This 54-year-old man has been excited for the birth of his twin grandsons. His son, Corey, 30, and his wife recently had twins. Corey is the last of his children to enter parenthood.

Even though he loves Corey, he doesn’t get along with his daughter-in-law, and she doesn’t like him, either.

“Throughout her pregnancy, I made Corey promise that I would get to see the kids first, just like I did with all my other children. He assured me that he would make it happen,” he said.

One week ago, Corey’s wife gave birth to their twins.

When he went to the hospital to visit them, he was stunned to find that his daughter-in-law’s father was already in their room and holding the babies.

He couldn’t hide the hurt he was feeling, and it showed visibly on his face and in his eyes.

“Corey apologized, mouthing, ‘I’m sorry.’ And I didn’t handle it the same way I did with his siblings; I didn’t hug or kiss Corey. I just had some small talk, congratulated them, and left abruptly,” he explained.

Later, Corey texted him to say sorry once more, going on to explain that his wife wanted her father to be the one to meet their children first.

Because Corey didn’t want to cause his wife any unnecessary anxiety, he accepted her wishes. Then, Corey assured him that he would find a way to make it up to him.

“I exploded at him through text, expressing my anger and disappointment. He apologized again, but I blocked him. Now, my wife and daughter, Danielle, are upset with me, claiming I’m breaking Corey’s heart and need to move on,” he shared.

He doesn’t agree with them at all. In his view, it’s understandable for him to be made for Corey breaking this promise that should have been easy to keep.

When his two other sons, Andrew and Daniel, heard what happened, they took his side. In their opinion, his daughter-in-law was starting drama on purpose because she’d known that Corey had promised him that he could meet the twins first.

Andrew and Daniel are mad at Corey for putting his in-laws’ wishes ahead of his own family’s.

Do you think he was wrong for how he reacted when Corey broke his promise?
