The ‘Family Property’ Debate: Who’s Right, Who’s Wrong?
In a whirlwind of family drama, our bachelor finds himself caught between his dream of restoring his great grandmother’s farmhouse and his family’s expectations. His mother and sister believe the six-bedroom house should accommodate the family, despite his plans to renovate and reduce the number of bedrooms. His sister, a mother of three living in a cramped house, was hoping for an invitation to move in. But our bachelor has different plans for his ‘huge’ house. With the family feud escalating, even his 15-year-old cousin is eyeing a room! Now, the question is, who’s in the right here? Let’s see what the internet thinks of this situation…
NTA. Stick to your guns and let them die mad

NTA. You bought the house, it’s your property now

NTA. Your sister’s kids are her responsibility, not yours.

NTA. Sell the house and tell them they won’t stop bothering you

“NTA. Moving their school seems like a long-term commitment. ♀️ And her driving to work for so long will mean you’ll be sending them to school and getting them at the other end. They aren’t homeless. That’s a mother’s job to take care of her kids. I assume you have the single life because you like it. Taking on a family is a huge lifestyle change. No matter what they promise, you will soon be the AH for not babysitting etc.”

NTA. Sister not your responsibility. She lives with your mother
