Dad Takes Son to Disney, Expects Baby Mama’s Daughter to Stay Home

Eight years ago, a man had a son with a woman he was casually seeing. Their relationship has been rocky ever since, and she now has custody of their child. Despite the tension, the dad still sees his son regularly and pays child support. The mom also has a daughter with another man, but the dad doesn’t feel any responsibility towards her. So when he decided to take his son to Disneyland for his girlfriend’s birthday, he didn’t think twice about leaving the little girl behind. But the mom wasn’t happy about this decision, and drama ensued.
