“You have no right to quiz me on my own child”: 34-year-old dad quizzes ex-wife on their 18-year-old son after noticing how hands off she is, she takes offense but the internet backs him up

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. Not everyone is born with the same amount of intelligence, sense of responsibility, or moral code. Obviously, the debate between nature versus nurture is real, and how we're raised definitely affects who we become as people. But there's a bit of genetics at play too. If we have phenotypic genetics that affects our height, hair color, and face shape, then why wouldn't we have the same genetics at play affecting aspects of our personality? IQ can be passed down, and a family of geniuses will keep having kids who are going to be born slightly smarter than the average person. A family of addicts will also have a child who will be at a predisposition to adopt an addiction. They're just things we need to understand and deal with as we get older.

In the story below, the protagonist had his first child at 18. Since then, he's done his best to be a father and maintain an appropriate and healthy relationship with his mother, his ex-wife. Things don't always go as planned though.

If one isn’t born with some great intellect, or sense of responsibility then those things can be learned. Parenting is something that takes an immense amount of intelligence and sense of responsibility, but can we safely say most parents harbor those qualities? I think not.
