Is He Really the Bad Guy? 🧐
Our dad-to-be is at his wit's end with his girlfriend's constant hospital trips and feels she's taking advantage of him. After a heated argument, she gives him the cold shoulder and withholds information about their unborn child. He's apologized, but she's still mad. Is he really in the wrong, or is his frustration justified? Let's see what the internet has to say about this situation... 🍿

"YTA. She should leave you. She is due to give birth NEXT MONTH. If something goes wrong it could go very wrong, very fast. You might have left your co-workers shorthanded. She could have died of eclampsia or been in premature labor. You're not the same." 😡

"YTA. Take her to the hospital, and also encourage her to seek mental health care and join support groups. If she is all alone and scared she needs more support than just you. It is 100% better to be safe than sorry in these situations, and the hospital staff are 100% used to seeing people come in frequently during a pregnancy to make sure everything is okay." 💪
