My father and I have had a strained relationship for a long time. My parents divorced when I was 8 years old, and ever since then he has gone off the rails. Before the divorce, he was my first best friend. He was the one who stayed at home when I grew up and we did everything together. He moved to a remote town in CO when I was in highschool and have only seen him 2x since then (I’m 25 now). Fast forward to now, I received a text out of the blue that my mom is still pursuing child support from him. My dad doesn’t make much money (he chooses to work part time if that). He has never paid and I have no idea what he owes (assuming quite a bit). He essentially pleaded with me to talk to my mother and call it off. I told him I refuse to be in the middle of whatever their issues are, and he threatened to cut me off forever. AITA for not helping him? I have receipts.
