Most of the time, parents fight to get more time with their kids, to be involved in their lives. The technical rules make it longer to come to a custody agreement.
But this Redditor told her story wherein her ex-husband wanted nothing to do with their kids. He didn’t want to participate in parenting their two kids, thinking that it wasn’t for him.
OP grew up knowing the pain that comes with having a parent who is not too keen on their kid, so she let her ex-husband be. It would’ve been a clean break for both of them until OP’s mother-in-law wanted to meet with her.
It was a "he said, she said" situation that turned to the ex-husband being disowned by MIL and OP being blamed for it. And it had OP confused if she really was the bad guy in the situation.
Redditors who commented shared different insights from the facts that OP provided and pointed out how her ex-husband signed off his rights or things in the divorce agreement. There were also excellent points about his pettiness about the actions of the MIL.
Here’s how OP’s story went
OP is going through a divorce agreement from her ex-husband and around the end of the process, her ex disclosed that he wanted to cut ties with their kids.
A few weeks later, she met with her MIL who basically started to beg OP to let her son see the kids and at the same time accuse her because of how...
torn up OP’s ex-husband is about the situation. She decided to call him in front of MIL.
The true feelings of OP’s ex-husband is revealed and...
the MIL told her she would be in touch.
The ex-husband went through being lowkey disowned by MIL and his other family members. He blamed it all on OP and surprisingly, one of OP’s friends also agrees.
OP provided two updates and edits to the post.
End of story
It was a circle that came to bite OP's ex back on the butt
MIL might be a good support system for OP and her kids
Financially speaking, it would be a great help for OP if the ex wouldn't provide child support
OP's ex-husband might be more upset of being cut off than being seen as a bad father
The kids might be more taken care of than the ex
The freebies that he wouldn't share with his kids
OP had every right to show that he was lying
Instead of having other people put all the blame on her
People brought up that she could've just shown a divorce agreement
But it wouldn't prove the stand of her ex-husband about his kids
The friend in question seems to not see what's wrong about OP's ex-husband and chose to defend him
The kids would need Denise and OP to be their support system and hopefully she sticks around
The ex-husband was mad at getting caught but people think he definitely deserve it.
Sometimes adults make decisions that don't make sense. It's part of being human but those decisions come with consequences.
As an adult, you are held accountable when things go wrong. Unexpected as it may be for OP's ex-husband to be caught in his lie, it looks like he deserves it instead of OP's reputation being tainted.
