Hello; You do not mention that the parents of the child stepped up and offered to pay or the damage.

Hello; Let me rephrase, You did not mention IF the parents of the child stepped up and offered to pay for the damage or are you stuck with it.

uh yea right. I assume you have no kids. its family, its a kid. If you don't want a kid to scratch glass don't leave something that will scratch glass within reach. My 1.5 year old dumped a cup of coffee on my lap top, that is my fault not hers.

while it sucks, that's life, kids are destructive

Hello; You are correct that I do not have children of my own.
I can see your point that you are stuck with the damage from your own 1.5 year old. It is less clear why your brother/sister would not be responsible for the damage their child caused to your property. I can see how you can decide to let it go for the sake of family dynamics. That would be you personal choice, but should not the parents of the child be responsible for the damage they cause even in the family.
Would the parents of a child be responsible for the damage the child did to a persons property who is not a relative??
 
lol

Reading the OP it says that his nephew was having fun feeding the fish, so i'm assuming that he allowed his nephew to feed his fish, and therefore should have been watching him. So should the parents still be held responsible ? Although it's not nice... S**t happens. It seems that's the attitude the OP has too, i could have read it wrong though :ROFL:
