Kick her in the face and never watch them again. She's a dirty rotten scumbag.

She's taking advantage of you. She knew you were out with your husband and she should have found another babysitter. Since she knew you were out and that she'd ruined your dinner she should have come back asap as she had said. You can't just stop babysitting (she's your sister and family can't just disappear), so I reckon that you should let her know how upset you are and why. Then tell her that next time you're busy to not bug you. And that next time you babysit her children, she's going to pick them up on time. Make her understand that when you say 'no', you mean it. She needs to respect you!

Yes, tell her you won't watch them anymore!
If she's too irresponsible to look after her OWN children, and will happily ruin YOUR night out to go on one of her own, without even having the decency of telling you when she'll be back, she isn't worth your time and you should tell her that you won't babysit for her. Also, if she knows that you can't sleep properly because you're scared for your own children then it's really unfair asking you to look after hers too.
Tell her you're not doing it anymore.

Just say, "You blew it, kid. I'm not watching your kids AGAIN. It better involve a hospital if I do."
And mean it.
Next time she calls, laugh and hang up. Put the phone on mute.
A little boundaries goes a long way.

I understand that you're trying to be a good sister but you should really put your foot down and not let her walk all over you. Besides she said not that long. One in the morning seems long to me. I understand if you can't trust her after that.

sounds like your sister is a whore. be nice to the kids, they didnt have any choice in this. you lost your boy to sids? i am very sorry to hear that, try to relate the son you lost to the children that you have to care for. it may help you to feel alittle better about the situation at least.

well, you're being taken advantage of. I would have a firm talking with her, and let her know that if she continues to take advantage of you, you will not watch her kids at all anymore.

If you don't watch her kids again, that will hurt you and her kids. It's not their fault. Give your sister hell and tell her not to pull that again. What else can you do? Disown her??

You should consult your husband, take a firm decision which suits your situation best, and stick to it firmly. Period. (Full-stop)
