Man Screams At Wife After She Realizes His Secret Led To Their Kid’s Sociopathic Actions

It might just be me, but the way OP's post is written seems really unsettling

"She is an unfit parent" gave me shivers.

Well, that was terrifying.

This kid needs serious help. It's chilling how much he has in common with a very young Ted Bundy. The dad doesn't even realize he never stopped living a fraudulent life. It's all water under the bridge for him. For her... She just found out she's married to a complete stranger and because of his deception her child hasn't gotten the help he so desperately needs. I pray she's able to get herself and her son away from him safely.

This guy is mentally unstable and was hiding it for years. His wife found out about his past, which clearly he hid from her, although he denies hiding these horrific details from his and his family's past, and his sociopathic tendencies have resurfaced and he is a downward spiral. 1 million percent YTA.

The poll question here messed by not including the option "She needs to run, get police protection, and check the child into a good counseling children's clinic before it's too late."

Ugh, imagine getting stuck with a sociopath for a child because your partner was too selfish to bring up their family medical history? What a nightmare that would be.

This is so disturbing. He intentionally didn't tell her anything - that's a sociopathic trait right there. This guy should never have procreated; they all sound like monsters. Hope the woman runs for the hills and takes the kid. Kid needs a butt load of therapy to get some semblance of normality. God the guy sounds like he's getting ready to imprison his wife the way he talks. Fyi, sociopathic natures are a difference in brain chemistry - there's no 'ive changed' moments, only managing behaviours. This guy is the worst for keeping her in the dark and creating a new little monster without her knowing.

Poor woman.

Omg... The part where he asks for help from others whose wives have fled similarly? Or what patterns to look for?... Please everyone NEVER answer that question. There's absolutely no doubt in my mind that he's going to look for them, "hunt them down" and try and stop her... She needs to go and go now. I really hope that she has with her son. I also hope noone actually helped him with how to gain access, find them if they have left... The son needs protection and professional help. I really hope that the son gets the helps he deserves and needs...

This is pretty chilling... there's no recognition that he's decieved her about his serious family history of mental illness and his criminal history, and that she is absolutely right to feel deceived and betrayed. No recognition that his son potentially has major psychiatric problems requiring urgent intervention. No recognition of the fact that he shows strong and worrying evidence of sociopathy himself. It's all "how can I make her like me again, should I buy her stuff? How do I tell if she's going to try to leave, so I can kidnap our kid first?" Poor woman. She must be going through hell.

Holysh!holysh!holysh!t I usually enjoy doing a deep dive on reddit for posts here that are interesting but I feel like I just went through the car wash naked, sans car. That dude is scary.

Absolutely terrifying.

This is some serious ish to unpack. The kid grabbed a knife and threatened to harm the mom? If she's planning to leave he wants to beat her to it?? All of a sudden she's unfit? I fear for her. Omg

Wtf did I just read?!?!?! If this is true...oh God I can feel the tension in the question is posing. - How do I spot the signs? How can I get back to be a happy family? - and what was that weird list of things she wants to do????? If this is real, oh boy, that's a look into a sociopath head and it's showing us how it really shows how twisted the line of thoughts is. He never asked things about how to EMOTIONALLY connect with is wife. He asked only about how to control her behaviour and what patter (of behaviour) he should apply to go back to his weird idea of an happy family. Your son is menacing your wife with a knife, are you blind???? And the fact that he wrote twice that she's not a well fitted parent without ever explaining why. F*****g control freak. This was seriously disturbing.

This gene pool needed a lifeguard and he is one step towards being Ted Bundy.

He wants control of their son regardless of what is best for him. The way he claims that he can't allow her to leave with the kid is extremely concerning.

Omg this guy is sick. Imagine being pissed off at his wife for feeling betrayed for both her and her son. What an extreme sence of entitlement. You never wanted to deal with the issue you just wanted the euphoria blurting out the truth gave you. What a complete loser you are. And then to accuse her of being unfit to raise your child and talk about controlling the situation? Man if I were her I'd run from you so fast. And by the way, she wouldn't be abducting HER child. There isn't a court anywhere that wouldn't see her as having justification for leaving you with him. All she'd have to do is show them this post. You're sick and you need help.

Either a fake post, or OP is sociopath (probably other mental health conditions as well) who cannot acknowledge that his family's mental health history is the cause of this.

These are exactly how the family murders play out. Child is killed so wife can't take him, Wife is killed because she's not 'normal.' His words, behaviour, attitude Scream life threatening danger to her. There's no chance she would have had children with Such a huge family history of extreme mental illness without seeking medical advice at the very least. All of his behaviour, including assumed identity are scary. Of course she's plotting to get out. But I hope she does not plot too long, this is get out before extreme danger and threat to life occur. He sounds like a pressure cooker ready to explode. Womens refuges would be a good idea to talk to as they're experts in the highly dangerous, even if, or Especially if she has family she can go to. Thet need expert advice to protect her. That poor poor woman 😔

As I soon as I read that you didn't tell your WIFE about your CRIMINAL PAST! Not only are you the biggest a*****e, but you're also manipulative, abusive, and a con man.

I wonder if his wife is still alive.

Please readers, tell me how I can coercively control my wife in this FDV relationship... I can keep her child from her obviously, and gaslight her about her being an unfit parent, but that sounds like hard work and if there's an easier way I'll try that first.

This is uncannily like my ex, I feel for her and for that poor child.

Wow, those updates. How long ago was this posted? Has anyone seen or heard from this woman to know that she's okay?

This was terrifying to read...he doesn't see the big issue of his 'lie by omission' and wants to know how to tell when his wife is about to jilt so that he can pre-empt her and use the son as leverage?! This must feel like being in a horror/psychological movie. I hope to God she makes it out alive.

If I guy had told me ANY of that, I would have never married him, let alone had his child. And I would try to get out of that situation as quickly as possible

Does she realize that some sociopaths come from entirely "normal" families? At same time, his writing style does lead to questions.

I don't know what y'all r yappin about, he clearly just didn't want to have to make his wife think that he was untrustworthy, and he didn't want to tell her just in case she starts to doubt him but if she can't accept something that was not OP's fault, then that woman needs to see where he is coming from. also JayWantsACat, I agree with you on that one to, he still has a bit of work to do on the sociopath thing.

Let your wife leave. She doesn't want to take responsibility for your child, and she's looking for anyone to blame instead of how to move forward. She's not concerned about your child, she's not concerned about her spouse, she's displaying sociopathic tendencies and cutting her losses when people are no longer useful to her. It doesn't matter where this comes from, time to focus on your kid. Even if he is a sociopath (and you can't diagnose that until early twenties) he can have a normal life, he's not destined to be a serial kill3r. Most sociopaths are successful and often well liked. Surgeons, pilots, high ranking military, tech bros etc. Definitely consult behaviour specialists but don't panic. Get a few opinion, talk to your kid and see what helps.
