A woman has sparked a heated debate on Reddit after she fired her sister-in-law from a babysitting job. The woman's son had been left heartbroken after his aunt's boyfriend broke his custom-made action figure of Odo from DS9. The mother had specifically asked her sister-in-law not to let the man around her son, but he had somehow managed to break the toy.
Despite her sister-in-law's pleas for forgiveness and promises to never let her boyfriend come over again, the mother decided to fire her from the job. The sister-in-law relies on the babysitting job to make ends meet, but the mother's decision has left her broke.
Redditors are divided over whether the mother was justified in her decision or if she was being too harsh.
