What Would You Do

Actually the article states the father did occasionally visit the child until the mother moved out of state.I'm glad she allowed them to
spend that precious time together.And when he gets older I'm sure Judah will also be grateful for it and appreciate and respect his mother for granting a dying man his final wish.

It sounds to me like the Mom made a good decision.

I suppose that when a person is diagnosed with a terminal illness that their perspective may change.

I think that she did the right thing. She did not let spitefulness keep her child from having that precious time with his father.

I agree. And not only does that person's perspective change but maybe our feelings and/or emotions for that person should change as well. The man is on his deathbed...the arguments and disagreements are over. It doesn't hurt anyone's pride to give in and be a little human every once and while.
