Babysitting can be pretty expensive, so if a family member offers to babysit for free, it’s very tempting to take them up on that offer.

However, it’s a good idea to think really carefully if you trust this person not only with your baby but also with your baby products.

In today’s story, one woman is furious at her sister-in-law for throwing out her expensive baby products while she was babysitting.

Keep reading for all the details.

AITA for kicking my SiL out after she threw away most of my single use baby products and even formula?

I’m 19f, I have a 3 week old baby girl.

I do still live with my parents, but since I pay rent equally, they say I can have just as much of a say in who comes and goes from the house as they do.

I’ve never actually taken advantage of this rule until recently enough.

I have a brother, who’s 26 and his wife is 24. They’re “crunchy parents” to a 8 month old.

Here’s what she means by “crunchy parents.”

Basically what that is is stupid, they use reusable wipes/nappies, think formula is the epitome of evil, babywearing, the list just goes on.

I’m the complete opposite, pacifiers, supplementing with formula due to low supply, disposable wipes and nappies.

They are completely against the products I use and often give me things like SiLs breastmilk in bags, disposable nappies their LO has grown out of, etc.

I’ve used some but it’s not really my cup of tea.

She let her brother and SIL babysit.

On Monday night, my bother and SiL were minding my baby for me since it was my birthday and my babys father (not together, very close friends and co parents) took me to get some dinner in one of my favorite fast food places.

It was great and really relaxing.

When I got home that evening, my SiL said that she did some cleaning and “threw out anything I don’t need”.

This immediately gave me red flags but they were in a hurry to get out the door and left almost immediately.

Her SIL threw out pretty expensive baby products.

When I went into the nursery, every disposable nappy and wipe pack was gone and replaced with some reusable cloth ones.

Same with my formula, there was 8 tubs and all of it was gone.

I’m not able to replace them at the moment and soley breastfeeding isn’t sustainable for us.

I was extremely angry and I just turned my phone off to avoid being mean to my SiL.

She wants her SIL to pay her back.

She and my brother came over yesterday to collect something they forgot and that was when I confronted her. I told her she has to replace everything she dumped.

When she said she can’t afford to, I said fine, just get out and don’t come back until I’ve been reimbursed or everything is replaced with the original items.

My brother thinks I’m being a massive jerk and he’s on his wifes side.

Our parents think im being completely reasonable here but they think telling her essentially not to come back is taking it too far. AITA?

Her SIL basically stole her products. That’s not okay. She does need to replace them or pay her back.

Let’s see how Reddit reacted to this story.

This person may not ever let the sister-in-law come back.

Yes, what they did was stealing.

Even people who don’t have kids know that formula is expensive!

This person thinks her brother should’ve stopped his wife.

Another person points out that reusable products don’t work for everyone.

Throwing away someone else’s products is worse than stealing.

Why would you do that?
