When a father's children started experiencing stress due to the current world situation, he got them therapy sessions. However, during a Zoom session, his wife left to take a nap and returned three hours later looking sad. When the father went to wake her up for dinner, he found her watching a recording of their daughter's therapy session. Furious that their agreement to respect their children's privacy had been broken, he forced his wife to confess to their children. The fallout was heartbreaking, with both children feeling betrayed and wanting nothing to do with their mother. The father turned to Reddit to ask if he was the a**hole for forcing the confession. The heart-wrenching story has gained over 25k upvotes and sparked an outpouring of support for the father and his children. Read on for updates on the situation and the fallout from the confession.
