Also - if the boy did scratch on purpose, do something about it there and then. Don’t faff around making the worlds most unappetising looking dinner for the favoured child, or talking to your second-favourite child (instagram), or letting him continue to watch tv - speak to him, get him to say sorry, move him away from the tv for some time out. So many things to try out rather than just dump the child in his bed.
