Our young teen son is supposed to pack his bag for afterschool sports. I drive to pick him up to take him to sports practice. Well, he didn’t pack a towel which is a necessity (pool sport). Spouse wanted to put in a hot pink hooded towel with a large unicorn on it (from another child’s younger years) as a lesson in “this is what happens if you don’t pack your bag”. I was in a hurry and stressed…gave spouse an earful about not helpful and made him go get another towel…our son is still finding his footing socially, so I was being protective and worried this would lead to him being made fun of at practice. AITA and should have let my spouse prank our kid?
