In a tale that tugs at the heartstrings, one fashionista finds herself at odds with her family over her designer wardrobe. Her sister, facing mounting medical bills, proposes a fire sale of the high-end clothes. But when the fashionista suggests her sister also sell some of her geeky collectibles, the suggestion is met with resistance. The family weighs in, pushing for a greater contribution from the fashionista. But with her sister unwilling to part with her own treasures, the fashionista stands her ground. The question remains: Is she right to refuse to sell all her clothes? Let’s see what the internet has to say…

Generosity questioned: Family pressures to sacrifice for sister’s medical bills.

“NTA. Your family is acting like AHs though. They are YOUR clothes and you have no obligation to sell them for her gain. It was kind and wonderful that you were planning to give her some of your sale $. To expect that or demand that is astonishing to me. We have medical debt due to one of our children’s stays in ICU. We pay more than our mortgage payment towards the debt every.single.month and she is about to have another surgery so here we go with more debt we will be paying. And we pay A LOT monthly for GOOD insurance. We have foregone the bigger house we had been about to buy, gave up on home improvements, sold things, passed on vacations and (pre-COVID) events/gatherings/etc. I would be so grateful if someone offered any help, but I would never demand or expect it. I am sorry they are behaving like this. Stand your ground.”
