Today, my boss got a promotion and I got laid off. FML
Today, it's my first day as the boss, after waiting months for this promotion. Today is also the day my replacement, who I trained for three months, quit. Now I've got two jobs for the price of one. FML
Today, my supervisor at work is now my father-in-law. My girlfriend told me that. FML
Today, my boss was fired by the board. A few days ago, he dropped several strong hints that he was going to promote me soon. FML
Today, I got promoted. By promoted, I mean, given a much harder job with no training and no extra pay because someone went on maternity leave. They've already hired someone for my old position. FML
Today, it was my first day as a promoted manager. I got fired for being late. FML

Ask if someone else can let him go. Say it's a conflict of interest

This is a conflict of ethics, and as such should be respected.

Apparently you have never worked in the corporate world.

He shouldn't hate you for that. It's not your fault that he's getting fired, you are just the unlucky person who has to fire him. If he hates you for that, he's the one with a problem, not you.

Now that would be an awkward family discussion.

Just because he has to be fired doesn't mean that OP should be the one to do the dirty work.

hopefully he's an understanding individual... otherwise, the holiday get-togethers will be AWKWARD.

where do your loyalties lie? Find out why he needs to be fired and explain to your boss why this is a hard decision.

Why because he is ******* your mom? So what don't fire him because you hate the fact that he's in your life.

No. Because he is the father of the person the original poster is going to marry. OP doesn't want to fire him. The responsibility was given to the OP by someone else.
