2024-09-29 14:17:08 +0000 UTCI'm also not entirely sure divorce will do what you want here. The mom often gets a stronger say in keeping the kids, and if she's keeping them out of school half the time, I think it'll turn out really poorly anyway.

2024-09-28 20:50:29 +0000 UTCI think that second one is REALLY tough. I was going about it the way Joseph mentioned partway through, but I think if you make analogies, it opens things up a bit. Would he be the asshole if HE were the one taking the kids of of school? Like, the mom wants them in school but a week prior to the deadline he pulls their admission. Well, I think so, and I don't think it's close. The main difference here is that the action is something we all feel harms the kids. So another analogy: the mom is free-range, and let's the kids stick things in electrical sockets. Would the dad be wrong to "go behind the mom's back" to protect his kids? I think everyone would say no. I think if you extrapolate this, the dad isn't the asshole here, because, while he's going behind his wife's back, he's doing it to help the kids.

2024-09-28 20:48:45 +0000 UTCThe only reason why the second one could be considered an asshole is that he didn't divorce that woman or call the office of children's issues or some shit like that because that is insane. It's also likely his fault. Having children with a 22-yo woman who then becomes a stay at home mom has these risks, he should've noticed the signs earlier and had a real talk to her

2024-09-27 18:41:07 +0000 UTCHeavily disagree with the second one. These are your kids. They clearly seem like they wanted to go to school, and are even enjoing it. The mother is very clearly limiting their growth and obviously isn't going to budge on this and the father clearly gave her time to figure this out. And while yes, divorce probably is the best course, it's not like you snap your fingers and it happens. It's a long and expensive process. If going behind his wife's back was the only way the kids get into school because she is trying to sabotage their future's, then she's gonna have to deal with it.

2024-09-27 18:35:49 +0000 UTCIt's fair for you to disagree and the points you bring up really show how much you care about the well-being of the children. You even touch on how detrimental divorce would be. As such, I believe you're able to understand how spouses going behind each other's back is something that can lead to divorce. And you can hopefully extend your empathy, maybe not to the mom but, to the dad and realize how much this tore him up inside. How much the rift will widen between him and his wife when he can't even rely on his wife. Just as everyone on the podcast said, we all agree that getting the kids a proper education was the right thing to do, but efforts can and should be made to get everyone on board as they're meant to be a family. Finally, based on the dad's post, don't you realize that the mom is in a much better position to do things behind the dad's back with the kids? As such, trying to get the mom to understand the error of her ways is definitely a better, albeit more challenging, approach than just going behind her back on every detrimental decision.

2024-09-27 17:26:35 +0000 UTCI heavily disagree. If it was anything not related to kids I'd agree that going behind her back is a scummy move. When you limit a child's life by inane bullshit with no plan you need to put your feelings on hold. Like imagine if the children were queer and the mom was homophobic, complaining about how the father "went behind her back" by going to a pride event. Like..... suck my dick? Eat my ass? Sorry your children dont love you as much as their father because your insane, but that's a you problem. Additionally, the way the friend group was talked about made it seem like they were going to pill the mom on anti-vax shit which may kill their children. Finally, I don't understand why the councel thinks that going behind someone's back is more undermining to one ability to parent then getting a goddamn divorce would. That shit is not easy or quick or unmessy. There is a reason it's a last resort for most people! Tldr: Dad is based and should lie to his spouse more often

2024-09-27 16:53:19 +0000 UTCI really love Joseph pulling the conversation back in the right direction for the second story. I know sometimes he does things to be devil's advocate or to be contrarian. However, this is one of the times, there are other times too, where he really nails a deeper question that should be addressed. The end shouldn't always justify the means.
