How does one deal with a brother who got my underage son wasted while I was on vacation, then physically assault him while he was trying to protect his nephew from getting beat up himself? My son is 15 and trying to protect children from a 31 yr old 230 lb man. Is it wrong that I'm glad my son got one punch in? He certainly lost the physical battle, but won the war against his nephew being abused. I don't know what to do...... My heart knows what to do, my head wants to do something completely different. My son grows up in a loving home with support, gets good grades and is a happy and passive kid. Situations like that are what parents strive to protect their children from and thanks to my brother, my son has seen a side of lives that children have to live through, he is emotionally struggling with that. I don't know what to say.
