Aunt refuses to accommodate 3-year-old's allergies for monthly family dinner, tells sister-in-law to 'put the kid in a plastic bubble': 'You seem to have a bone to pick with a 3-year-old'

Family dinners can bring out all kinds of clashes within a family unit. Think of the show Gilmore Girls. The whole inciting incident of that program is that Lorelai's rich parents will pay for Rory's expensive private school as long as they all attend Friday night dinners at their house. And that causes enough drama to last seven seasons. When you have a large swath of personalities all coming together for the sake of… something, plus decades of family drama, you're bound to get some tension. 

However, the tension in this situation had a curious origin point when an aunt refused to take seriously the allergies of her nephew, and the kid's mom exhausted options on how best to care for him. So what resulted was a clash of personalities worthy of a television episode. Read on for the details and see who you think was in the wrong, since commenters were split.
