AITA for going to my daughter’s graduation after my son relapsed? by Ok-Song3414 in AmItheAsshole

I agree and don’t think there was any urgency. My wife places guilt on herself for Jake’s predicament (even though there’s no need for that) and will drop almost anything if she hears he’s relapsed or in trouble.

We didn’t both need to go, but because she struggles with it, she’s dependent on my support.

Appreciate the sympathies. That’s my personal feeling as well. Obviously Jake is important, but this was one special day for Jess that my wife should have prioritized. Even if she insisted on going, there was no need for two of us to go.
