The truth needs to be told: suing your parents is not the best, irrespective of whatever they must have done to you. All you need to do is take up such critical issues with your father’s relatives or family. They are the ones who can table such problems and resolve them as fast as possible.

Sometimes, parents do frustrate their children, most especially the grown-up ones, to do what they are supposed not to do. Acting that way would show a bad record to your children towards you. This is why we as parents just needed to treat our children so greatly so that they wouldn’t find any way of treating us badly when they grow up.
To sue your parents is just like setting a bad record. People would see you as a tyrant and someone who does not have regard for his parents. Honor is given to those who deserve it, but our parents deserve to be honored if we look at the way they struggled to raise us right from childhood up to this moment. When we listen to the words of our parents, we would not forgive them—not all anyway, but then looking to the past would send a serious good message to our hearts.
My husband is a testimony to this issue. Talking of the way he was treated by his father, he would have found a way to sue him, but then he had to maintain just because of fatherly love. The land his mother had bought, his dad had to sell it out and denied selling it when he was asked. His father's younger wife was the backbone behind the sale of the land. The lies put up by his dad were a cooked story made by the younger wife.
My husband was ready to buy some blocks but was driven out of the land by some people who had claimed to have bought the land. He walked straight to his dad, and there he was able to get out the truth.
That alone is worth being sued, but he kept mute just because of what the world would say when they heard of the story behind it. They would blame my husband for acting so unwisely.
Two days ago, my husband came home telling me about his friend. He said his friend’s dada was tormenting him unjustly. His friend's dad had two wives before this issue started. His mom was still alive and was doing so well, but after his mom’s death, an unwanted character emanated from his dad. He got married to two young women at the same time just because of the way he was acquiring wealth due to the numerous lands he had been selling. After a few months, the money started depreciating. His children were giving him advice that he felt was useless. He decided to sell out one of his houses, leaving the one that was supposed to belong to my husband’s friend and his siblings. Meanwhile, this man had signed an unwanted agreement with the first wife that whenever it was time to sell off the last house, he was going to give out some percentage to them unknowingly to my husband’s friend and his siblings. It was later discovered, but then it was way too late to reverse what had been signed. My husband's friend decided to take up the issue to the court, but he was advised to let go since it involved his dad. They told him that what he was doing was right, but the world would read another meaning to it. He was living in his father’s compound, but he had decided to pack out just because of his father's unwanted words.
Sometimes, we need to let go of our fathers’ properties just because of what it entails, most especially when it becomes a polygamous aspect of life. Anything could happen.
