A 13-year-old boy’s conversation with his deadbeat father over Christmas gifts has caused an uproar in the world of social media. 

The conversion was leaked on Facebook by his mother who praised her son for handling his deadbeat father. The conversion shows the boy asking his father for Christmas gifts and he was told that they would have got some if it were not for his mom. 

The deadbeat father stated that her response to him asking her to send him their sizes as the reason for his action. The teenage boy insisted that his father’s issue with his mom shouldn’t stop him from sending them Christmas gifts. The 13-year-old boy also revealed to his father that he saw his mom’s message and that she actually sent him those sizes as he requested.

Many people had mix reactions concerning the leaked conversation between the father and his son and this is what different individuals had to say: 

One Facebook user said: “What’s that got to do with us”? “Bold but necessary question.”

Another said: “Smart boy.” “Nothing concerns the boy with their personal problems.” “He is going to be a good decision maker in the future.”

Another Facebook user said: “The boy is a teenager and to me he did not insult his father he was reminding him that they’ve got nothing to do with their parents fight, rather him taking his responsibility as a father. I once wrote a two pages letter to my father pouring my heart all out and he said my mom was the one who told me to write and she knew nothing about the letter mind you I was 13 years old.”
