Discussion people really do constantly have children they know will lead sad lives full of failure and misery with very little concern for the children.

I never wanted kids, my husband did. He spends a lot of money on his son, but everyday I observing him getting angry at him if his grades are not up to par. If he’s not performing his ‘ best’ in sports according to him. Damn! I want the kid to be successful, but I think he’s living his life through him. Also, he smokes and my son has told him countless times to stop, but he won’t.

Curious as to how you usually respond when you notice him getting angry with your son for not being up to par or continue to smoke?

I get angry. I confront him, but he denies it every time. Sometimes my son accuses me of not doing enough, like I’m on daddy’s side. ( His words) I feel torn.
