[quote=Anonymous] OP, perhaps a way to solve this break, which is costing you money and time, is to ask your nephew to be in charge of getting it fixed -- taking it the shop, getting a cover, etc.,. on his time, not yours. Give him a date/deadline and the place but he has to run the errand. You can decide whether he should contribute money to pay for it. On another note, I'm probably the only one who'll post this or perhaps even think it, but if I had an aunt who thought that 'being like my mom' meant she could/should 'chastise and punish me like [her] own kids' I'd wonder what on earth was going on -- and I guarantee my mother would have been throwing hissy fits (she was/is very much in the camp of aunts and uncles aren't parents with a right to punish.....). Words like 'chastise and punish' are pretty strong....and at least in my very little corner of the world had very little to do with relationships with aunts and uncles..... [/quote]
