Redditor Hides Her Boyfriend’s Dog To Prove A Point, Boyfriend Gets Furious

The world brings with it many dangers for young children, including many accidents and risks to their wellbeing and overall health. Our OP from today’s Reddit AITA story, who has a three-year-old son with her boyfriend Hank, began noticing that Hank was more devoted to his dog Ladybird which he adopted before OP and him met, and seemingly cared more for the canine than their child. Despite this, Hank has been helpful and supportive in their household chores and is typically an okay partner for OP. One day, when OP asked Hank to watch their son, Hank did something extremely irresponsible… and OP had to teach him a lesson by doing the same thing to him. Keep on reading to see what happened:

#1) Did OP mess up? Find out!

#2) OP and her boyfriend have a son together, as well as a dog. OP feels that sometimes he treats their dog better than their son.

#3) Whenever OP’s boyfriend, Hank, comes home from work he goes straight to their dog and doesn’t check in with their son. One day OP told Hank to watch their son.

#4) When OP came home, she couldn’t find their son and Hank tried to play off the seriousness of the situation. A while late, OP’s neighbor dropped their son off as he had gone to their house.

#5) OP was angry at Hank for not watching their son but Hank told her to “calm down”. OP waited a few days and then gave their dog to the same neighbor.

#6) Hank freaked out when he couldn’t find their dog. OP mentioned that this is how she felt when she couldn’t find their son.

#7) Hank said it didn’t compare, so OP packed her bags and stayed at the hotel with their son for a while. She’s confused on whether she’s in the wrong.

#8) OP gives us an update, saying that they’ve broken up and the neighbor was asked to be a witness of court hearings for custody of their son.

#9) OP thanks everyone who responded to her post and promises to check her messages soon.

A father’s duty is to safeguard and take care of his child and it should outweigh everything else, especially in emergency situations. Nobody should ever have to urge their partner to prioritize their son over a pet. How can Hank comprehend the dangers of unsupervised pets roaming the streets, but not the potential problems that can arise for children who have only recently begun to speak? With this being the last straw, people are truly wondering what other mistakes Hank may have committed during the relationship and how much neglect their son has suffered at his hands.

#15) Agreed, the dog situation and the baby situation DO NOT compare no matter how much you love your pets. The baby situation is far more serious.
