A father recently shared his experience dealing with his wife's negative attitude towards their son's profession as an aerial performer in a circus. Despite the son being a successful independent contractor and headlining a popular circus, the wife only describes him as a simple circus worker, assuming he is poor and struggling.
When a friend offered to pay the son for entertaining her kids at a birthday party, the wife laughed and implied he may be available due to his supposed lack of work. The father then corrected her, leading to tension and embarrassment at the social gathering.
The father wonders if he was in the wrong for defending his son's profession and calling out his wife's disrespectful behavior. Read on to see what others had to say about the situation.
