That guy's parents had a talk with him.
Parent is saying he didn't enjoy wasting it. He didn't choose to be alone.
My family cut out the underperforming father when I was younger. Does that count?
That was my thought reading this. This guy's child will get to pay for his father's expanded comfort zone.
nope, with the kid, did the guy create a fatherly bond with the kid?
"Holy shit, our son isn't a wunderkind, he's a gigantic fraud" might be a good reason.
Yall being unfair to GP. His dad had the impulse at the time.
Yeah, how dare that father have any life experiences of his own.
Only because he has made it so. If he loved and accepted his daughter like most parents he wouldn't be railing like this.
But it sounds like thier son is a f'ng looser. He would've had some sense beaten into him if his parents actually cared.
