[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] The apology and explanation route would make sense if 1) he was doing this from a place of love and concern for your mom who was genuinely upset, but you stated that you feel confident that is not the case and, 2) he had done it in a respectful and thoughtful way, rather then the obsequious and chiding tone that he used with you. Given the circumstances around this, I definitely don't think that the apology/explanation route makes sense. This is not about your mom or her feelings; this is about your dad trying to manipulate and control you. It is 100% a power-play. I would respond with a clear firm boundary: my relationship with mom it is between her and I, and if she has a problem with the way I celebrated her birthday, she will tell me so herself. [/quote] I totally agree. Ignore it and don't feel like you have to share the biopsy info.[/quote]
