AITA for potty training my niece and nephew.

Parenting styles can vary drastically, and what works for one family can feel completely wrong to another. When it comes to milestones like potty training, emotions can run high, especially if someone else takes the lead. Recently, I found myself in the middle of this exact conflict. While babysitting my niece and nephew, something unexpected happened — and now I’m being accused of overstepping.

Did I Cross the Line?

Let’s find out what other Redditors think about this story.

Looking back, I honestly never set out to potty train my niece and nephew — it just happened because they asked and were clearly ready. I thought I was helping them gain independence, but instead, I’ve found myself facing backlash from my sister-in-law, who feels I crossed a line. Now I’m left wondering: did I overstep as an aunt, or was I simply supporting the kids in something they wanted for themselves?
