Families are much more than a group of individuals with the same genes or a common residence. They ought to be a source of affection and assistance.

This does not imply that everyone always gets along. Conflicts inevitably arise in families.

Conflict can result from a variety of factors, including sickness, incapacity, addiction, job loss, difficulties in school, and marital troubles, among other things. The family can be strengthened by talking things out and listening to one another when there are disagreements.

Family issues span a wide range of issues that impact each family member, going far beyond issues like abuse or addiction. For the Redditor in today's story, her elder sister was her problem.

The OP's parents had her when they were really young, so they did not do a great job with her as she has a lot of problems. According to the OP, she is both chronically unemployed and a thief.

When the OP's older sister broke up with her boyfriend, she begged their parents not to let her stay with them, but they declined. She asked for a lock on her bedroom door, and they declined that as well.

Her sister ended up bashing her car, which had to be replaced. The insurance would cover fixing or replacing the car depending on the damage, but the OP would have to file a police report first.

This means her sister would be charged, and her parents didn't want that. Keep scrolling to read how the entire story unfolded.

OP says:

The OP stated that she lives with her parents

The OP's sister broke up with her boyfriend and needed a place to stay

Her grandparents had helped her get the car and insurance.

It's fine. I can do without seeing Disney World again

The OP gets home and there is a deadbolt on her bedroom door

You should go live with your grandparents

A lock would have been cheaper

A lick could have solved the whole problem

What the OP should tell her nieces

Your sister should realize that she can't get away with this at all

If anyone is to blame, it's her

This decision was on them and not you

She made the choice to steal your car

As simple as this

You are hurting your nieces

It was the last line for this Redditor

The OP does blame her sister

It's not your fault the vacation would no longer work

Is the key where your sister can get it?

She has no incentive not to do this again

They have no idea how to function in the real world

It's not fair that your nieces have to miss the trip

The OP already kept her important documents at her grandparents

You're setting a good example for those kids

No family is flawless, but it can be difficult to see family problems as they develop for people whose families have never been blatantly "evil." Fortunately for the OP, her sister is the one she has to deal with, and according to Redditors, she handled the situation incredibly well.
