Dear Mike Cares, how would you answer this question?

DEAR ABBY: I have been married to "Jeff" for nearly 50 years. He suddenly learned through DNA that he has a 52-year-old son. The son has visited him, and they have talked on the phone. The guy was conceived in the summer of 1970. I started seeing my husband in September of that year.

Jeff wants this man to leave him alone, and I can't deal with it either. We have three grown children, two of whom have become friends with this guy. There's no denying him. He looks more like Jeff than our son does. Evidently, the mother (who is deceased) never told him who his dad was. Are we wrong to feel this way? -- DON'T WANT TO DEAL WITH IT


DEAR DON’T WANT TO DEAL WITH IT: I find it hard to believe that a father wants nothing to do with a grown son he has just become aware of. I have a sneaky suspicion you are a petty, jealous, and vindictive twat who controls your sissy husband to such a degree that he is willing to ignore his first born. It is too bad that natural selection has not taken you off the grid and others have to stand by and suffer as they struggle to pretend they like you. Your own kids have embraced him, and I am certain your husband wants “the guy” in his life. Perhaps you could look at the bright side and know that because he is 52 he won’t hit you up for child support, so all the money you have been saving by serving your family mac n cheese and kool-aid for the past 50 years will be safe under your lumpy and stained mattress. On the other hand if he does come and visit you can always club him over the head and drive him to the nearest shelter, tie him to a telephone pole and know that some family would love to take him in, treat him with respect, love and offer him a better life.
