break from raising their children. It's amazing what can happen when your family is barely functional

My nieces and nephews are some of my favorite people ever.

"not tonight. He broke both his arms so we're going to spend quality time. How about tomorrow night?"

[–] glorious_albus@lemmy.world 17 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Now there's a reference I hadn't seen in a while

Now there's a reference I wish had stayed on the shit hole site

[–] ChexMax@lemmy.world 19 points 11 months ago

It's not that weird. I offer to babysit somewhat regularly. I miss my nephews, and my sister / brother-in-law get a date night. Win win

[–] JokeDeity@lemm.ee 9 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Why would it be? It's your brother or sisters kid, should be extremely normal to babysit them. What's in your mind that makes it weird?

[–] DeathsEmbrace@lemmy.ml 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

They don't have family or aren't close which I feel bad for them.

[–] moog@lemm.ee 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I actually don't have any family and never have :/ it just me and my dad

[–] DeathsEmbrace@lemmy.ml 2 points 11 months ago

You have family your dad never take them for granted if it's a loving relationship.

[–] Igloojoe@lemm.ee 6 points 11 months ago

Writing on the wall in your siblings' house not wierd too...

[–] redhydride@lemmy.ml 21 points 11 months ago

That is one hell of a way to develop clown trauma

[–] rustydomino@lemmy.world 13 points 11 months ago
