When "Father" went to confront "Mother"'s boss, he asked him several questions concerning how the boss felt about "Mother" which all caused "Father" to get upset. "Father" explained that he plans on suing the boss and company for what occured; however, the boss explained that nothing occured and that "Father" would lose in court. "Father"'s anger rose and as the boss kept prodding "Father", "Father" exploded and assaulted the boss. Currenly, "Father" is in jail for the assault, and no progress has been made to sue the boss. Since the assault, "Mother" has quit working there and is now attempting to secure a permanent job somewhere.
Recently, "Son" has graduated from Law School and is attempting to decide whether he should:
become a prosecutor and sue "Mother"'s ex-boss
OR
become a detective
"Son" understands that "Mother" deserves justice and if he could he could get the ex-boss be found to be guilty, it could dramatically reduced "Father"'s sentence. However, "Son" believes that becoming a detective is closer to his dream of becoming a police officer and allow him to help others more than he would if did become a police officer.
