I (25F) have two siblings, my older brother Alex (28M) and my younger sister Lily (19F). My mom recently came up with this idea for a “family christmas gift” that we would all chip in for. She told us it was something that would benefit everyone and wouldn’t reveal what it was, just that she needed us to send her $500 each by the end of the month. Now $500 is a lot of money for me. I just started a new job and am still trying to save up after struggling financially for a while. I told my mom I needed more details before I committed, but she kept brushing me off and saying it was a surprise. A few days ago, I found out the truth. Lily let it slip that the family gift is actually a down payment on a new car for Alex. Apparently, his car broke down recently, and he needs a replacement. My mom thought it would be a good idea for all of us to pitch in and get him something nice for Christmas. I was furious. Alex is 28, has a stable job, and makes way more money than I do. On top of that, my mom never asked any of us if we were okay with this. She just assumed we’d all go along with it. When I confronted her, she said it was only fair since Alex does a lot for the family and deserves it. I told her I wasn’t contributing and that it was ridiculous to call this a “family gift” when it’s only for Alex. She got upset and said I was being selfish and ungrateful. Alex chimed in, saying I could afford it if I “really cared” and that I was just jealous of him. Even Lily sided with them, saying it’s not a big deal and I’m ruining Christmas by making this an issue. Now my whole family is mad at me. They’re saying I’m cheap and that I’m being petty over something that’s supposed to be a nice gesture. I feel bad for causing tension, but I also feel like I’m being taken advantage of.

My brother, "Tom", has been obese since his early 20s, he drinks 1-2 sodas with every meal, he has a dessert w/every meal, he never eats veg, he drinks beer every week, he eats a lot of pasta/carbs/breads. I'm not hating on my brother, but he's obese due to his eating habits. Tom has been with his wife, Amber, since college, they both eat the same. They have a daughter together "Mary." The past 3 years Mary has gained weight, she's starting to eat like her parents 1-2 sodas per meal, desserts 2-3x a day, no veg, lots of cheese/pasta/bread/red meat. She may be approaching the "obese" category. It's pained me to see Mary suffer, she stopped riding her bike a few years ago, she doesn't participate in any outdoor activities anymore, she gets winded going up stairs - she's 16. I haven't said anything until now because I don't want to "fat shame" her, I still love her regardless. But, I can't help but worry about her health & happiness, not to mention she has gotten a lot of cavities over the past several years b/c of sugar. Last weekend I went over to Tom and Amber's house to have lunch outside. At one point Mary's parents went inside, so my niece and I got to hang out alone for a little while.. She seemed sad and I asked what was up. She told me that she had mentioned wanting to lose weight to her parents. They basically told her that weight was all genetics and she had no control over her weight, and she'll eventually be the same size as they are. My niece brought me into that conversation saying "well OP is your sister, she's not fat. I could have those genes too!" I didn't really know the best way to talk to her about it, and I didn't want her to think what her parents said was true. So, I told her that there is a healthy way to control her weight if she's not happy with it. I asked how much soda/dessert she usually eats. I told her one thing that would help was to drink water with breakfast/lunch/dinner and only have soda as a treat. I also told her to try only having a dessert only 2-3 times a week, instead of with every meal. I told her that over time reducing her intake of things like soda and sugary snacks will slowly lead to weight loss. I said that would help with cavities too as soda and sugar are bad for your teeth. I figured that was safe enough advice, that I wasn't fat shaming her, and that it would be pretty much okay to tell anyone to cut back on soda and store bought treats with every meal. Tom and SIL are angry at me. They told me I'm giving her unrealistic standards to live by. And that I've now changed their daughter, b/c apparently she has taken my advice and is...

A few days ago, I (F24) hosted a sleepover with two of my friends, both also 24. At the end of the night, while we were all taking off our makeup, I told them they could use any of the skincare products in my bathroom cabinet. I'm really into skincare and have a variety of products, ranging from drugstore to high-end. A few moments later, one of my friends, Jane, told me she accidentally dropped and broke one of my skincare products. It was the SK II Pitera Essence, which retails for about $134 CAD. The bottle is made of glass, so it's quite fragile. It was about 80% full since I had just bought it a couple of weeks earlier. She apologized and said she felt really bad. I told her it was fine, but when I mentioned the cost, she was shocked. I then asked if it would be possible for her to pay me back, not the full price but at least part of it. She seemed uncomfortable and said she didn't think she should have to pay since it was an accident and I had offered for her to use the products in the first place. Since then it's been awkward between us and we haven't spoken. Our other friend who was there isn't taking sides and is staying neutral about the whole situation. AITA for asking her to help cover the cost of the broken product? EDIT: I wanted to thank everybody for their input. I didn't expect this story to get that much attention. I've been reading the responses you guys left, and just to clarify some things: I didn't tell my friends about the price beforehand because it would be kinda awkward to say "Hey, you can use my stuff but be careful, it's really expensive". I trusted my friends to use my products responsibly. I keep all my skincare in the same cabinet regardless of cost, because I use them on a daily basis so it's just more practical. Jane is not wealthy, but she is financially stable. She admitted that she knew it was an expensive product (she's heard of the brand before) but didn't realize it was THAT expensive. This isn't a hill I wanna die on, so I'm not going to press the issue further with Jane. I texted her to let her know she doesn't have to reimburse me. Thank you again for all the perspectives.

My best friend is 31F and I am 28F. She has one child, my neice (not biologically), aged 10. I have 2 boys, aged 10 and 5. My bestfriend is married, makes over $140k a year combined income, has a private tutor for her daughter and is able to manage her time "efficiently" because she has a live in nanny who cares for my neice 90% of the time. Despite all of these luxuries, she complains about everything and is incredibly negative. I am widowed. I work full time from home and bring in roughly $27k a year. My kids are both fully remote. I cannot afford daycare or a tutor. Its 100% my responsibility and no, I dont complain. I just dont have time to do anything besides work and helping my kids with school work. As it is I have a hard time cooking dinner due to my work schedule (evenings, 1p-11p). Back a month ago my friend reached out and said that she felt we were drifting apart because we only spoke once every couple of weeks and never hang out. I explained to her that I'm just incredibly o__rwhelmed right now and that I dont have time to stop my day and make plans to visit due to the fact that I have so much on my plate. She said she understood. Last week she messaged me again and said that my neice felt like I didnt love her anymore because I never come around. Again, I explained my situation. At this point I was irritated because I felt she was trying to guilt trip me. She promised that wasnt the case. We moved on. Flash forward to yesterday. She reaches out and I was busy. I told her we would talk later. She then has my neice send me a request on the kids messenger on FB and she messages me saying "Auntie why dont you come over anymore? Did I do something wrong?" I respond with "No sweetie, I'm just busy." She then said "Oh mom said you were mad at us and she didnt know why so she said to ask you." So, I texted my friend and flipped the f__k out for lying to my neice like that and making a 10yo feel like she had done something wrong when I very clearly explained my situation. Shes now saying that my blow up was unnecessary and that I need to "reevaluate" the way I handle situations. AITA?
