[quote=Anonymous]The way you've written this is off-putting and confusing.  I think you're trying to strip emotion and biases out, but it reads as so impersonal and cold.  I mean, WTF, a cousin pushes a cousin, and there's a break, and an adult who was there (and not a parent of either child) says it was more than a simple push, that there was intentionality and purpose.

Under normal circumstances, you'd separate the kids - whether you're the parent of the aggressor or the injured.  Clearly they need a break.

and then WTF is the whole story of finishing the game.  That makes no sense.  There is something wrong in this entire family group.

But ,these are not normal times, and the kids themselves seem to be over it.

If I were the parent of the injured, I'd adjust something to give that child more one on one attention.  And if I were the parent of the aggressor, heck I'd do the same.

There is a flaw in this system.  From the way you've written it, it's difficult to judge what that flaw is.  [/quote]
