Imagine carrying a secret for 20 years, a secret that could potentially shatter a fragile relationship with a family member. This is the story of a man who did just that. He had a tumultuous relationship with his father, a man who abandoned him as a toddler, only to reappear sporadically in his life. A man who sought to turn him against his loving mother, and even tried to gain sole custody of his half-brother. The son’s secret? He was the one who stopped his father from getting custody, by writing a brutally honest letter to the judge. And now, two decades later, he’s finally told his father the truth.
