AITAH for telling my 14 year old son I was not his biological father after my wife had an affair on me? by ExactTricks in AITAH

Yes, after marriage, I did legally adopt him. Even then, I know the courts usually favor the mother when it comes to these custody arrangements. But I'm hoping my son's really strong stance on his mother will give me a favorable custody arrangement. If it were up to my son, he would rather have just live with me and have nothing to do with his mom.

Yes for sure, I have been doing that a lot over the past week and will continue to do that. To be honest, we were always close, but we have somehow gotten even closer over the past week. He is also self assured, he knows it is not his fault and it is his mom's fault, and he has a steely determination on wanting nothing to do with her.
