I’m sorry but Will is a wimp, his kids saw their mother disrespect Will all these years which led to them not respecting him once they got older.
I honestly don't think it was that at all. Tbh I think Will has let this wimpy, cuckold narrative go on for so long because it's kept the scrutiny away from him (I mean we've all heard the rumors...). The older I get the more I'm starting to suspect that Will might just be difficult as fukk to deal with as a husband OR father.
Even from the shyt he says out his own mouth I get the impression Will 'raised' his kids in the old school upper-class WASP style of being
aloof and hands off, with the belief that providing a comfortable lifestyle and some business or social opportunities here and there was the exact same as actual "parenting".
Jaden literally dipped out once he got his first real taste of failure which is pretty telling. It's like Will NEVER taught him any proper life skills or coping mechanisms. You know, normal stuff that any GOOD and
present father would.
