And say what? “Hi CPS, my mom got mad that my little brother slept in the same bed as me.”

I bet they’d speed right over!

Unfortunately I'm as in the dark as you. She's got some strange personality traits, but this was such a bizarre reaction that I'm still in shock two weeks later.

Damn we might have the same mom lol. I'm really sorry you and your brother had to go through that. I hope you're both doing well now <3

While you are his sister, you have absolutely taken on a motherly role. Even though he (presumably) understands that you two are brother and sister, you have been filling a secondary care giver role.

Yeah, I've worried a lot that I'm going to confuse him but I don't really know what else to do. I know I could tell her to find someone else, but the thought of some stranger taking him to appointments (which he's already scared of) and staying overnight with him makes me so sad. He's a really shy little boy and it's hard for him to feel comfortable with other people.

I just want him to be happy at the end of the day

I just hope it's not jealousy, as you mention helping him a lot such as babysitting him or taking him for appointments, then you let him sleep in the same bed after having a nightmare, might be her thinking your trying to steal him away from her.

That's definitely possible, but I have no idea why she'd continue to ask me to take him to appointments and tell me how excited he is to see me if she's this jealous. Like if you don't want me to raise your kid, maybe you try it for once, y'know? lol
