when addressed to everyone in the house because something got knocked over? DS#2 was crying in the garden because he got hurt and everyone came to see if he was OK. SOmeone knocked over one of DH's school box files that was balanced on a chair. DH's response was, I thought, quite aggressive and I said so.
He cannot see that his tone makes a big difference to how things he says are perceived and why the children (and me) sometimes find him a bit alarming to be around.
Would it not be more reasonable to accept that it was an accident and as no-one did it on purpose, he should let it go or ask for help to pick it up?
Or am I just a total wuss?

So would you interpret 'fgs who did that?' as quite aggressive?
