This afternoon I bought a tub of ice cream and realized it was too big to eat by myself. I offered to sell half of the tub to my siblings and my little brother (10) decided to buy it.

Now, we have 2 kids staying with us for a while (8&5) and when they saw my brother and I had ice cream they immediately started asking. I said no because I bought this ice cream for myself as a treat and if they wanted they would have to buy from me, so they ran to my dad and begged him for money. My dad gave them and they took a scoop of ice cream.

When my mom came home and heard what happened, she called me stupid and said that it was a really dumb thing to do because how on earth can I eat ice cream in front of little kids and not share. I defended myself and felt that it was unfair for me to have to hide my treats and hide everything away so that they don’t whine and cry. I bought it so it’s mine and I shouldn’t have to share every time I but a treat for myself.

ETA: These kids are staying with us for a bit while their mom gets a place for them overseas. They’re incredibly spoiled and my mom enables their behavior because they aren’t her kids. Im fed up with dealing with them and this was the last straw for me

AITA ?
