• 2019 = accidentally preggie.

      It’s now 2022 … and they have THREE kids?
      This dude sounded irresponsible from the get-go. IF nothing is too stable – one may be an accident, but THREE?!

      The traditional mindset types always say plop another kid to GLUE an unstable or rocky relationship.
      Worse advice ever. Now it is harder for the Woman (especially if she is financially dependent on him), to ever get out, even in an abusive relationship.

      Whether or not there is suport is immaterial. Some single mom clients of mine choose to sit forever on safety nets ( be it husbands or country’s govt).
      Helpful support (debatable in current global situation) in the short run to tide over situations but unhelpful to self. Because it conditions/enables learned-helplessness in some (ie welfare moms parked there forever, with no inclination to do anything to be independent) = > MH issues in some cases. And the children growing up – some end up repeating the cycle.
