Leon Barretto reacted to the message posted by his dad actor Dennis Padilla regarding the non-greeting of his siblings Julia, Claudia including himself during Father’s Day.
Leon on Instagram posted a lengthy message most of which are questions for his daddy Dennis.
“Sorry if I wasn’t able to greet you a ‘Happy Father’s Day!’ It’s always been an awkward day for us cause we never seem to know where we stand with you every year. I’ve always envied people who never even have to think twice about greeting their dads a ‘Happy Father’s Day.” Leon started.
“For the past 10 years, we have been trying so hard to slowly rebuild the bridge you continuously burn every time you talk about our private matters in your press cons, interviews, and social media,” he said.
Papa, why does it seem like you enjoy hurting your kids in public? Why do you keep posting cryptic posts about us and allow people to bash us on your own page? Did you think it does not pain all of us to not feel protected by their own father?” Leon asked.
It’s not that we don’t want to talk to you, but the few times that we do to resolve the issues, you communicate by shouting, cursing, and using hurtful words that traumatize us.” added Leon.
“Is public sympathy really more important to you than your own children? Your words have the power to destroy your children, papa,” Leon said.
“It’s exhausting, papa. As the only man in the family, this is me stepping up to protect my sisters.” added Leon.
“I need you to know that I want nothing else but to move forward in the safest and healthiest manner possible. I want peace, papa. Can you please stop resorting to public shaming when things don’t go your way?” requested Leon.
“I long for the day when I can greet you a ‘Happy Father’s Day’ and know that it comes from a place of gratitude and healing,” Leon ended.
