Grandpa refuses to let daughter replace the vase her 2-year-old son broke, constantly complains about it for months on end: 'He had the right to complain that my son had damaged his property'

Mistakes happen, especially when kids are involved. One time, I was over at a neighbor's house when one of the other neighbor boys broke the 2006 flat-screen TV, and it was a doozy. When I was a kid, I accidentally flooded the house because I left the bathroom before checking if the toilet had flushed all the way. Kids are a recipe for disaster, and the worst part is that they are usually unable to atone for their mistakes financially. They can give a tearful apology as much as they want, but they usually can't literally fix it with glue and ingenuity. If I broke my roommate's air fryer, I would give him a sincere apology that I hope he would appreciate, but I would also just buy him a new air fryer! But if a 2-year-old breaks his grandfather's beloved vase, his mom must be the one to atone for him with dollar bills.

That's precisely what happens in this story, but the grandpa is wishy-washy about whether he actually wants his daughter to replace it or not. When he talks to her, he says he doesn't, but he tells a different story when he discusses the matter with other people.
