AITA for kicking someone out of my home for telling my nieces they need to cover up because they are men in the house?
Backstory: one of my friends I graduated with last year just had twin girls so she and her fiancé brought the girls down so I could meet them. My friend brought one of her friends. I was watching 6 of my nieces and 1 of my nephews ages 9 months-12 years.
Now to get into what happened my oldest three nieces just got back from cheer practice and we’re in shorts and their cheer shirts. When my friend walked in with the twins, fiancé and friend I was hold the baby feeding her so I said hello and went back to feeding the baby.
We were laughing have a good time the kids were playing with each other. All of a sudden the girl looks at my oldest neice and yells that she needs to get some clothes on and how there are men and the girls shouldn’t tempt them to look. She then tried to yell at my other nieces when I yelled at her. “You do not need to yell at my nieces.”
And “what they are wearing is fine. There are two boys in this house and one of them is 3 years old. The other one is our friend’s fiancé and father of her twins. And you need to get out of my house because you will not make my nieces feel unsafe in their aunt’s house.” My friends and her fiancé do not think I was to harsh or the ahole but my mother thinks I could’ve been nicer.
Here’s what the top commenters had to say about this one:

NTA. This was not remotely harsh given what this woman said. That woman is awful, and your nieces needed to see just how wrong she was. “The girls shouldn’t tempt them?” If anything, you showed remarkable restraint.

NTA. If she’s that insecure best to move on. She’s being ridiculous. There are women everywhere scantily clothed. What is she going to do? Blindfold him? She needs therapy!

NTA and you showed more restraint than I would have. People tried saying that to my daughter once and Learned my kindness is Not a weakness, but a choice for their emotional safety, not mine. People disgust me with that logic.
