‘AITA for asking wealthy sister to pay for cleaner after she hosted a party and wrecked my home?’

A stay-at-home mother, just a week shy of giving birth, turned to the internet after her well-off sister threw a house party that left her home in complete disarray.

It seems the sister flat-out refused to pay for a cleaner to fix the mess, sparking an all-out war within the family.

A party that went way off script

Taking to the infamous 'Am I The A**hole (AITA)' forum on Reddit, the original poster (OP) titled her now-viral post, "AITA for asking my sister to pay for a cleaner after trashing my home?"

She began: "To start with my sister is wealthy (on £100K ($122K) a year and her husband on £70K ($85K)) she has had her inheritance and is worth about £2 million ($2.4 million) from properties (given by my parents)."

Meanwhile, OP’s life is a stark contrast: she’s a stay-at-home mother whose partner earns £49K ($60K) annually. "My inheritance is much less than my sister's but I don't complain as I'm happy we have somewhere to live," she said.

They inherited their home, which OP described as large and the reason her sister requested to throw the party there. The agreement was simple enough. “The condition was she has to clean afterwards, and her husband won’t cook—they will order food," wrote the OP.

But the aftermath of the event was a nightmare.

“They have completely trashed our house, made food, and left it. Used my expensive dishes and cast iron and left it dirty. Drank about £50 ($60) worth of alcohol,” OP detailed.

"I'm pregnant and literally due in one week and my house is f**ked," she revealed.

When she asked her sister to pay for a cleaner, chaos ensued.

The OP’s family seemed to side with the sister instead of supporting her. "According to my family, I'm the bad guy wtf. My mum says I should have specified to them not to drink our alcohol?!?! I'm actually shocked. Apparently, because I Inherited the house I should just deal with it," she said.

The OP finally asked Reddit: "Just at a loss that I'm the bad guy and I shouldn't ask for the money back for the alcohol. What do you all think?"

Internet weighs in as OP asks sister to pay for a cleaner

The AITA community wasted no time in handing down their judgment: OP was NTA (not the a**hole) and her sister’s actions were unacceptable.

"NTA. You very generously allowed them to use your house on the condition that they clean up. It wasn't too much to ask. They trashed your house and left you to clean up their mess, and somehow you're the bad guy?" one asked.

"NTA. Have they seen how it looks? Cause I can see your family, you shouldn't throw a fit over 50 bucks of booze BUT that ain't really the issue is it?" another wondered.

"NTA, you made it very clear your expectation that they would clean and not cook and they went against your wishes. Don't do anything for these people again. Don't even ask them to come help out with the baby and if they ask why say 'Well with the way you left my place last time, you're probably gonna make more work for me hehe,'" someone else offered.

"I think your mom should shut up and you are right asking your sister to clean AND pay for the alcohol as both things were and weren't part of the agreement. Additionally, both should stop being jealous of you inheriting the big house. NTA," read a comment.

"NTA. It sucks for parents or other family members to be one-sided and not be considerate of the other's feelings. Do whatever you have to do, your sister is not a child she needs to take responsibility and never let her use your house for a house party again," another insisted.

The OP later returned with a rather shocking update.

“My mum now sides with me and cleaned up all the mess, which I’m very surprised about,” she shared, adding that her mother was "also angry with them because they asked her to pick up £40 ($49) in decorations and now they don't want to pay for it".

The OP's father, however, remained staunchly against her — believing she was “overreacting” by asking for reimbursement.

The cherry on top? “My sister has blocked me after I asked for money for the alcohol 😬 Apparently it’s ‘not kind,’” she revealed.
