"AITA for wanting my sister to pay me back because my nephew lost my electric scooter?

Last year I bought an EMOVE Cruiser electric scooter which I’ve since modified to add more speed, a new handlebar and some other mods. The scooter itself was
not cheap, at $1500, plus mods puts it over $2000.

I have a sister(43f) and a nephew(13m) who I always let housesit for me while I’m out of town on business. I have pets and plants that I need taken care of and they always welcome a change of scenery. So I had to go on a business trip last month for a week and let them house sit. My nephew has always asked me about my scooter and I told him that it isn’t for kids because it’s extremely fast and I’ve expressly forbidden him from riding it multiple times. His mother knows about this as well.

Well, I come back from my trip and my sister tells me that I’m going to be mad, but my nephew took my scooter out, left it unattended and had it stolen. I was fucking pissed and asked them to leave.

I told them they’d have to replace it and my sister pleaded with me, they couldn’t afford it, it was a mistake and that he could do just do chores around my house to pay me back. I told her that it doesn’t replace my scooter. She said that any money would have to come from their vacation fund. I said, tough shit.

Our parents have gotten involved and said that I’m taking it too far. They agree that my nephew should be punished and I should be paid back, but to take away their family vacation is just cruel and petty. They suggested a payment plan. I told them, hell no, that I use my scooter to commute to work often and that I wanted it back immediately. Furthermore, he was warned not to ride it since it’s dangerous.

Now that I’ve started to calm down here a little, I wonder if I’m being an Ahole here by being so demanding and potentially punishing everyone else for my nephew’s mistake.

Edit:

Hey reddit, I went to sleep last night and didn't expect this to get so popular, so thanks.

Now to clear a few things up: People are taking offense to the verbiage "let" in my OP. Okay, let me explain, my sister and nephew view housesitting as a mini-vacation. I've offered money every time to them do the job, but they refuse, so I give them free run of the house and money for meals.

I had insurance on it, but they won't do anything without a police report. My sister did not file one, she didn't think the police would accept the report because it wasn't a car or some nonsense like that.

And no, I won't be filling a report with the police over my nephew. Listen I'm furious at him and my sister, but I'm not going to get him into legal trouble over this. He needs to be taught a harsh lesson, but jail time and a record isn't one of them. At least, not in this instance.

That being said I'm going to take some time, and think of an appropriate and harsh punishment for my nephew. I'll probably ending up accepting the payment plan, but insist on interest. It's not about the money, it's about the principle.

That should be all for now, thanks."
