Pregnant Woman Is Painting Graffiti All Over This Australian Town, Trying To Reach The Father

ADVERTISEMENT

The 21st century could easily be dubbed as the age of technology, don’t you agree? We are all attached to our phones 24/7, spending most of our free time scrolling through social media. Instead, we should be going outside and living some of that sweet life we see Instagramers filling our feed with. Therefore, it’s automatically assumed we are all reachable at all times, and one can get really frustrated after losing contact with someone. But sometimes, giving up communication just isn’t possible, and one has to find another solution. As it turns out, there are no boundaries for the human imagination, and there are definitely some extra miles to be gone while seeking attention. Today’s story features quite an interesting way of reaching out to someone. Scroll down to find out more!

These little notes started to appear all over a Melbourne suburb a while ago

A short graffiti tag spray-painted with purple dye saying, “Chris, you need to talk to me before the baby is born or don’t bother after!” was found all over the Melbourn suburb called Frankston. As more and more of these graffiti drawings popped up, people started sharing photos of them on various social media as well as “Snap Send Solve” – an app for resolving maintenance issues.

It turned out these were actually made by a 36-year-old woman

It is said that the single mom already had her baby at 30 weeks, but whether her baby’s daddy has called still remains a mystery. The people who shared the graffiti wording photos are not sure if the missing dad appeared and only posted the pictures because of being frustrated with such careless vandalism.

Who has been charged in relation to this graffiti series

That are now removed after being reported via a graffiti-spotting app by lawful citizens

Even though it sparked lots of interest amongst people, the messages were soon removed and the news spread of a heavily pregnant 36-year-old woman arrested and charged with criminal damage, wilful damage, graffiti and committing an indictable offense while on bail.

The Internet had various responses to the situation

Because he made the choice not to use a condom or bother pulling out. And then does not want to deal with any consequences of sex or responsibilities.

Yeah, I'm not sure if there really is a Chris or not but we had something like that over here in London, people were spraying "Nat has herpes" in really strange places, there was no Natalie it was just a fad.

I don't feel pity for Chris, I bet he's a spineless coward not taking any responsibility for the situation and now ghosting her and the kid.

considering the woman is resorting to vandalism to communicate, it's clear she is not operating with a full deck, so perhaps it's possible he is avoiding talking to her, not to shirk his parental responsibilities, but to avoid a batshit crazy ex.

If you don't have a way to contact the father of your child, I would say your problem isn't going to be solved by defacing public and private property.

This is why you use protection when you have sex. This woman is obviously not mature enough to handle motherhood since she is acting like a teenager vandalizing her whole town.

That woman has serious mental issues and should be evaluated.... Acting like a demented fool is no way to get the baby's presumed father to come to you.... She needs help ... Don't want to sound mean but she shouldn't be raising a child if she is that unstable.

And some of you may still actually think it shouldn't be a woman's right to choose!

Doesn't matter how horny you are, but NEVER ever stick your p****r without a condom into bipolar or borderline crazy!

All I can think of is A) Chris dodged a bullet because this woman is clearly unhinged B) With all the spray painting she's doing, I wonder how messed up that baby is going to be after mom's breathed in all those toxic fumes during pregnancy C) I hope the liquor bottles in the one picture weren't hers or that child's got a whole mess of other medical issues coming his/her way..

Both this woman and Chris need to pay for the graffiti! She's damaging other people's property, and Chris needs to grow himself some balls and take his responsibility!

I suspect the "or Don't bother after" part doesn't include when she goes after him for support.

If she has to go to that much effort he's a loser & better off not in their life.

I don't know who is more in the wrong here the woman, Cris or both equally (and don't really care either); I feel sorry for the kid.

We do not know anything about the story behind this, besides the fact that one will have to factor in the very real possibilities of rape, incest, mental illness, and/or abject poverty (maybe even all) for a pregnant woman to resort to beseeching the father of her unborn child to contact her in this manner. All I can say is that I hope the child will grow up in a caring, safe home. Free, legal abortion does not seem to be a thing in Australia yet.

@Zombiegirl, no woman can get pregnant without a man. Plus that you have to take into consideration that in all too many countries it is not an option for a woman to have an abortion legally.

She's the one who is burdened with pregnancy and motherhood she's the more responsible one she should've had him strap up. Dummy.
