[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many pieces of bacon total were there on the plate? If there were only three or four, then your son was being greedy and not thinking of everyone else. If there are three people, and there were nine pieces of bacon, then taking three strips was fair.

Your son will need to talk to your husband about this. Coming from you it will not have an impact on him. [/quote]

No matter how much bacon there was, a parent should speak to their child in a kind way and not name call. He could have made his point in a better way without making him feel bad. Also, my son would not be comfortable telling DH that sometimes he says mean things. He's not that assertive yet or articulate. He just wouldn't do it.[/quote]

This. Also know nobody's perfect and if your husband says this occasionally, and is great the rest of the time it's pretty good. 
Can you try to casually sit down with both of them? This shows your husband to apologie and to be accountable and it shows your son parents aren't perfect while validating his feelings and showing him how to talk things through.
