Internet Weighs In: Should Dad Force Son to Bond with Deadbeat Mom?

Alright, let’s see what the internet has to say about this family feud! On one side, we’ve got a dad who’s been there for his son through thick and thin, respecting his wishes to keep his long-lost mom at arm’s length. On the other, there’s a sister and an ex who think they know what’s best for the kid, pushing for a forced family bonding session on the father-son camping trip. It’s a classic case of “he said, she said,” with a heaping dose of drama and a sprinkle of moral ambiguity. ️ So, what do you think? Should dad stand his ground and let his son call the shots, or should he give in to the pressure and play family peacemaker? Let’s dive into the juiciest responses and see where the chips fall!
