Yeah. I really don't like the advice about how to talk to the kid in LW2. "We're not talking to Brother any more for reasons I'm not going to explain or mention again" is frankly way worse for the kid than "We're not spending time with Brother because his dog could have hurt you really badly, and he won't promise not to let it happen again, or even apologize."

The first one teaches the kid that their parents may just cut them off at any time for reasons they'll never get to understand. The second one teaches the kid that you need to apologize if you cause someone to get hurt or they might not want to spend time with you anymore. I know which one *I* think is a better lesson for kid!
