'I told him I would never look my young children in the eye and tell them their mother is dead and they need to get over it and accept a new mother.'

We often don’t understand many things that people do and why they do it the way they do. And honestly, we can’t really judge because we don’t fully know their. However, life happens and we may be put in the same or similar shoes. Well, then we can see more clearly and understand why a person acted this way or be the opposite –like his dad. However, the opposite of what the dad was expecting – he told him that he judges his actions even more now that he’s in the same situation.

Recently, one Reddit user took his story online asking for community members’ opinions if he was being a jerk for telling his dad he judges his actions even more now that he’s a widowed parent too. He thinks he may be wrong for delivering a message that he doesn’t have any grace for him that now he’s in his shoes. The post collected over 10K upvotes.

Redditors assured that the man was not being a jerk in this situation. “The OP’s father is incredibly selfish. He didn’t get in touch to try to help the OP, but to project his own onto the OP and try to get the OP to absolve him of guilt,” one user wrote. “I feel like the OP’s dad kinda knows he messed up , but like many emotionally immature parents, it’s always about them, yet it’s never their fault,” another added.
