"A son or daughter should never speak ill of his parents in private, and to do so in public is rotten."

Why? If you so believe that parent is wrong...why not? It's brave. And never speak ill in private? You've got to be kidding me.

Agreed with the above and the rest of your comments on this thread. Read reply# 151.

Sometimes our family members are wrong and if the issue is important enough and the situation presents itself as it did for Chris Wallace here, one is morally obligated to stand for belief and principle over the family member even in public.
