An angry kid who didn’t get along with their dad told Reddit that their dad had been cheating on them.

After seeing the man behave in a strange way, the child got suspicious.

One day, the man got home late and didn’t know that his child could smell something strange on him. Only a few days went by before his child found out his biggest secret

A 16 year-old went to Reddit to ask if they were wrong for telling their family about their cheating dad. Before getting to the main story, the teen talked about their bond with their dad.

Because of work, the teen and his brothers’ father was rarely home when they were kids. The man worked long hours and often went to other places on business trips. He didn’t spend much time with his family at home.

“Siblings and I were basically raised only by my Mom, and I’m really close with her,” the kid said. The teen didn’t want to talk to the dad because the dad only talked about how bad the kid was doing in school. The person on Reddit always told them to do better in school or things would get tough.

As a child, the youth saw that his father was acting differently, but he didn’t think anything was wrong. When the child turned 16, what the man had been keeping from his family came out.

What did the teen find out?
“I remember a few months ago, he came home super late, and I could smell a little perfume on him,” the Redditor said. Even though the teen didn’t do anything about the strange smell that day, he or she soon figured out what it meant.

A few days later, the dad forgot to put his phone down on the table. He had no idea that when his teenager saw a message on the screen, his family would find out his biggest secret.

“Last night was amazing.” Someone sent the teenager’s dad a text message that said, “Can’t wait to see you again.” The teenager was shocked, but knew what to do.

The teen wanted to talk to their father or tell their brothers about the message, but instead they ran to their mother. The child told her what was on their father’s phone because he thought the woman would talk to him about it, but she wasn’t surprised. Someone on Reddit remembered:

“She got pretty emotional, which I felt bad about.”

As the teenagers watched their mother get angry, they chose not to continue talking. The child thought their mother had told them not to worry about it. She told the child she would take care of everything, but she didn’t know that the child would soon tell on the man.
