The midday light washed through the living room, but the tension was thick enough to touch. Tom, a man in his early thirties, watched his nearly seven-year-old daughter—a bundle of restless energy—ignore his repeated calls to come eat. The father’s patience, usually steady, began to fray when the television remote sailed through the air and shattered on the floor, followed by a sharp cry of defiance.

He took her arm in a firm grip, lowering himself to her level, his eyes holding a cold authority and a serious warning about the consequences of such disrespect.
