It takes two to Tango, but it also takes two to make and care for a baby.
People can argue left and right over how to parent their kids, but no matter which way you slice it, this two-person job works best when each parent pulls their weight. Surely, in any healthy relationship, the mom AND the dad feel the call to action when it comes to caring for a newborn baby, but in the case of the family in our next story, dear ol' Dad seems to think that he's not financially responsible for the lil rascal.
Recently, the mother of a 1-year-old baby has posted online lamenting over a dispute she's tackling regarding her husband. The woman comes from a wealthy family, where her own father owns and manages a rather large estate of assets, but she's made her own way in life, saving pennies, working her way up, and remaining financially responsible on her own. This financial independence is what blinded her to the actions of the shameless leech that she decided to marry.
Before they had a child, things were peachy in the family. Her husband was slated to take over the family business, they bought a house together (albeit, due to her massive downpayment), and their lives seemed like they were ready to take on the fiscal and emotional challenges of raising a little one. Well, after her wealthy father-in-law gifted $4,000 to help cover medical bills and newborn expenses, the new dad and selfishly rash husband decided to buy himself a little treat with the funds.
