Okay...well I have a cousin who is a bit rebel/crazy and she is disrespectful to my aunt. My cousin has always yelled at my aunt and my aunt has never been able to control her.
One day...they came over to our house for my party...my cousin and I have a good relationship so she wanted to stay to sleep over...my aunt didn't want her to stay...but my cousin insisted and yelled at my aunt and all this mess happened.
My cousin didn't wanted to get out of our house so my aunt grabbed her from the hair and pulled her out...my cousin ran away and my aunt left my house mad. We thought my cousin would take the bus and get home, however she stayed hidding behind some woods and later came back to our house.
Of course, she is a family member, so we couldn't say "You can't come in" so we let her stayed over the night and my mom told my aunt that she was here. My aunt got mad at my mom because we opened the doors to her...
Was this wrong? why?

this is a dangerous world for young girls, so I would have to say no that is was not wrong to open your door to her.... she is family, even if she wasn't, she was is need of a safe place to stay... it sounds has if they both need help, more than you are other family members can give them..... they need to see a councler for many reasons..... your cousin, to see why she is so angry all the time, and your aunt to get better parenting skills...... sorry, that was harsh, but I am a mother too, so I know how hard things can get with kids when they reach a certain age...... God bless

Your aunt is very much in her right to be angry at your mom. The right thing for your mom to have done was taking that monster to her mom's.
Your mom had just violated your aunt's right to discipline her daughter. You don't mention how old your cousin is, but I think she is not a 3 year old girl, and she needs some serious discipline and your mom is not helping at all.

YES & NO i understand you let her in because she is your cousin BUT now when she wants to do something & your aunt says no she will just runaway again, then she will get her own way again. when she turned back up at your place you should of phoned your aunt & asked what to do. then SHE could of said i will come back for her or let her stay,

your aunt is the problem, not your cousin. Your cousin is the result of the parent she has. With hope, she will change when she gets older. Pray for her. And don't judge her - she needs you and your mom.

No what you and your family did was right and your aunt has some deep issues and need to seek help. any parent who has to retort to physically controlling a child in an unruly manner needs help with hate issues. Your aunt sounds bipolar and needs to be medicated. your mother needs to look into this.
