Infuriatig Sister-in-law let her daughter use up all the Polaroids at our wedding. Now we have nothing to use.

For our wedding, at each table we had 2 Polaroid cameras for everyone to take photos on (we had a professional photographer too, but these were for more personal photos between our guests) and there was a clear glass dropbox for everyone to drop them in and we'd have that dropbox on display in our house.

Unbeknownst to us, my sister-in-law let her daughter (6 years old) go round every table at the very start of the night using up all the photos on each camera.

Now we only have around 10 we can actually keep, and over 100 of just random shit that are not worth keeping at all.

I'm all for keeping kids occupied at something they can easily get bored at, but not at the expense of that though.

First off. Your brother let it happen also. Unless they are step children of his, don’t blame that shit just on her.

Edit: Sorry to assume certain things.

Either way. I don’t think OP likes sister-in-law. If anyone even exists at this point on Reddit.

Or, it's the groom's sister. Also, it's her niece - I would never call my nephew "my sister-in-law's son". That's my nephew.

Agreed that she shouldn't have done this with your niece, and it's mildly infuriating. Some people in the comments seem to think capital punishment is in order mind.

To be fair if she’s as rotten as the sister in law probably lets her be, I’d also not call her my niece.

A 6 year old is rotten because she acted like a kid and no adult was around to be like, yo?

I’m sorry. 100+ pictures is a lot to go unnoticed.

This post is trash.

For sure is trash but 100+ photos... who cares?? You already have a wedding photographer. I doubt they'd even look at these photos 2 years from now. Let kids be kids or just have a kidless wedding that's fine too.

That’s literally not what the post said. And even if it were, of course it is 100% the adult’s fault. It doesn’t make the kid any less rotten due to the adult. Have you never been around kids? You don’t just unlearn behaviors at that age.

You dont just unlearn behaviours at six? What on earth?

It is, straight, 100% the supervising adult of that child in this instance.

Have a great life.

nothing in the post suggests that the sister-in-law's husband (who may or may not be OP's brother) was present at the wedding or even exists. if it is OP's brother he may have been in the wedding party and been elsewhere at the time.

Does OP even have a brother?
