The world of step-parenting is a challenging one. You want to connect with your partners children but you have to be cautious. The OP im this story seems genuinely caring. He is a family man. Tragically, he is sterile and can't conceive children of his own. He is now married to a woman that he loves. His wife already had a son when they met. Her son was 12 years old then and he's 15 years old now. Her son and OP have become close and having a loving relationship. Unfortunately, the teenaged son has a strained relationship with his biological father. He's described as being emotionally distant, cold and irritable. He is always saying he 'needs to make a man' out of his son. OP found out that the bio-dad started trash talking about him to the son. He's trying to get negative ideas in the son's head. He told him that OP is just using him to get close to his mother and that he's not his real dad etc. The son came home crying and distraught. OP loves the teenager unconditionally and let him know that. The son decided he wanted to call OP 'Dad' publicly after that. Naturally, the bio-dad became furious and blamed OP for the current state of the relationship with his son. Help the moral judges of Reddit to decide who is in the wrong.
Interesting question to start. Usually when a step-dad is promoted to be called 'Dad' that's only a positive step. But this story gets very complicated. Buckle up.
Shocker, another emotionally distant and cold man put into play. Irritable father's usually lead down the a$$hole trail pretty easily.
