FATHER HAD PUNISHED HIS SON, AS HE WAS BEING RUDE TOWARDS HIS MOTHER, WHO WAS WORKING HARD

A father had catched his 12-year-old son, as he was screaming at his mother, who was working hard, about the laundry. Then he had talked with his son, and punished him, as he needed to take care of himself, in terms of house errands, and his 10-year-old brother, for a week.
The man had shared his story on Reddit’s r/AITA subreddit.
The father had catched his son, as he was screaming towards his mother about the laundry. “I came home about a month ago and caught my son yelling at his mom about his clothes. He was asking her how hard it was to make sure his clothes were cleaned. I took him to the laundry room and made him do laundry for the family. I taught him what clothes could go together and what should not.”
Then he stated that his wife was a teacher, who was working hard, and he is a man that is trying his best to help her with the house works. “My wife is a teacher and she works her ass off to make sure we have a nice home to live in. She tells me what she needs me to do and I take care of it. Beyond my share of the housework I mean.”
Then he had send his wife to a trip to Mexico, with her school, as he punished his son with house works for a week, while the mother was away, in spring break. “Well my kid needs to be punished and I thought of the best possible way to do it. I’m sending my wife to Mexico with her school friends over spring break. I’m going to work from home that week and keep an eye on the kids. It won’t be difficult because I’m putting the older one in charge of the younger one. He will be doing laundry, making breakfast and lunch for both of them and making sure the kitchen and dining room stay clean.”
Than he had talked with his son. “He said it’s unfair to make him work over spring break. I asked him if he thought it was a full time job to do all that I was expecting of him. He said yes it was a full time job. I pointed out that his mother and I both have full time jobs and still manage to do everything that he is whining about.”
Then he called his grandmother to stay there for the spring break, as he tried to ran away from his responsibility. “He called my mom to see if he could stay there for spring break. She tried to tell me I was being cruel to her poor baby. I asked her what exactly her and my father would have done to me if I had yelled at her for not doing my laundry? She said that it was a different time. I said he could stay with her if she was willing to tell him, in front of me, all the punishment I endured when I lived at home.”
Here are some of the comments of the Redditors.
“NTA, but in addition to having him learn about the household tasks your wife normally handles, you also need to find out where he learned this behavior. Is he listening to incels on the internet? How could he possibly think yelling at his mother about his laundry was something he could or should do?”
“I think you have a deeper issue that you need to work on with your son. I also think if your older son has been exposed to misogynistic attitudes, you should make sure your younger son doesn’t pick up on it, too. They both need to learn that women are partners, not maids, and that they need to pull their weight.”
“It may not have been abuse but she’s setting a completely different standard for her grandkids. NTA”
