Disown him like how? It’s time our parents should stop these old ways of threatening us.

@kwamekumi890 commented:

I don’t know why this should be a problem. If the son had it a good way, he should just tell his father and he won’t disown him. Unless he himself knows he had it the wrong way. This car is very expensive.
