A man has asked his dad for his college fund back as a Christmas gift, sparking a family feud. The man’s dad paid for his stepbrother’s surgeries with the college fund, leaving him to pay his own way through college.

Some relatives helped him pay for college, but his uncle did the most and berated him for his response to his dad. The man is torn between pleasing his uncle and not wanting to have anything to do with his dad. Read on for the reactions to this family feud.
