Man kicks out parents for hurtful comments towards his children 😠

A man in his 40s, who has full custody of his two children, Marcus and Maria, kicked out his parents, who had moved in with them during the pandemic due to being high-risk individuals. The man had a rough relationship with his father when he was younger, and his parents do not know much about his children. They made hurtful comments about Marcus and Maria's hobbies and behavior, infuriating the man. When he came home from work and found out that his parents had told Maria to 'suck it up' while she was in pain and called Marcus 'weak,' he immediately asked his parents to leave. The man now questions whether he was too hasty in kicking them out and wonders if he should have tried to explain his issues with their comments again instead. What do you think?
