A childless couple who recently moved to a new neighborhood found themselves at odds with local parents after refusing to babysit a neighbor’s children. The wife politely declined when asked to babysit two young kids, explaining she wasn’t comfortable with young children and had no time due to her weekend freelancing work. The neighbor’s husband then demanded an explanation, implying she should help because she was childless. This led to a heated exchange, with the wife insisting she wasn’t obligated to babysit. The situation escalated in the neighborhood group chat, where the couple received backlash, but Reddit users largely supported them, agreeing they were not in the wrong for setting boundaries.
