I reconnected with my dad after he got out of prison for a felony and introduced him to my kids even though my wife and family argued against it.
What made you try to reconnect with your dad?
He was living in my neighborhood and he looked like he had changed for the better. I want to give him a second chance.
It's good to reconnect with your family. It's good to give your dad a second chance since he might be rehabilitated now.
My dad is helping me in my business and he even has a job now. My wife is mad but it's none of her business.
While I understand her concerns over your father's past, it's unfair for her to ignore the effort he's apparently made to rehabilitate himself. You might want to consider family therapy for the both of you.
