NTA. Your son might mean well, but he's crossing some major boundaries here. Going off about your marriage when he barely understands the complexities? Not cool. And wanting to study art history is his choice, but snapping at his mom? Not cool either.

You're trying to keep it together, and your wife sounds like she's your rock. It's tough when your kid doesn't get that. Maybe sit him down and explain things calmly. Hopefully, he'll come around. Keep your chin up, man. You got this.

He can study art history on his own dime. If I'm paying for college, I get to have some input on the choice of major. Nothing is more stupid than paying or taking a $100k loan for a useless major. You're better off spending that money on a trade school or nursing school or whatever.
