In this story, a young tech-working couple, married for 1.5 years, faced a challenge when the wife, 27 years old, had to relocate to a different city for a six-month work project. Her husband, 28, couldn’t move with her due to his office commitments, so they agreed to visit each other every other week, ensuring that she could also spend time with her parents at least once a month. This arrangement worked well for two months, but a significant twist occurred when the wife discovered she was pregnant when it was her turn to visit her husband. He was delighted by the news and expressed a desire to work remotely to be with her during the rest of her temporary relocation.
However, when they informed his parents about this plan, things took an unexpected turn. His mother raised concerns about him leaving the city, fearing potential emergencies, and criticized the wife for “taking their son away. Now OP wants to know if she’s an A-hole for not moving home after finding out that she was pregnant.
