My Entitled Cousin Destroyed My Car After I Refused to Lend It—Now Her Parents Want Me to Pay for It

My cousin always takes my things and ends up ruining them—clothes, makeup, even my headphones. After years of saving, I leased my own Ford Escape. It was precious to me. My car, my rules.

Right before her 18th birthday, she texted me:

Cousin: “Hey, I’m borrowing your car this weekend—mall, road trip, everything. Don’t even say no.”
Me: “Sorry. My car is mine to drive, I need it.”
Cousin (rolling her eyes): “Ugh, you’re SO SELFISH. It’s my birthday, and everyone expects me to have a car. You’re ruining my life over a stupid car! It’s YOUR fault!”
