Woman Refuses To Apologize After Laughing At SIL And Saying She Has 'ZERO Desire' To Raise SIL's Child

On the r/AmItheA**hole subreddit, recently one post went viral, receiving 13.4k upvotes and more than 1.3k comments. The post is all about a woman (OP) who found herself at the center of a heated dispute with her sister-in-law (SIL).

SIL, a new mother, has become quite opinionated about parenting and isn't afraid to voice her judgments. During a Labor Day barbecue, things took an unexpected turn when SIL questioned the absence of the OP's sister, who has Down syndrome and was put into a private adult home for people with special needs by her guardians—the OP and her husband.
