'You're holding a grudge': 23-year-old college graduate refuses to attend father's wedding to second wife, after father missed his graduation ceremony for fiancé's last-minute "family emergency", sparking family drama

This son is feeling zero sympathy for his father after his actions during graduation. As the first person in the family to graduate from college, he thought his parents would do anything to be there to watch him receive his diploma and throw his well-earned cap into the sky. But unfortunately, his father had other plans. According to him, his soon-to-be wife had a so-called 'family emergency' the day before the ceremony and couldn't attend, which meant he wouldn't be able to attend either. A day his son had worked toward for four years suddenly felt half as satisfying.

So when the son receives an invitation to his dad's wedding, he turns it down. Why should he show up for his father's special day when his father couldn't be there for his? A grudge, some might call it. A fair play? That's up for debate. But one thing's clear: this son isn't budging. Even as family members urge him to let it go and call him petty and selfish, he refuses to sway from his decision.
