Then, since she was so outraged, she may have taken it one step too far. More specifically, she decided to spill the beans and tell her son what had actually happened to his new favorite toy.
“The reason why the ball is gone is that your dad gave it away to someone else without asking,” she actually told her son. Yikes!
Obviously, her husband was immediately furious and even accused her of trying to turn their son against him. Her husband also claimed that she should have just “left it alone,” and now, he firmly believes that she is in the wrong.
At the time, though, she just felt like she was being honest and believed that her son deserved to know the truth.
However, since reflecting on the situation, she has also started to feel a bit bad about how it all went down. After all, she never wanted to hurt her son or damage her son’s relationship with her husband.
“But, at the same time, I don’t think it is right for my husband to interfere with our son’s Christmas gifts without consulting either of us first,” she vented.
So now, she has been left wondering if telling her son that her husband actually took away the toy ball was justified or if she just made the situation worse.
Should it matter if kids play with toys that are “meant for” a specific gender? Why do you think her husband cared so much if their seven-year-old son liked a “girl’s” toy? Would you be furious if your partner got rid of your child’s Christmas gift over such a concern? If you had been in her shoes, would you have told your son what really happened also?
