Mum refuses to collect nephew from school after finding 'bunch of scratches' on TV
29.09.2022 - 13:05 / dailyrecord.co.uk
A mum has caused a debate online after she stopped picking up her nephew from school when her sister refused to cover the cost of a TV he allegedly damaged. The stay-at-home parent had been regularly collecting her sister's nine-year-old son from school and looking after him for a few hours before his mum, who is a single parent, could come and get him after work.
However, the woman said she then discovered a "a bunch of scratches" on her TV, which the schoolboy said he wasn't responsible for. The mum says she had watched a film earlier the same day and there was no damage visible at that point, the Liverpool Echo reports.
She said the marks "were all in a circular pattern, like someone had tried to clean it, but with something rough enough to leave scratches." The parent also noticed some "discoloured wet spots" on the carpet under the TV, which she was able to clean.
Her husband tried to fix the scratched TV, but nothing seemed to help. The mum asked her sister to reimburse the cost of her £1,500 television, which she refused to do as she felt the boy should not have been left alone and should have been watched more closely.
Taking to Mumsnet's popular Am I Being Unreasonable? (AIBU) thread, the mother said she had told her sister that if she didn't pay for the TV, she wouldn't collect her son from school anymore. In a post titled 'Not picking up nephew because my sister is refusing to pay for tv he scratched', she wrote: "Last night I messaged my sister and told her that she needed to agree to pay for the TV or I wouldn't pick up her son after school and watch him anymore.
"He is her son and she is responsible for making sure he is picked up, not me. She didn't reply after that. Usually I'm not one to stand up for
