A man is receiving criticism from his father’s side of the family due to his mother’s “petty” decision to have her cheating husband’s gravestone carved with the word “adulterer.”
Reddit member u/One-Poetry9190 spoke out about the claimed family conflict on the well-liked ‘Am I the A**hole‘ forum, alleging that his father passed away from a heart attack while having s*ex with his pregnant mistress.
The son, who appeared to find some humor in the circumstance, posed the question in the post’s title of whether he was wrong for refusing to have his father’s “gravely insulting gravestone” changed.
He explained, “My father and mother had a very difficult marriage toward the end of his life; he had an extended relationship with another married coworker and got her pregnant before he died.”
The Reddit user claimed that his father had plans to move out of the country and leave his mother behind so that he could begin a new life with his mistress in Canada, where they had already chosen a home.
He had recently moved out and was living with a coworker when he unexpectedly passed away while having s*ex, the guy claimed. “No legal separation or divorce paperwork was ever filed. All things lawful were being moved at the time. However, they were still happily married on paper.
He mentioned that all of him and his siblings had left the family home, with the youngest being 19 and enrolled in college.
Despite the fact that he works for a tech business, he is currently back in his hometown, where he is helping his mother in handling his father’s inheritance, which is why he is involved in the matter.
He said that his mother had written on his gravestone, “In loving memory of John Doe, son, husband, father, and adulterer,” because she was angry and petty. “The pregnant partner and my dad’s family are furious and want me to make it right.”
He continued, “I personally think it’s good, that’s who he was. He fit every description. I am unable to stop it because it is my mother’s plan.”
Later, the man wrote in the comments that his father’s mistress was expecting a baby and was “ready to pop any day,” but his mother had no intention of sending her any money.
He stated, “My mum has hired a lawyer, and since my dad passed away intestate, according to our state laws, everything falls to mom.” Mom won’t give anything for the side dish. When she leaves, she’s going to leave it for us.”
Most of the people who commented agreed that this wasn’t his responsibility to deal with, and a few fans praised his mother for publicly calling out her unfaithful husband.
If I was passing through a cemetery and saw it, I would DIE (no pun meant)! One commenter said, “Your mom is an icon.” ‘NTA. I’m hoping she burns some of his old clothing.
Yes, NTA, but I have to say that your mother is my new hero. She is a living legend. Another person commented in, “I can only aspire to this degree of hilarious pettiness. ‘ Please let her know that we all appreciate her, as it appears that the majority of this discussion agrees with her.
Another person made the following suggestion: “If they’re so offended by the exact description, then perhaps they should go buy a park bench at a park and devote it to him how they want to dedicate it to him and go there to “visit” him…this is so not your concern at all.”
What do you think about this wife’s action? Do you agree with her action, or are you against her? Please let us know in the comments, and don’t forget to spread the news so that we can hear from more people.
She is one of a kind, I applaud her. As for his side piece, she get’s nothing. She or her child are entitled to one red cent. As for me I would not have even buried him.
The kid did nothing wrong
I love it. Too bad more wives don’t do this.
I so agree with her decision he was an adulterer the worst kind with a married co-worker, for quite sometime and even got her pregnant!!! This low-life deserves everything she dishes out!
I completely agree with her. She may not have done this had he not been having sex with his mistress at the time of his death. The park bench is a good idea. Only your mother is responsible for what goes on the gravestone. If that is what she wants, it stays.
