I have a eight old niece that's a brat?

She's not spoiled, thank heaven but she's into adult stuff like Family Guy and South Park and she always telling me how sex works and body parts. Her mother lets her watch those shows. Her three year old brother knows shut up from Family Guy and she thinks it's funny. Not only that, but she introduced him and their year old cousin to Child's Play and he's afraid to sleep in his own room and their cousin likes saying Chucky. How do I tell her mom I don't like that she's telling me stuff she doesn't need to know and I don't want her watching those kind of shows at my house, especially now that I have a five year old niece living with me? I know it's none of my business but I don't want her or her mother getting in trouble

    I would wait until she turns one of those shows on, and then change the channel and say that they should watch something a little more appropriate (make sure their mom is around). If their mom doesn't get the hint then you are just going to have to straight up tell her that you think those shows are too inappropriate for children that age to be watching and that you don't want your 5 year old nice watching them. You can try to be as polite as you want but thats ultimately what you might have to tell her at the end.

    U need to be straight up with this mom. Maybe tape the kids while they r talking to u, let their mom hear the tape n just tell her straight up, u have ur niece living with u now, u have to show some kind of home stability/consistency n what is on the tape is way to advanced for her kids to be repeating or even thinking. U believe in higher learning but even higher learning has its limits.

    If she doesn't listen to u, maybe start weaning urself from this person until further notice. Take a chill pill when it comes to anyone coming over n take it from there. Good luck.

    You do not have to let anyone do anything at your house. She is spoiled since she can do and act anyway she pleases. That makes her a spoiled brat.
