In a seemingly innocent request for babysitting help, a woman had no idea that her decision would lead to a startling confrontation. Upon her return, she was confronted with a puzzling and deeply unsettling sight, prompting her to make a drastic move: she kicked her mother-in-law out of the house.

On July 31, 2022, an anonymous female poster turned to the widely popular “AITA” subreddit to share her story. The woman’s mother-in-law was supposed to arrive at 6 p.m. on a Friday to babysit her three children: 12-year-old twin girls and a nine-year-old boy.

However, she showed up an hour late, at 7 p.m. The children’s bedtime was at 8 p.m., meaning they were only awake and active for an hour while she was there. Despite this, the narrator paid her $150 for her babysitting services.
