AITA for refusing to share my bed?

I am the youngest in the family.

My siblings were never around, so I mostly grew up alone.

I think that kind of made me selfish.

This teenager started to feel annoyed with her niece.

My sister recently arrived from California.

She brought her family along to permanently live here. I did not really care at first.

I thought I liked my niece. We grew up together. However, she is making me share things.

We share my driver. I did not really mind since we had the same schedule, and I could bring her along.

But she is really getting on my nerves.

Her niece got mad at her for coming out late.

Today, I burned my bum because I sat on a hot hair iron.

I came out a bit late. I made her late for school.

She got mad because I came out late.

I told her she does not have to go with me.

I said I do not care. It is my driver.

She made her niece cry.

Today, I heard she cried because I scolded her.

She also cried about how I do not share my room with her at my summer house.

I do not share my room or bed. She is annoying and is always farting.

When we sleep together, she sleep talks, kicks me, and moves a lot.

Now, her mom is mad at her.

My mom got mad because I made her cry.

She is upset about everything that happened.

AITA?

Uh oh, this sounds a bit harsh. It’s okay to want space, but the way she handled it hurt her niece.

A little kindness could’ve changed everything. After all, they’re still family, right?
