“YTA. Your son has every right to not like your boyfriend, sorry. I know it happened 10 years ago, but it killed his dog and took away his childhood for 2 years. On top of that, you basically left them for 2 years and lived with the guy who took away their home. Considering your boyfriend left fries in the oven again, I’d be nicer to my kid and ask my SO to smarten up.”
