Babies can’t be blamed for being babies. No one knows what a baby can do next. At times they cry the very next moment they are happy. They spit up and throw up at times. In this story a kid puked all over her cousin’s costly shirt, utterly destroying it. The rational thing to do would have been to joke about it and giggle about how, yes, stuff like that occurs, and it would make a fantastic tale to tell. However, she eventually claimed reimbursement for the cost of her outfit. What is the price? Scroll down to read the entire tale and to know the cost of the top. Let us know what you think about the whole thing.

Hi all.
I gave birth four weeks ago, and we decided to have a ”baby ceremony”, where everyone gets to meet our lovely daughter Charlotte.
My cousin Alice and her parents were among the guests. The first thing I’ll say about her is that she has expensive taste. She’s the sort of person who has a minimum price range for how much she spends on clothing. She doesn’t own anything that isn’t designer and has some items of clothing that cost thousands. She is a banker and still lives with parents so can afford the lifestyle.
It was Alice’s turn to hold the baby and she was happy to at first, but suddenly Charlotte vomited on her. Alice handed Charlotte back to me and ran off crying, and spent the rest of the event crying in the car. I went to see her to apologise but she didn’t want to hear any of it. My mum gave her one of her shirts which was too big for her and she felt completely upset and humiliated.
Today I got a call from my mum, saying that she’d been on the phone to her sister (Alice’s mum) saying that they want me to reimburse the cost of the blouse (roughly $1800) since it was completely ruined.
I have said no. At the end of the day we all know what babies can be like. She took a risk wearing something so expensive knowing a baby was nearby and unfortunately it backfired. I feel bad for her but it was not my fault. Am I doing the right thing by refusing to pay up?
