Although that is enough to bother me (I will never say anything to him because I am being paid), his eldest is my only school pick up in the afternoon... so I will get all the kiddies dressed and walk to school (even during winter storms) to pick him up when his dad is at home playing video games
They have done this for days off too.... I always have my nephews, even until closing time on Christmas eve!
But... what can you do? I try to simply enjoy my time with them and ignore the rest!
I couldn't do it! It's one thing to feel bitter and resentful towards dcps, but when it's family? eww...I'd have a hard time getting over it. I'm not good at that stuff!
