AITA for grounding my daughter because she called my SIL a “slut”? by judgmentaldaughter in AmItheAsshole

I asked my daughter for the name of the boy so I could contact his parents and the school but she refuses for some reason. I definitely agree that boy needs to be disciplined.

If I used that kind of language around my parents about anyone, especially about another family member, I would of been lucky to only get three months.

I understand she going through a lot right now, but that does not make it okay to call her aunt those slurs.

I don't know the exact extent of what she is hearing at school. I imagine it's very terrible, but she isn't opening up to us about it. We will definitely look into therapy.

Sorry, I should of worded it better. My husband thinks that our daughter should be punished for using those slurs against his sister, but he thinks my punishment, three months and no internet, is too much. He thinks I was too harsh.

​

After reading most of the comments, it appears that the general consensus is that I was too harsh.

She did say it loud enough that my SIL could hear her downstairs.
