So, my 4 yo son's biological father came by to visit today and deccided to take it up with my wife that "his" son should not be calling me dad.
Here's the background: I have been around since he was 4 mo and am now married to his mother. His biological father left shortly after conception and even went about denying that this was his son. He decided in Decemeber to file for visitation (mind you "his" son was 3-and-half yo) and saw him for the first time in over a year shortly after Christmas. He was granted supervised visitation everyother weekend from Friday evening to Sunday evening. He usually only has time for about 4-5 hours everyother weekend to see/spend time with him. My son still refers to him as a friend and calls him by his name (this is how his bio father introduced himself to begin with.)
Now after coming around for 7 months, for a few hours everyother weekend, he says that his son shouldn't be calling my dad and that if we don't correct him he will correct him on the spot. How would you all handle this situation? Thanks for the input!
