He Found Out His 23-Year-Old Son Lied About Being Gifted An Xbox From His Girlfriend And Was Actually Just Refusing To Give It Back, So He Went Off On His Son, Returned The Xbox, And Now His Son Is Furious

So, once his wife and son arrived back home a few hours later, he ended up going off on his son.

“It’s not like I can discipline him anymore, but I damn sure wanted him to feel shame and guilt for his appalling behavior,” he vented.

Elijah was not receptive, though, and just kept claiming that he did not understand the situation. His son also pointed out how Tonya only got to tell her side of the story. However, once he informed his son that the Xbox was gone, Elijah’s attitude completely switched. According to him, the 23-year-old started throwing a tantrum as if he were 5-years-old.

Elijah even called him a few choice names, too, and told him that he had no business butting into their personal relationship.

Perhaps shockingly, his wife also agreed with their son. She even asked him, “What happened to them figuring things out on their own?”

Three days after that fight, Elijah ultimately put a key lock on his bedroom door. And now, with his son and wife still mad at him, he has been left wondering whether getting involved in Elijah and Tonya’s relationship problems makes him a jerk or not.

Even though Elijah is 23 years old, does he have authority since his son lives under his roof? Or should he have stayed out of the situation? Why do you think his son tried to lie and hold onto the Xbox? Would you have given the game console back?
