Niece’s Violent Behavior Sparks Family Drama!

Our protagonist and her husband have been helping her sister by watching her three kids. However, the 11-year-old niece’s behavior has been getting worse, and during a recent visit, she hit her uncle between his legs so hard that he threw up! When the sister came to pick up the kids, our protagonist confronted her about the incident and demanded an improvement in her niece’s behavior. The sister’s response? Accusing the husband of being inappropriate for using an ice pack on his injury! Our protagonist lost her cool, called her sister disgusting, and banned her, her niece, and their mother from the house.
