No, because it's not my information to share.

Me personally, a lie by omission is still a lie

We know, your post history of this account and your previous ones were all about you and your lack of discretion.

Sounds like your hypothetical son should be on guard around you tbh.

How can it be morally wrong to just shut the fuck up?

Is this about your cousin again? Why does it bother you so much that nobody told you about his success?

Personally, if my son owned a business and became a millionaire, I would feel like I'm bragging about it every time I mentioned it. Although I do enjoy bragging about my son, I wouldn't want a relative telling me how much more successful my cousin was compared to me. I wouldn't want to be that person.

You said you rarely talk to these people, so why would you expect them to go out of their way to tell you any of these things? Have you told all of them about all of your accomplishments?

I think that is your son's decision and it should be respected, even if you disagree with it.

Should it ever become public, your family should also understand that you were respecting your son's decisions.

Sounds like a recipe for familial homicide.

A lie by omission is when you only tell part of something and leave out a relevant piece of information that changes the context of the rest of it.

No saying anything is not that.

Don't spread other people's business around.

Your extended family doesn't have a right to know about anyones' financial situation, therefore not a lie of omission.

I don't have any other family members aside from my mother. I don't have a son either...
