basically I am 15 years old and I have a little sister who is almost 2 years old. I have been baby sit her during the day when my parents are at work because when she used to go to daycare she kept on getting sick with diharea, and she just was not very healthy there because of the un hygenic conditions there, so then my parents started homeschooling me and then they made me babysit her so that she wouldn't get sick. Anyways I have been doing this for almost a year now. And it has been putting a lot of stress on me. My parents tutor me after they come home and during the weekends, so it doesnt affect my studying too much. But I recently started having these dark circles under my eyes because it is very stressful for me. But if I would tell them to send her back to daycare she would keep getting sick again because the conditions there are very bad, infact my mom saw another kid using my sister's pacifier there and she freaked out at the sight of that. And that would make me feel very bad also if I had to send her back to that.
So I am not exactly sure if I should tell them that I cant take care of her, or just keep doing this until she grows a little older and will become more self dependent. I have to travel to a foreign country for exams anyways, so my parents will either have to come with me or find a way to take care of her because she will obviously will not be old enough to stay home by herself then.
