Teenager slams parents after being grounded for taking a nap: ‘Please move out’

An 18-year-old’s punishment has her rethinking the amount of free labor she is providing her parents.She went on Reddit’s “Am I the A******” forum for help.The teenager babysits her siblings six times a week while her parents work and go on dates together.

But when her father grounded her for taking a nap after being run ragged, she became fed up.“I babysit my brother and sister six times a week because my parents work a lot… This has interfered with a lot of things that were part of my life prior to my mom taking her second job,” the teenager said.The 18-year-old goes to bed at 6 a.m.

And begins working for her parents from 8 a.m.

To 9 p.m.“My dad hates when I have naps during the day but I usually nap anyway... Earlier today he caught me, scolded me.

[…] Then grounded me"."I told him if he’s not gonna let me live my own life on days where I babysit AND prohibit me from sleeping after making me raise his kids he should start paying me,” the teenager explained.Reddit users felt the teenager was being exploited.“Please move out ASAP and tell your parents that they’re the ones that had the kids, it’s not your job to parent them,” someone wrote.“She’s working 78 hours a week unpaid,” another commented
