A woman has a 16-year-old nephew who recently decided to vandalize her car. Her nephew spray-painted all over and wrote some incredibly nasty things too.

When her brother found out about what her nephew did, he hit the roof. He issued an apology to her, and he forced her nephew to apologize as well.

Her brother additionally said that he was happy to give her the money to get her car fixed or make her nephew pay.

Because of the way her brother handled it all, she thought it was best to put this behind her and not get the police involved.

Her nephew has never once done something like this in his life, and he’s normally extremely well-behaved for a teenager.

She adores her nephew, and she has no children of her own. She loves being his aunt, and although she was upset with him for what he did to her car, it didn’t make her love him any less.

Her brother and his wife moved forward with punishing her nephew by grounding him. They also took all of his electronics away (like his phone and computer), and they made him hand over his skateboard, which is one of his favorite things.

Her nephew was alright with the punishment handed to him, but he lost it when his parents took his skateboard away since it’s that important to him.

A couple of evenings ago, her brother and his wife came to her place to have dinner. They mentioned that they took her nephew’s skateboard and gave it away to her sister-in-law’s little sister since she was interested in skating.

“I asked them if my nephew knows about this, and they laughed and said no,” she explained. “I asked them if the little sister will be returning it or if he’s never getting that skateboard again, and my brother was all like “depends“ before he and his wife started giggling again.”

“Apparently, SIL’s sister is very prone to destroying things and is also very possessive of things. What they were telling me is that my nephew isn’t getting it back.”

“I was a little upset. IDK if they expected me to be happy, but my nephew customized that skateboard himself and is very proud of it. Sure he messed up really bad, and I’m still pretty angry, but I do agree with my nephew. What they’re doing with the skateboard is overkill.”

She confronted her sister-in-law about that, and her sister-in-law got offended before pointing out that the skateboard was part of the punishment for what he did to her car.

She replied to her sister-in-law that they had already punished her nephew enough, and her sister-in-law wasn’t happy with that.

Her brother didn’t say a word while she argued with her sister-in-law, and then they both got up and left. Her sister-in-law believes she’s being ungrateful, but she thinks her sister-in-law and brother are being way too harsh on her nephew.

Do you agree with her, or do you see things from her sister-in-law’s point of view?
