NAH. Wife's language barrier causes insecurity, but forcing English stunts son's growth. Suggest bonding through teaching Spanish.

"NTA. Trying to restrict your son's speech was a hair trigger a**hole decision, but it sounds like your wife just wants things to be like they were before your grandmother moved in. Which is an understandable desire, but she has had years to learn something that she knew was important to you and didn't. Hopefully you both don't linger over this too long as there are some pretty easy solutions." 💥
