'Don’t correct him, it disrupts his autonomy': Gentle-parenting mom lets her 5 and 3-year-old destroy her sister's house, until the aunt finally snaps after her nephew pours orange juice on her carpet

A mom's gentle parenting style finally came to a breaking point for her sister when their family was invited to stay at the aunt's house for two weeks. While their house was getting treatment for a mold outbreak, the aunt stepped up and allowed her sister, brother-in-law, and two young nephews to stay at the house. However, when the 5 and 2-year-olds' apparent feral nature started impeding on the house's well-being, the aunt finally snapped. The breaking point? A jug of orange juice was poured directly on her carpet; something had to be done. 

While the 5-year-old boy charmingly reasoned that his dinosaur toys needed a lake of orange juice, mom's response to it was truly what made Auntie snap. Read on for the patience-testing tale of a mom whose parenting style impeded on her family's hospitality. Because when your "parenting" style doesn't actually include any form of parental guidance, someone needs to step up, and in this case, it was a 26-year-old aunt protecting her space.
