Reddit user u/DarkUnfair3875 shared that his parents got divorced when he was only a baby. His father married another woman and had kids with them. It’s just that OP’s mother took so good care of him that he got financially well off and with strong backing from his mother his quality of life improved much more than the kids his dad had with his stepmom. The father didn’t like that OP was living a really good life. He wanted OP to take into consideration and account everyone.
OP was confident he was not to be blamed for the life he was living, the life he got given to him by his caring. However, the anger of his father and the interaction he had with him where the father wanted OP to incorporate everyone made him reconsider his position. OP decided to share the story on the subreddit “Am I The A$$hole?” to know if a certain decision that you will read about in the story was right or not.

1. Let’s find out.
2. OP’s parents got divorced when he was only a baby.
3. OP was told there was no cheating involved in his parents’ relationship but the conversation between him and his mother made him feel like things were otherwise.
4. This is kind of sad.
5. So this sort of makes me believe the error is in the dad. He can’t carry relationships.
6. This was a complex statement to absorb but I am happy sense can be made.
7. OP is financially well out of all the children in the scenario and it is all thanks to his mother’s care. Because of this, he and his mom are capable of going on vacations his dad can’t.
8. OP is just in a better position than the others.
9. OP also got a car as a gift from his mother when he turned 16. His Dad would never be able to afford one for his kids.
I don’t see OP in fault in any way. His mother took good care of him, he is financially well off, his mother does good, and the two can go wherever they want. OP’s father prioritized kids, and OP preferred fringe benefits if I can refer to them as that. Ultimately, OP got a better life in terms of quality. No one can blame OP for that.

10. I love such moms.
11. OP would always choose to go to fun places and his dad wouldn’t like that.
12. When OP and his mom returned from a vacation to a place like the ones OP liked, his father was really angry.
13. OP’s father called him selfish for it. The father knew he could never afford such trips.
14. The father wanted OP to care and consider everyone. This made OP knock at the door of the AITA community to know if was an AH or not.

Here’s what the internet had to say about this:
15. There is a solution to every problem but when you are ignorant, the blame is on you.
16. Insecurity…this is what it all is about.
