My late wife (Jen) passed away four years ago, the kids were in their 20s, but this post is about Jack. Jack is 28 now and he took it really hard. Now he has issues with anything changing especially with me. We have had argument after argument especially with my wife’s old stuff. I but her clothes in the attic it’s an argument. I change up how the garden was and it’s an argument since Jen did it one way. I had conversation after conversation with him. I have recommended grief counseling but he won’t go.
I started dating again this year and I informed the family which went over well. No issues, I planned to keep everyone separate for a while but this happened yesterday. My girlfriend was over and my son stopped by to return some power tools. They saw eachother and before I could introduce her my son said a this is the bitch. We got in a huge argument and I told him his mother would have been disappointed in him, that he needs to show basic respect to my girlfriend. He left after calling me an asshole.
AITA, I know for a fact Jen would have been horrified in his actions.
