Sometimes, we say things we absolutely shouldn't but we are human, and we just can't help ourselves. In a few of these instances, you may be able to argue your way out of trouble, but if you've hurt someone's feelings (especially those of a close family member), good luck trying to talk yourself out of it.
In this story, we have a teenager whose older sister has six children. Now, six is a lot, especially if you have to frequently rely on the help of your mother and sister because of all that you have on your plate. Look, it's not that kids can't be a blessing, but you have to have your stuff together in order to handle parenting. If you don't, then we've got a problem. Furthermore, if you are so reliant on your family for support, surprisingly adding another kid to the mix might have been something to discuss with your support system well in advance.
This teenager frankly said what everyone was thinking. She may have hurt her sister's feelings, but maybe the whole debacle will have been worth it if it ends up being the wake-up call her sister needed to stop being so reliant on other people to assume her parenting responsibilities. If it's not that wake-up call, oh well. At least OP was honest!
