Do you think his family was right to try and send him away?

No. They may have had good intentions, but it doesn't change that what they were doing was wrong.
That scene is what made me neutral on Shadowsight, I'm still not fond of him, but I do like that he had more self-respect for himself and his character than his parents.
I wasn't surprised that his parents would suggest he take the cowardly way out, instead taking responsibility for his actions and being honest. It was annoying to see them say he either had to run away or lie through his teeth, neither were good alternatives. Yeah they were proud he stood up against the idea, but in the end, it didn't matter, they still forced him to leave, having already planned everything no matter how much he didn't want to go.
It wasn't even him being in fear of living in exile, it was because he wanted to make things right, and prove himself to his clan. Tigerheart's actions as a father and leader were both wrong. He encouraged his son to be dishonest, and then helicoptered him from the real world, while also trying to pull wool over his clan's eyes, and the other leaders. Dovewing went along with it, so I didn't like her for the same reasons as Tigerheart in that scene.

Honestly yeah, Lionblaze was after him. It was only for his own safety, and I know Tiger and Dove just wanted to make sure their son could survive this. They're great parents for being on his side through this whole arc.

I'm not sure they were right, but I don't think it's bad parenting either?
Despite the fact I HATE Tigerjesus, I can understand him. This is his child and one of the biggest, and most temperamental, cats has made it VERY clear he wants his son dead. No parent is going to want their child to just hang around while several cats wish him death.

I'm kind of neutral about it considering that Shadowsight was in danger but he'd just screwed up massively and did need to face the consequences of his actions. I'm glad that he stuck around in the end though because what he'd done was pretty bad.

It may not have been the right thing, but as a parent, I can definitely understand wanting to send your child away from others who want to kill him.

In ThS, he literally gets iced by an owl and his very much dead while they dragged his body to moonpool and he still got 9 lives??

However, to fully embrace the Tigerjesus they should of had him die, then have to be left at the moonpool for 3 days before being resurrected, instead of immediately afterwards, would of really cinched it, all or nothing if we must suffer through it at all.
