Who cares?! 🤣 :
It sounds like Dad did the project and is upset to find out that he got it wrong

Also, it's not a School Science Fair. It's a REGIONAL SCIENCE COMPETITION.

Dont ask an expert if you dont want an experts opinion-

what did the father say to the son? because what his uncle said would not make anyone cry, which means the father said stuff the uncle didn't say

as someone who did science Olympiad all through high school, correctness matters (unless they changed the rules since then)

in science, effort and presentation means nothing if it isnt accurate

if the science is wrong the project is wrong

Mr. s :
I'm thinking when the son tried to understand the methane release and permafrost part he asked his dad and his dad was the one that misunderstood and being too prideful didn't call op so when op said he was wrong instead of apologizing and helping his son the brother decided to paint op as the bad guy

Honestly? Even at 14 I’d rather face the humiliation (perceived, but perceived still feels very real) of going through the changes with a relative than getting that same feedback after entering my work into the competition. BUT, and important to note, if there’s so much effort into this, kiddo might just be overwhelmed (I’ve been there too, and well beyond 14 tbh😅). He’s worked hard on this, he was mentally prepared for it to be over, and the dad just told him (probably) that everything sucked and there was lots left to do.

It’s about the scientific process more than anything. I do feel they should ask the kid if he wants some constructive criticism or is he pleased with what he’s presenting.

Witch of the Glen :
What?? Wouldn't the kid want to learn better?? I think the dad presented it to his son in a bizarre way. OP didn't want the kid to be embarrassed and wanted to help him.

It’s a regional competition though, surely they would care if the info is actually wrong

Yeah, that’s not how science fair projects worked in my high school. If you did something wrong, the project is wrong. It does go towards your grade.

Highschool level Science Fairs are a lot more competitive than you think. And Honestly I have never seen one where the core hypothesis isn't approved by the teacher sponsoring the science team.

In all the science fairs I was ever in you either win or lose, and if it’s incorrect factually, you were going to lose

NTA. For a competition factual informations matter.

Being able to walk through corrections with a student is part of the process of learning. Saying this as a university lecturer

I would be grateful to OP for pointing out the errors because those kind of mistakes are what get you disqualified from receiving even a participation ribbon

PippinCharlie :
And how would this kid have reacted? Had he gotten the same feedback from the judges? In front of all of his peers and presumably other teachers? I’m only halfway through the story so maybe there’s more information but teach your kid to take criticism.

devo :
Maybe learning some critical thinking is more important than the protecting the kid. I mean, in science, having an argumentation bases on facts and consensus should be more important than presentation or efforts. And as a parent I would like my kid to pay attention to details and facts, and not take the credit just because they made a lovely poster. And also, if I'm an expert in something and someone asks me anything about the area I'm expert in, I should hope they will take my insights well. Or else, ask someone who know nothing about this.

Nta. In my school a great part of the grades over projects are about the well functioning of it, because if it looks good and looks well made but isn't, it's not gonna pass to make us experience what is like to make a project for our future work. He wasn't even mean about it, I'd argue that fixing the project would have been a nice bonding moment. The dad definitely didn't deliver it well, everyone makes mistakes, so it would be better for someone professional at the topic to help you out.

years ago early 90s, I did a report (using books, no internet) in which the books were wrong. the teacher corrected it and gave me a do-over.

Thing is science fairs typically have prizes for people that rank highest in being correct in information, well presented, and well made. 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places usually have some decent prizes. 1st place could be a spot in a science summer camp.
