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.
SIL accuses the OP and her husband of not being suitable guardians for her child, insinuating that their decision to place the OP's sister in a special needs home reflects their inability to be a true family. The exchange took a sharp turn when the OP laughed at her SIL and said, "Well, that's great news since I have ZERO desire to raise your kid."
SIL left the gathering in anger, leaving behind a trail of harsh words. Later, she called OP and demanded she apologize for what she had said. However, she refused.
Curious about what happened next? Did the OP finally apologize? Keep scrolling for more details!
