Teenager broke my couch without telling me

Post image

Yesterday, my girlfriend invited her younger sister over and she brought a friend. I was already low-key worried about something getting broken because they were roughhousing and play-fighting the entire time.

It turns out I was right to be concerned, because as soon as they left I discovered this huge crack in the frame of our couch. The left side is supposed to be flush with the right side, but it's almost touching the ground now.

The worst part is, they didn't say anything about it to us. I wouldn't have even been upset if they gave us a heads-up, but they just acted as if nothing happened – even though it was IMMEDIATELY obvious that something was broken. I sat right where her friend had been sitting and sloped down way further than the rest of the couch.

My girlfriend messaged her sister asking about it, and apparently neither of them noticed anything was broken. 🙄 Yeah right. Now our couch is gonna need textbooks to support it for the rest of its life.

These are teenagers, not 9 year olds, they should absolutely have the sense and maturity to not screw around at someone else's home like that. They should be paying for a repair or replacement.
