Family drama on vacation

A woman is asking for advice after her sister-in-law imposed on them by sending her kids over to their house for three weeks while they were on vacation at Universal. The woman and her husband tried to explain to the sister-in-law that they cannot afford to take the kids with them and asked her to choose a different week, but the sister-in-law refused and called them selfish. The woman’s brother-in-law also got involved, claiming that the $800 won’t break them, but the woman and her husband do not want to go into credit card debt for something that is not an emergency. They are now wondering if they are the a**holes for not taking their sister-in-law’s kids on vacation with them. Read on for the comments and reactions.
