'Selfish' dad blasted for forcing son to spend time with dog he doesn't like

Family pets are a great way for young children to learn how to be responsible and have compassion. However, some kids simply don't like animals and may feel scared and nervous in their presence. One father is being blasted online for forcing his son to spend time with a dog he never wanted.

The dad has left Reddit users outraged after sharing his forceful attempts to make his young son and new family pet get on. He has warned the 11-year-old boy that he won't be allowed to go to the "comic book store" if he doesn't learn to love the dog. Now, his wife and children are upset with him, but he's still refusing to step down.
