Her Husband Is Angry At Her Because She Asked Her Sister-In-Law To Give Her $200 For A Baby Swing After Borrowing It And Throwing It Out
At twenty-four years old, this woman was a first-time mom. But, her thirty-year-old sister-in-law had a lot of experience raising kids.
In fact, she had already welcomed three children into the world with the woman’s brother and was lucky enough to receive a ton of hand-me-down children’s items from the rest of the family.
Nonetheless, the woman’s first baby was only a few months apart from the sister-in-law’s newest edition. So, after the infant grew out of a baby swing, the sister-in-law asked the woman if she could borrow it.
The woman did take some time to think about lending it to her before ultimately agreeing. After all, she figured that she would get it back eventually.
Now, though, she is excitedly expecting a second child and, with another baby on the way, the woman knows that she will need another swing.
She figured that her sister-in-law’s baby had grown out of it by now and texted her asking for it back.
But, the woman was shocked to learn that her sister-in-law had thrown it away.
“I was angry– not only was it expensive, but now I cannot pass it down to my baby,” the woman explained.
So, when the sister-in-law offered to pay for it, the woman actually accepted. She asked her to either send the money– which added up to two hundred dollars– directly, or just order a new one on her own.

And the sister-in-law did end up following through without making a big deal at the time. But, the real issue came when the woman’s husband found out about it.
Apparently, the husband received a call from his sister, who described how upset she was over the baby swing ordeal.
“And now, my husband is angry at me because I charged his sister,” the woman said.
He also wants the woman to apologize to his sister and send back the money. But, the woman has refused and does not think she was anywhere near wrong.
Do you think the sister-in-law should have asked first before throwing out a borrowed item? Was it wrong of the woman to ask for the money back?
