Look, TC, I'll give you the straight dope and bypass the whole communist thing, though really, look up the word. It doesn't mean what you think it means.
What your uncle/Aunt did was wrong. You do not give expensive presents to someone's child without FIRST speaking to the parent about it. You certainly don't then engage the parent in an argument over the way they are raising their kid, right in front of said kid. You'll understand the why's and hows when you're older, and maybe contemplating having kids of your own. But let's just say that it's not something you do in a polite society.
I know it sucks that someone wanted to give you something you really wanted and your mom said no, but it happens to all of us. Sometimes it's justified sometimes it's not. But until your responsabilities begin rising to the level of those of an adult and you have a job and place to live and you aren't mooching off your parents, them's the breaks buddy.
We've all been there, and likely, your kids will be too. You and your wife will probably have a set of ideals/rules you want to use with your kids, and odds are your kids are going to hate them, no matter how reasonable or important you think they are. Probably one of them will come into a gaming forum board and call you a communist.
Ahh the great circle of life.
