This is not Skye's fault and not her problem. She doesn't want her time with her sister (OP) to involve babysitting a small child she has no relationship with. There is no need and no moral justification to tell HER to explain to this child why she doesn't see her as a relation. It isn't really OP's responsibility to do it but her taking it on and delivering the information as kindly and gently as possible is the most likely way to resolve the matter.
Dump your partner and move out as soon as you can. For whatever reason, her family have decided that anyone she dates is a peasant who should be overwhelmed with gratitude at this princess agreeing to spend time with them and she is going along with this. Don't put up with any more of it.
Don't forget, his punishment is not JUST because of what you said, but it's part of a pattern of behaviour. He will probaby be fired fairly soon and he will deserve it.
YTJ but not necessarily abut concert tickets. YTJ for trying to teach your daughter than women can't stand up for themselves and mustn't go out without A Man to look after them. THAT mindset is more likely to endanger women and girls because the biggest risk to any of us is men we already know, not random strangers, and the best way to protect daughters is to sign them up for self defence classes (as these teach, not just physical skills, but situational awareness and risk analyses. Train her to simper at the nearest Man for protection and she will end up finding how many of those Male Protectors expect a 'reward' for their services.
