    I don't think that's really being disputed here. Whatever point this person is making they shouldn't be posting it on twitter of all places. Their kid will see this and probably never feel safe confiding in their parent again.

    This is some extremely narcissistic behavior.

    Edit: Also as noted this person is apparently referring to their recently adopted 18 yo son, which like yeah no shit they probably have some shit to work out. The foster system in the US isn't exactly the most healthy environment and they have presumably lost or been estranged from their birth parents what the fuck do you expect?

    It's not like they're a struggling parent, they chose to do this and as a lawyer they probably are pretty economically comfortable.

    The more I think about this the more mad I get.

      yeah being a figure of support for your children (biological or adopted makes no difference) is such a profound obligation that this is a deeply :haram: thing to say

      They shouldn't be posting that where the kid can see. Hard to argue with that.
