I am from Newfoundland and live in Newfoundland, this is not part of our culture. The thing of it is that yes the men had to go hunt or fish or work in the woods, to support their families and women did stay home to care for children, they made bread and clothes and other things for their family so they could eat and have clothing but this was when my grandmother and grandfather were growing up and starting a family. That being said my grandfather worshiped the ground my grandmother walked on. When he was home he did the cooking and helped with things in the house. It is not a culture thing where this man gets his behavior from it is a I am a man a ass. He should have better respect for you and your son, we as Newfoundlander\'s are known for our kindness and friendless because the majority of us have known struggles that a lot of provinces do not. We all work extremely hard for the things we have and make sacrifices to get them. Please do not allow this ass and his ( I am a man) way of thinking have you believing that we are all like that. I truly do feel for what a happen at the dinner, you deserved better treatment and so did your son. Unfortunately there are people like him out there no matter where they are from. God bless and I hope you find your voice to speak your feelings to your son and his girlfriend because they need to know how poorly you feel about what happened.
You are right. That jerk isn\'t worth wasting your time on, or a thought. I hope you feel better now. Nobody should ever be treated that way. It sounds like your son\'s girl friend sees through her father. Hope so. I\'m glad you were able to hold your tongue while there. There is just no point. He\'s not going to change. Next time, ignore him. Well, you are probably too nice, but I wouldn\'t give him the time of day.
I hope you are feeling better by now.
thankyou
