Man's father = My father's son. My father's son = me. That man's father = me. I am the father of my son.
When looking in a mirror, it is "YOU".
The person in question is your son. Think about it this way: Who is "your father's son"? It's you, because you have no brothers or sisters. So, you just replace "your father's son" with "you", and the riddle now reads: "...that man's father is you." Simple.
i believe he is talking about himself I was always told he was your son, tell me if I am wrong. *Actually he's talking about his own son. he in real terms could be talking about both him self or his son. this mans father if pointing to himself at the time would mean his own father and without brothers and sisters the link would go back to himself beeing the son. Or if he had a son the he could be directing to his son saying this mans father meaning himself
He is your cousin
Either your son or your nephew is the man.Your father's son is either you or your brother (including half-brother).If your father's son is you, then the original man is your son, (you are his father).If your father's son is your brother, then the original man is your nephew, (your brother is his father).Obviously if you have no brothers, than it must be your son.
his brother
When looking in a mirror, it is "YOU".
My son. "My fathers son" is myself, if I don't have brothers and sisters.Therefore, "A certain man's father is my father's son" simplifies to "A certain man's father is myself".
you/me
The man is looking at his son. ...''my fathers son'' is me. ...''this mans father'' is me. so hes looking at his son!
his son
That means that the man in the photo is his son. "My father's son" is himself (since he has no brothers and sisters); since he is the father of "that man", it follows that "that man" is his son.
