She Called Her Dad A Worthless Donor Before Refusing To Come To His Son’s Funeral And Now She’s Asking The Internet If She Should Have Been Nicer
A 17-year-old girl’s dad, Carl, left her and her mom when she was 6-years-old. She had no idea there were problems in their marriage, and her mom had no clue either.
“…It was a total surprise when I woke up that morning to my mom in hysterics because he was missing,” she explained.
“We searched everywhere, contacted everyone we knew, and still it took well over a year before we even found him.”
“Even then it was just so my mom could get a proper divorce. No contact since then.”
Her mom was amazing, but she sadly passed away in a car accident when she was 10-years-old. She was there when it happened, and she had to spend time in the hospital after that.
When the authorities couldn’t find her dad anywhere, they gave custody of her to her mom’s adoptive parents; her grandparents.
A few weeks ago, her dad reached out to her grandparents saying he would like to see her. Really, he was asking for her to be introduced to his 11-year-old son who was terminally ill.
The exact same year that her dad left her and her mom, he got a brand new family, and his 11-year-old son is not biologically his.
Her dad’s new son really wanted to meet her, and her grandparents let her know that it was up to her to decide whether or not to do this.

She absolutely refused to meet her dad’s new son. “4 days ago, Carl showed up at my house screaming that I was an awful child/sister because I refused to grant his son’s “dying wish”, and now the kid has already passed,” she continued.
She did feel sympathy for him about that, but she did not want him to blame her for it.
“I told Carl he had no right to my time because he was nothing more than a worthless…donor who didn’t even show up when my mom died.”
“Then I told him that under no circumstance can he force me to attend his son’s funeral because I didn’t know him, nor did I ever want to.”
Her grandparents do agree with her position, though they think she could have handled things in a nicer way since Carl’s child did just pass away.
She pointed out that Carl was terrible to her, and it wasn’t like she said he got what he deserved for being a bad dad.
Here’s what the internet had to say to her.
“If I was 11 and dying, it would not be my dying wish to see someone my dad abandoned years earlier who I had never met. It just sounds very weird.”
“The only one who should feel guilt for his son’s incomplete life is Carl himself for leaving you guys all those years ago.”
“He wasn’t there for you when you were an orphaned 10-year-old kid but he expects you to be there for him?”
“You know his son could have had several years to get to know you and grow up with you had your father actually been there and took care of you when you were 10. You would have spent 7 years getting to know him.”
“Excuse me, I don’t think he has any room to speak when he just up and DISAPPEARED and found himself a new family where he raised someone else’s kid but not his own.”
“If the kid hadn’t asked if the kid hadn’t been dying, would he have ever wanted to see you on his own?”
“He just wanted to use you to once again take better care of someone else’s kid rather than consider his own kid’s mental health.”
“You don’t owe him anything. But I’m sure he owes you about 11 years of back child support payments. Tell your grandparents to seek child support from him now that he’s made himself known.”
“You’re a kid. Nobody should expect you to react in a mature way, let alone in a messed-up situation like this.”
“Especially not when an adult man you barely know is screaming at you and hurling insults. Frankly “worthless…donor” is a very simple insult compared to what he deserved.”
