Dad Won’t Fund College For His Son Because He Is A Result Of A Mom’s Affair

In a surprising turn of events, OP discovered a family secret that shattered his world. Both his older brother and sister had their college education fully supported by their dad, but when it was OP’s turn to attend the same college, he was met with shocking news. His dad revealed that OP was not his biological son, a result of his mom’s past affair. Feeling abandoned and unprepared for the future, OP was devastated. The revelation left him questioning his place in the family and unsure of his financial stability for college. He had always assumed his parents had money set aside for his education, but now he found himself facing an uncertain financial situation without any prior knowledge or preparation.

OP’s mom was apologetic and regretful but lacked a concrete plan to help him. His dad, who had been dealing with other emotional challenges due to a recent family loss, reacted harshly to the situation, adding to OP’s feelings of hurt and confusion. Reading the supportive comments on his original post, OP realized the importance of financial aid, getting a job, and becoming independent to secure his future. Despite the initial shock and emotional turmoil, he decided not to seek out his biological father, as he felt he had a loving family already. After discussing the situation with his parents, they reassured him of their love and commitment. OP felt loved and supported by his extended family as well. While the family faced a difficult moment, they acknowledged their mistakes and vowed to work through them together. Now, OP is moving forward with plans to attend college, grateful for the advice and support he received, and determined to build a brighter future for himself while maintaining a close relationship with his family.
