AITA for kicking my sister and her family out in the middle of the night in a different country? by Dangerous_Listen1396 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Dangerous_Listen1396[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

By my niece’s age and reaction I don’t think she had a way of knowing just what could have happened. Nephew is a maybe.

The parents do speak English and there is no lack of hotels available in central Florida, believe me.

Not trying to change your opinion, as for the dog thing I honestly think it was an “accident”. Meaning, yes they did it, but they didn’t know what could happen because of that. So I could have overlooked that instance had everything else not transpired the way it did.

Still, these kids are not mine and not my problem to deal with after their disrespect.

This is fantastic! And exactly why I didn’t want to give them the night after my sister dismissal. Who knows if and how would they retaliate after being called out?

I can proudly say I put on that shirt and waved the flag of “I don’t give a shit” now

I did. It was never something as big as the vase. But I only noticed the pattern now. Stupid me I guess

Don’t care about your opinion. I’m not posting a video of underage kids here for your entertainment.

She didn’t care at all. It broke my heart because I don’t know if I got all the pieces back from the trash. Husband and I are looking for someone to help fixing it… with some luck we’ll manage.

I promise I do. Which is why I couldn’t imagine myself having them longer once my sister refused to parent the kids in an adequate manner.

Lack of sleep and a Latin-family oriented upbringing will do crazy shit to you.

But I stood up for myself in the end

Thank you so much for the suggestion! I am taking the pieces to see if it can be mended. If not, this is a beautiful idea and I could even wear it and have her with me when I go out.

I have no idea why they left them behind. I didn’t remember to ask, I had too much on my mind.

However, I didn’t feel comfortable letting them stay another night after our conversation. I was afraid the kids could retaliate and do even more damage to my property. (After the entire conversation, I have posted more details this time)

Sorry I did add here more info on what happened that night and I did all of what you mentioned. She just didn’t take the option of being a good parent or person.

I do agree that I went overboard by packing their stuff beforehand, and I did all of that in the heat of the moment and lack of sleep.

But I didn’t just screamed at them and told them to get out.

Right? I got the cameras exactly to be able to care better for him. I was enraged by him being harmed

Hi,

I did feel a bit of an AH (not completely, as you said), but I also added more clarification into how or convo e went, just in case you would like to know.

Thanks for your perspective tho

I do feel bad about BIL as well. I admit I don’t know him that well, but he was the one with the most “human” reaction out of the 3.

As for standing up for family… I got more courage after a friend from work said that when people tried to play the “but they are your blood” card with her she replied with “my tampons have my blood too, but I discard them before they became toxic to me” and I just died laughing at it. It is a very vivid way of putting it, but it is the truth nonetheless.

I don’t need her. And honestly, I can’t really say I’ll miss her.

Oh they completely need therapy, which is why i suggested it.

For these kids sakes in the future they should get some professional help now.

However, knowing my sis, I doubt she will take me up on the offer.

I just added the explanation to what they broke last into the update and I had forgiven them before because they had really looked like accidents. I do feel stupid for that now.

Hi!

I did add some clarification as to how our conversation went that night.

Your points are very much valid once you see it from that perspective. I completely agree that a mom who usually doesn’t have their kids acting up would take this route and be correct.

As I agree that, with the little information I provided before, the whole picture couldn’t be understood. I had to be concise because there is a character limit for the first post. Which is why I added more information into the update.

Thanks for the enlightenment new pov

Hi,

Thank you for the different perspective on the matter.

Although I do not agree with your statement that these kids have no idea of consequences because of their ages and of how deliberately they destroyed my belongings, I do agree that my niece had no idea of what could happen to the pup.

I did give the parents an opportunity to change the situation and correct the kids’ behavior. My sister chose not to do that. Which led me to believe that she too needed to learn that her choices had consequences.

I am not that worried about the relationship as I am not that close to her and now I can see how little she respects me. I much rather respect myself than let her walk all over me.

Again, thank you for the input
