[FULL STORY] What’s the most unconventional but effective way you’ve dealt with an entitled person?

[RangoandRandy]

Stealing $1000, destroying personal property, literally breaking into a room???
I’m taking that to court, idgaf if you’re family

[someone_weird-_-]

"teenagers borrow other people's stuff all the time" THEY ARE 18!!!! Still technically teenagers but they should be grown enough to not do this crap

[gnt]

“Treating them like thieves” because they are thieves tf??

[XOXO_Asher]

The fact the wife picking sides instead of protecting her daughter says way too much to me, I'm glad she started to realize the damages these people causing

[THCLK]

*it wasnt an easy decision* excuse me what the fuck?! if someone would endanger the health of my kid, they would be out of my life in seconds... would be the easiest decision in my life!

[ladytionne]

She didn’t care about the girl stolen stuff she only cared when the house got trashed. Pathetic

[someone_weird-_-]

god I hate it when they play the family card. Like, OP, his wife and daughter are family too and they still treated them like that

[stirlingarcher]

OP and his wife have to be a really slow to leave those people alone in their house after everything that had transpired. I feel so bad for the daughter and OP but mostly the daughter. Not so much the mom

[TA-qmjf]

He would have been kicked out the moment they broke the daughter's laptop.

Plus why does the brother have access to their bank account??

[basic-is-weird]

"Treating my daughters like thieves" THEY ARE THIEVES WHAT R U TALKING ABT?

[gluttonouswolf]

The dad let it go too far and should have given his wife an ultimatum. Especially after the house was trashed.

[caponebd]

I’ve never understood how people let guests act this way in their own house. I don’t care if they’re family, that’s all the more reason for them to respect you and show gratitude for your hospitality. If they can’t follow your rules, that’s on them. They can find somewhere else to stay.

[audrablue]

The OP and his wife waited way too long to get rid of them. After the first incident I would have ousted them right there. And what kind of idiots go on holiday leaving those people in their house? And then act shocked when they come back to a trashed house? OP and the wife were definitely part of the problem.

[sankalpjetithor]

Either start taking action when your daughter’s stuff start being used or do not take action at all. Why wait till money is stolen and locks are broken ???

[andylee]

How the BIL didnt get beat is insane. The op has the most insane self control ever

[Panwere]

The laptop was the final straw, and they did it on purpose and the reality of what it led to was proven by the wife/sister starting to see the husband/father's POV.. and trashing the house while they were gone just detonated the bomb that the twins built. Things like that are the reason relative sue each other. The deliberate trashing of "Courtney's room" was beyond deliberate. The stealing of the second laptop really is proof that it wasn't "just a party" as the "party" was cover for theft and destroying other people's property. The brother stealing for gambling would have been just bad enough. but the girls need to be in juvenile lock up. Betraying the wife/mother's (Marcy's) trust was what broke the camel's back, though.

There is nothing at all wrong with how the OP and Marcy handling it! Courtney never should have had to deal with any of that. When a teenager has to be so stressed to expose that people who are toxic have finally crossed the line completely. I partly feel sorry for the twins, but only because their father is clearly a failure as a parent, a father, a man, and a human being.

Sometimes, setting firm boundaries and staying calm can work wonders. It’s amazing how standing your ground respectfully can shift the dynamic

[Amelia_offcial_lol]

My anger issues could never wait that long

[Hoods_]

Call the frickin police they are 18 they are adult adults

[Ullabulladulla]

Wow the wife is the kind of person who has no love for any one but herself..
