ummm, there is a time and place that ALL children need to mind with their parents. this guy didn't do that. thus, everyone in the fray hating him.
what if she HAD died of a broken heart? how does the son not know that his father isn't dying of one right now? the kid is only trying to protect himself.
i hope his kids stick him in a crappy nursing home and move to vegas. karma can be a bitch that way.
