Now just hear me out. I feel as though this event adds complexity and humanity to his character. Almost all humans are capable of change. It makes sense that the recent events caused him to rethink how he was going about things and apologize for his actions. He wasn’t trying to guilt trip him by telling him their own experience with being less influential people, he was trying to share his experience and why he chose what he chose so that his son could keep that detail in mind and make an informed decision. His father is changing and growing, and the world isn’t black and white. Yes he committed wrongs but he’s working on making up for it and changing. Experiencing an entire shift in how you once functioned and thought is difficult and takes time and patience from those around you. And I like how the author implemented this to make him a more in depth and human character.
