A Family Feud: Son vs. Mother, With Wife in the Middle

In a tale as old as time, a son finds himself in a predicament, torn between his mother and his wife. The mother’s habit of commenting on people’s weight stirs the pot, leading to a heated exchange and an unceremonious exit. The wife, while agreeing that the mother’s comments were out of line, thinks the son might have overreacted by asking her to leave. This leaves our protagonist questioning his actions. Was he too harsh, or did he do the right thing? Let’s see what the internet thinks of this situation…
