“Am I The Jerk For Telling My SIL That I Will Call The Cops For Child Abandonment The Moment She Steps Out Of The House?”

Life would be much easier if we didn’t have to live with other people. But since we can’t always have our own place, we have to do everything we can to minimize conflicts with our neighbors. While we can’t always get along with our family, at least we can choose who we live with. But sometimes, a person ends up in a situation where they have to live with their family members against their will and can’t do much about it.

This man on Reddit was in that situation and was starting to lose his patience with his sister-in-law. She was bossing him around and wanted him to watch her baby while she went to the pharmacy, but he refused and threatened to call the police.

The argument reached its peak when OP threatened to call the police for child abandonment if Jill stepped out of the house. In this post, OP wonders if he is in the wrong for standing his ground. From boundaries to financial responsibilities, this is an intense story of family conflict.
