Guy Blames His Ex For Not Taking Care Of Their Child, Gets Destroyed With Words
Parenting can definitely be a challenge, but some people find it more difficult than the other, especially when the child is still just a mere baby. From changing diapers to many sleepless nights, the trials and tribulations of being a parent can truly take a toll on any person. And that becomes even harder when you’re a single parent. Tired of raising his 18-month-old son, one single dad decided to share his troubles with Reddit, seeking legal advice on making the mother of his son take care of the child. He explained the situation, focusing on his ex-girlfriend and the choices they both made, passing judgment and calling the woman a “deadbeat mom”. Although he asked for legal advice, the man got more than he bargained for. Scroll down below to read the full story and don’t forget to tell us what you think! (Facebook cover image: julie corsi)

I'm a bloke, so saying this hopefully demonstrates I'm not a misogynistic sod. But isn't this the dire situation men have been leaving women in for centuries, as they walk away and quite literally leave her holding the baby, preferring to absolve themselves of any responsibility? Sounds like she had the brains to think this one through... while he did not. My only sympathy lies with the kid.
And she pays 125% of court ordered child support, much more than she needs to. There are many absent fathers doing their best to avoid paying any child support to single mothers, sometimes even despite court orders. Honestly, if the roles were reversed, I'm not sure the court would have ordered him to pay any child support at all or at least not as much because they weren't even engaged and she (if the roles were reversed he) doesn't have visitation or any other rights concerning the child. He seems very immature; he needs to learn he can't force her (or anyone) to care and change her life according to his wishes. He should be happy she didn't sue him for coerced birth, manipulation and harassment and that she agreed to pay any child support at all and very grateful she gave him the child he allegedly so much wanted and didn't get an abortion despite his wishes or give it up to someone else for adoption.
Load More Replies...Have you ever heard a man say he has to "babysit" his own kids? I have. Many, many times. I've NEVER heard a woman say it. This is the mentality we're dealing with.
Yes! Soooo many times and it makes me furious every time

You are directly responsible for bringing that child to life. If you don't want to be a daddy do not ejaculate in women.
She didn't want the child. He wanted it. She was nice enough to give it to him AND pay for it more than she had to. Now he has it. Welcome to the beautiful world of single parenting ! Deal with it. Period.
oopsie, sounds like Ben DOVER (real classy) has been in a similar situation and he's bitter. :(
Load More Replies...I hate how some men act like because they're dating someone, they get to have control over their bodies. "She wanted to have an abortion but I didn't..." Well that sucks for you, mate. Bodily autonomy is a thing. Sadly, sexist a******s exist.
Fetuses are not babies. Until a certain point when their brain develops enough to *almost* feel pain, they are not technically alive/they are brain dead. Even if the fetus is fully developed, it still has no right over the pregnant person. Using the pregnant person's body for nutrients is a matter of whether the person wants it to be there. Once they withdraw consent for the fetus to be in their body, they have the right to remove it. For example, if your sister is dying and the only person who can give her a blood transfusion is you, you still have the right to say no. It's ridiculous; even after you're dead people can't use your organs without consent when you were alive, even if the organs would save someone. Anti-choice people are saying that a pregnant person deserves less rights than a dead body.
Load More Replies...Yes... It's breaking my heart to see how awful those humans are. These kind of situation are why I'm not against abortions... Sometimes being alive is not worth it, expecially when your parents don't want you - that thing scars deep and the wound stays there forever
Load More Replies...To me this sounds like one of those people who fall in love with the idea of something without thinking about the realities. Like a kid who wants a puppy but then gets to find out that raising and training a living thing is actual work and just attempts to foist the responsibilities of other people all while trying to make sure they can still get all of the benefits of the situation.
I think it's more likely he wanted to tie her down to him with the child. It's a common abuse tactic, as most women would not give up their children.
Load More Replies...I had exactly the same thought. How many women are in this "single parent " situation? At least he can count with her money and with help of his family and he can still work. Many women can't do that and don't have that. It's supposed we fill sorry because he is a men , but if would be a woman telling this story everything would be so different. He is crying hungry with his belly full.
I love that expression. "He is crying hungry with his belly full." I've never heard that one before, but, believe me, I will be using it. :)
Load More Replies...YOU CHOSE to bully her into having a child she didn't want. She did NOT have to do that. YOU said you'd raise the child YOU CHOSE to keep. YOU had no legal standing to stop her getting an abortion, and YOU had no legal standing to stop her giving up YOUR son for adoption. ...///... SHE is paying support and YOU made that deal. Suck it up, sunshine. This is YOUR SON. You need your a*s kicked around the block, you sick little puppy.
Yes,he is a idiot, let's not offend puppy / puppies. 😉

That is such a good point. The thought never even crossed my mind. That poor kid!!
