1 week agoAsking Eric: I'm banned from their house because of what I said about the kids' violent game
The punishment doesn't fit the crime. Banishment is too extreme. However, it's worth looking at what's happening outside of the frame. First, the word disrespectful was tossed around a lot. Is it possible that your daughter-in-law felt you were criticizing her parenting in an unwarranted way? This isn't to say that the kids should have been punching their uncle. It wouldn't have been my choice. But Uncle Rick also has bodily autonomy and may have chosen not to stop them because he didn't mind.
