Today, my whack job of a father told my 8-year-old son that his cat deserves a bullet to the head for being so damn stupid. FML
whydadwhy tells us more.
Hey, OP here. Anyways, for those who are saying I should take it as a joke--he was fully serious when he said it. He's not the best human being. He's done this before, and I don't know why he specifically attacks my son's kitten. He's threatened to let the cat outside so it can get hit by a car, has said he hopes it runs away and never comes back, and I even caught him trying to kick and/or chuck it out of a room. He repeated what he said to my husband, but claimed that my son couldn't take a joke and refused to apologize. My son was speechless when he said it and went to his room because he didn't want to be seen crying. He's only 8; he doesn't need to hear that his grandfather wants to kill his cat. My husband did the responsible thing and told my father that he thinks he shouldn't be involved with my son that much anymore.

WTF is wrong with your dad? I'd keep your son away from him until he learns that there are some things you keep to yourself and not say out loud, especially to an 8 year old.

make sure to tell your father that if he does that kind of crap again he won't be allowed near your son

Was he making a joke? Sounds like a rough around the edges kind of joke. I would have laughed.

sounds like a bunch of overly sensitive cry babies. if op's kid can't handle a little joke from his grandfather, then I hate to see what happens to him/her as he/she grows up.

No,no,no. If anyone made a comment like that to my child they would no longer be in my life. I don't care who they are.
