I'm no cheerleader for Atty, but I have to agree quitting after one day is p¡ss poor. #sad

As to second-guessing Atty's son's accomplishments: Bear in mind those of a certain age can't resist boasting about their wondrous children/grandchildren. When you're further along in years you'll do the same.

Wondering....was the agro a strategy contrived to knock the other out of the competition?
