    From the nephew’s perspective, they got slapped for no reason. If someone is misbehaving, use words before any other method.

      It was not for no reason, my nephew barged into my mother’s room, didn’t even knock, and started using MY MOMS PS2. He did not ask to use the PS2 either. It was not his.

        Apparently you were already in the room, which means your mom wasn’t alone. There was no indication to the nephew that she wanted to be left alone, since you were in there.

        Convincing me serves no purpose. You should have used your words with him.
