If I don’t help her she will be sitting here all Day

Hello


I am wondering about the tenses:


Context:

My little sister is doing her homework. I am starting to help her. My mom comes in and asks me why I am helping her.


I tell my mom:


If I don’t help her, she will be sitting here all day doing her homework.


Is it okay to use the future continuous like that?
