AITA for never helping my siblings with their kids at family events

A woman in her late 20s, who is childfree, faces backlash from her siblings for refusing to help with childcare during family events. With 14 nieces and nephews, including her sister’s six kids, she prefers to spend quality time with her aging parents rather than babysitting.

Despite being pressured to assist with various tasks like changing diapers and feeding babies, she firmly declines, expressing that her siblings’ choices are their responsibility. While her husband and dad support her stance, her siblings and mother argue that it’s her duty as a sibling to help.
