My SIL, her husband and her kid (14) are staying with me and my husband for the next week because there’s a family funeral and all hotels were booked out for the blue grass fest and Kane Brown concert. We have a big farm house so it’s not big deal but SIL is very opinionated.

My SIL and my husband have different fathers. Her dad died from liver failure 10 years ago and his death date just past by not too long ago. He was a massive alcoholic and due to this, my SIL turns in to a bitch whenever she sees anyone drinking, especially people in her family. Well, my husband (who isn’t a big drinker) went out with friends last night as kind of a last “hoo-ra” because we will be welcoming our first daughter in to this world in about a month and he just wanted to celebrate his becoming of a dad. I encouraged him to go. I arranged for his Uber back home and he came in around 11pm last night. He was very drunk. He walked in the door singing “Let’s Stay Together” by Al Green, dancing, spinning me around the living room floor in some very sloppy waltz and laughing the whole time as he was tripping all over himself.

Now, my dad is an alcoholic too. So I get it, but honestly, I was having a fucking blast with my drunk husband. SIL comes in to the room and just starts laying in to my husband about him drinking. Screaming about how he was going to turn out “just like dad”, etc etc. At this point my husband’s mood is dead. He’s crying. I lost it. I told her “how he can he turn out like a POS when that POS isn’t HIS father? Get out of my house right now and don’t ever come back.” She immediately went quiet and said she couldn’t take her daughter out at this time of night and that no hotels had vacancy and my husband “knew better” than to drink around her and I told her that’s not my problem. Leave. The whole family is pissed at me and my husband right now for both him drinking in front of SIL and me kicking them out at midnight. AITA?

ETA: I never said her daughter or her husband had to leave. I told her she had to. She chose to wake them up and drag them with her after she caused problems.
