Really puts what she did into perspective, huh. Or not, I get the feeling people are going to stick it to their guns and still say she's an irresponsible bitch as if they would do better in this situation.
But man, I feel bad for the aunt. It sucks when you are trying to help someone you love and accidentally make it worse. It feels bad not because the person says they hate you now (that's a normal spur of the moment reaction, they don't mean it unless it's like a recurring thing), but because there is no good way to help. You confront to perpetrater? They take it out on the victim. Talk to a superior? They are likely to make it worse. Try to physically take them out of the situation? That either involves talking to someone who can twist the narrative if given the platform, and taking legal action requires proof and the victim will also need to be brave enough to speak out. Shit is too real and it kinda hurts
