A Redditor recently shared about an entitled father-in-law who represents the stereotypical reason why most offspring-in-law don’t really like their parents-in-law. But it also serves as a reminder that in-laws are not all-powerful and hence, if they get out of line, like any other person on this planet, karma will rain upon them and hopefully it will be a transformational experience.

Life can be unfair sometimes, like if folks don’t really have a father figure in their lives, or, worse, have one but he’sjust no

Luckily, they can have a very loving husband like the one in today’s story who proved to his FIL he doesn’t know his son

The story was hot on the subreddit, and folks applauded OP for his witty comebacks and verbal tactics. The post got 6,400 upvotes with a 97% upvote ratio.
Others gloomed in the fact that, alas, these sorts of people are out there in the world, and one commenter pointed out the amount of such folk they’ve met are out-of-control disproportionate to the regular population. Even sadder is their experience that, more often than not, these are also the kinds of people most admire at face value.

The National Fatherhood Initiative, an organization aimed at researching, providing and educating on all things fatherhood, including programs, resources, and training, claims that there isa fatherly absence crisis in the USright now. Roughly 18.4 million children are without a biological, adoptive or step-father—that’s 1 in 4 kids out there.
Living without a dad is associated with a slew of various risks for the kids. Kids who grew up without a dad are more likely to have behavioral problems, more likely to commit crimes and go to prison, more likely to face abuse and neglect, more likely to abuse alcohol or do drugs, and are at a 4 time greater risk of poverty.
If a dad is involved, however,this meansa reverse risk of the above, plus a significantly reduced chance of obesity, teen pregnancy, and suicide. And if you do happen to be living without a dad, take it from @cherdleys, who posted a very heartwarmingPOV video of a dad who loves you.
