Dad needs to be held accountable

Mommy time

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen. When mixing families, things can get more complicated than one would think. Two parents and two sets of children all under one roof. It’s a miracle at all that they can function together. This brings us to the Reddit story. In this piece, there’s a lot going on. The mother has two children, a son and daughter. Their biological father has never been in either of their lives, until recently, when the son attempts to contact him on Facebook. They almost make plan…

Round of applause for dads

After a couple decides to tie the knot and gets married, the next step is usually kids. But how do couples know they are ready to have children? It seems like such a scary decision, and it's so life-changing, that you have to be 100% sure you are ready for it, but is anyone ever 100% sure about anything? My husband and I have been married for almost 4 years, and only now we are starting to feel slightly ready to discuss kids, which means we are having deep conversations about our plans for the…

This story, above all the drama, raises a tough dilemma that we want to pose for you all. The scenario is as follows – Husband finds out that the child he has been raising with his wife is not biologically his, despite her insisting that he is the father. Do you think he would have preferred to know that his wife cheated on him, or that their child was actually switched at birth in the hospital, and their ‘real’ kid is somewhere out in the world? Personally, I don't know which of these options…

Welcome back people of the internet. We all know the infamous phrase ‘dad joke.’ It’s collected into this specific group because you know it when you hear it. It’s indistinct, immature, and typical cadence of awkwardness is something no one can deny (except fathers perhaps). Besides dad jokes, have you ever heard of dad lore? Dads don’t only tell unfunny jokes constantly, they have actually interesting stories from their pasts. Why all these ridiculous jokes to cashiers, servers, and people at…

Hey there internet people. Entanglements with family get complicated before they get better sometimes. In our day and age of everything being canceled, unfortunately this applies to family members as well. It’s a new cultural norm to omit family members from our lives for a multitude of reasons. It’s not just that someone was a terrible parent, sometimes it’s so far as just something they said, or something they did. People are becoming less magnanimous by the hour, and it’s shown in everyday l…

Hey there internet ladies and gentlemen. When entering a relationship with someone, there’s a lot of trial and error to find out how compatible you two are. There’s a whole nature of the relationship that could be extremely incompatible, but does not reveal itself until too late into the game. The important thing is to find out the truth before things get too deep. If a normal, traditional beginning of a relationship is difficult to navigate, adding children becomes downright tiresome. Things c…

Being a father is not like being a mother, scroll through the memes to better understand

Welcome back internet ladies and gentlemen. Relationships can seem as complicated as flying to the moon, or performing open heart surgery. But why is that? It’s just two people working things out together, and somehow it drives us to stressful and unhinged places we never thought we would be. Humans are such emotional creatures…aren’t we? Always swaying this way and that; never fully sure of our decisions and in a constant state of emotional purgatory. This particular Reddit thread follows a co…

Welcome back internet enthusiasts. Mother’s Day has come and went, but with it still brings interesting stories of people’s interpersonal nitty gritty relationships. Take the countless stories of the deadbeat husband not getting his wife the basic gift she asked for, or the one who refused to massage her feet or do something romantic. This is a little different angle. For this Reddit thread, the original poster, (OP) finds that his wife’s ex has been sending her flowers every Mother’s Day since…

There are quite a few unspoken rules when it comes to speeches at weddings. They're unspoken because one would think that they are common sense, but alas, today's thread is testimony to the fact that these rules may need to be engraved on some stone slabs from a holy mountain so that some people will finally get it. First thing's first, you have to make sure that you're supposed to be giving a speech before you make one. That is to say, make sure that it's not actually just supposed to be a rea…

The reality of this weird world is that kids these days have about a 50/50 chance for their parents to stay together and not get a divorce (46% divorce rate in America alone). That means many kids have to deal with a possibly inevitable rift between their parents, which is quite a challenging experience, to say the least. It is incredibly hard to be a kid of divorce and not blame yourselves for the rift between your parents. The daughter in this Reddit story, surely felt like she had a hand wit…

It's amazing, or rather shocking, how far people are willing to go to avoid facing the consequences of their actions. Lies and deception all just so they won't have to admit to the mistakes they made. All that until, inevitably, the truth comes out, and all the relationships they build on top of those lies face destruction. The father in this Reddit story is now facing the destruction of the relationship he has with his son because he tried to hide the truth about his birth. The father was marr…
