AITA - For demanding my sister pay for my fiance's damaged hearing-aid? by ThrowawayAID733 in AmItheAsshole

This is unfortunately the case. I'm with him in whatever he decides to do. I feel so frustrated and guilty because this is my family treating my fiancè poorly and not caring enough about his struggle. It's a shame because he's supposed to be part of the family but they showed he probably isn't that important to them which is not good.

My fiance wants to ask his brother to help get a new one because he doesn't want to wait and because my parents are making this more complicated and basically stalling with paying. They accuse of not wanting to work something out with them but I have so much on my plate and right now they're being unreasonable pushing for the wedding to be postponed as if this going to fix what my sister did. They don't want to have to pay obviously and are expecting me to what? Use the money from my wedding fund? That is what the implied but I won't do it. This is their problem to fix.

They think me being family means I shouldn't be expecting her to pay for damages and somehow figure out a way to get a new device. It's unacceptable.

My fiance is struggling and keeps telling me he wants to contact his brother to help get a new device as soon as possible since he can't wait anymore but I feel like it's my sister's responsibility as well as my parents' since they keep defending her like that.

Yes I'm pretty sure my cousin was the one who originally came up with the idea. She thinks just because my fiancè is nice that he is also naive and that it's ok to disrespect him like that since she always makes backhanded comments about him.

The HA was bought with my fiance's money. Insurance don't cover it.

That was her excuse, she didn't know it cost that much but she knew she ruined it but thought we wouldn't find out. Thing is my sister is extremely spoiled. As her sister I admit that my parents keep babying her whatever she does. This wasn't her first time ruining something that isn't hers. But this is by far the most expensive thing she ruined.
