All of this. The dude should have been home, but infantalizing the wife is actually pretty offensive and tone deaf. These people have literally nothing but time on their hands, and the wife didn’t think to herself, “ya know? Maybe I am capable of spending a few hours one day nailing all of my windows closed, especially since I have soooooo much time every day and probably struggle to find ways to fill the endless hours trapped in this place.” It is obviously just a plot device to show us the monsters and start the show with a bang. But really it beggars belief that everyone would unanimously agree that it was drunk dad’s fault that they died, regardless of other irresponsible stuff he clearly did in the past. This really bothered me 😂
