1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:01,680 Speaker 1: Am I the A hole for wanting to break up 2 00:00:01,680 --> 00:00:04,920 Speaker 1: with my husband after he called our autistic son a 3 00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:07,760 Speaker 1: burden and said he wants to give him up for adoption. 4 00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:11,959 Speaker 1: He just wanted a girl in thirty female. I've been 5 00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,800 Speaker 1: married to my husband, thirty two male for five years. 6 00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:17,680 Speaker 1: We've had our share of problems, like any couple, but 7 00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:20,520 Speaker 1: this one's really shaken me to my core, cut me 8 00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:23,480 Speaker 1: to my quick. We have a son, five male, who 9 00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:26,439 Speaker 1: is diagnosed with autism about two years ago. Of course, 10 00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 1: it hasn't been easy. I see you in the chat 11 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 1: of the comments. You see what's coming. 12 00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 2: But I love it with all my heart. 13 00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:37,040 Speaker 1: He's sweet and despite the challenges, I could never imagine 14 00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:40,639 Speaker 1: a life without him. I imagine your husband can. By 15 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 1: the way, this comes from accurate fe nine five nine 16 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:44,840 Speaker 1: to one on the A am I the a whole 17 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:48,440 Speaker 1: sub breddit. So lately my husband has been acting different. 18 00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:53,000 Speaker 1: He's more distant, like he's checked out emotionally. I chalked 19 00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:55,200 Speaker 1: it up to stressed from work, or maybe just that 20 00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 1: we're both overwhelmed trying to balance everything. But then I 21 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 1: overheard something that I can't unhere, here we go. 22 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 3: That's what you can't unhear for now on for the 23 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 3: rest of you. 24 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 2: Oh God, trouf ye could have been worse. 25 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 3: I coulda like. 26 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,399 Speaker 1: He was talking to a couple of his friends and 27 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 1: they were discussing kids, parenting, et cetera. One of his 28 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: friends made some offhand comment about how hard parenting is, 29 00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:25,839 Speaker 1: and that's when my husband let loose. He started saying 30 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: how our son is too much to handle, that he 31 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:31,320 Speaker 1: feel like he's a burden. He even mentioned that sometimes 32 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,399 Speaker 1: he wishes he could give him up for adoption. 33 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:37,319 Speaker 2: Like what. I couldn't believe it. At first. 34 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:39,959 Speaker 1: I thought maybe he was frustrated in saying things out 35 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:45,400 Speaker 1: of anger or stress, but he kept going. He wasn't 36 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 1: just venting. He said he missed the freedom we had 37 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 1: before becoming parents and that he thinks it would be 38 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 1: better for everyone if we weren't stuck with this life. 39 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 2: Can he come back from this? 40 00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 4: Don't think so, because it's like, what the you even 41 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 4: if you really truly like oh, like I was just oh, 42 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 4: just ventinger or whatever else. But it's like, but if 43 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 4: you really feel then it's like, can I really trust 44 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 4: you to father? 45 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:14,080 Speaker 2: It's father? 46 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:14,239 Speaker 5: It? 47 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:19,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, but be a father to my child, our child 48 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:20,520 Speaker 2: can't say. 49 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 3: Everyone can vote right now, everyone vote At this moment. 50 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:29,119 Speaker 1: I was absolutely crushed. How could he talk about our 51 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 1: son like that. I would never give up on him, 52 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: not for anything. He's not a burden. He's a beautiful 53 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,520 Speaker 1: boy who just needs more understanding and patience. Hearing my 54 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: husband say those things about him just shattered me inside. 55 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: When I confronted him, he brushed it off, saying I 56 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: was overreacting, that he didn't really mean it, that he 57 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:51,799 Speaker 1: was just blowing off steam with friends. But how can 58 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: I not take that seriously? He's literally talking about abandoning 59 00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 1: our son. He didn't apologize. He said he's just overwhelmed 60 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 1: and feels like our son's autism is taking over our 61 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: lives and that he doesn't know how much more he 62 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 1: can take. But instead of working through it together, he's 63 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: talking about running away from the problem. Nicki Ferrell says, 64 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 1: I have two autistic children. I have two autistic children, 65 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 1: and I love them every bit as much as my 66 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: other two thousand percent. 67 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 4: Also idea I just had, which probably is what everyone's 68 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 4: thinking as well, Uh divorce, get child support, because that's 69 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:33,079 Speaker 4: the best way to get uh support to the child 70 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 4: from him. Because he's not. He's not going to be 71 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 4: the father that this kid deserves. So just take the money, yeah, 72 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 4: and and utilize it for exactly. 73 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 1: Kimberly Holly says, this one hits home. My oldest boy's autistic. 74 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 1: No one wanted me to give him up, and I 75 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 1: can't imagine how it reacts, especially my significant other. 76 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, x. 77 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: Ex Gloomy says they need a conversation, and Daniel Paperka 78 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 1: says autism does take over people's lives. To be fair, like, 79 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: it definitely is a hard thing to do. I think 80 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: what John's saying is like, it's a hard thing to do. 81 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: You kind of need to be all in and if 82 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 1: you're not, if you view it as a burden, it's 83 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,359 Speaker 1: probably going to be more damaging to the child to 84 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: have a parent that feels like that. 85 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, a lot of adverse effects like probably self hate, 86 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:23,160 Speaker 4: like just so many things. 87 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, come with that. Just take his money and use it. 88 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 2: Now I'm stuck. I don't know what to do. 89 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:31,479 Speaker 1: I feel like I can't stay with someone who sees 90 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 1: our child as a burden. But I also feel so 91 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: torn because we're married and I thought we'd always have 92 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,919 Speaker 1: each other's backs. Especially when it comes to raising our child. 93 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,799 Speaker 1: But if he's really feeling this, how can I trust 94 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 1: him to be there for our son and me in 95 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: the long run. I don't want to break up our family, 96 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,679 Speaker 1: but I also can't stay with someone who can even 97 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,840 Speaker 1: think about giving up our child. I love my son 98 00:04:56,320 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 1: more than anything, and I will never allow that. Am 99 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: I the a hole for wanting to leave my husband? 100 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:03,359 Speaker 2: After this? 101 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: Should I be trying harder to work this out? Or 102 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:10,600 Speaker 1: has it already gone too far?

I'm not defending anything 141 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,479 Speaker 1: your husband said, but it sounds like he's overwhelmed and 142 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,080 Speaker 1: needs help working through that. You accuse him of wanting 143 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: to run away from the problem, but is he taking 144 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 1: concrete steps to try to put up your son for adoption? 145 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 1: Is he talking about divorcing you because he doesn't want 146 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 1: to raise your son. He has the right to express 147 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: that he feels like he's breaking under the responsibility of 148 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 1: raising a special needs child. It sounds like he expressed 149 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 1: that in an ugly way, but it pushes many parents 150 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: to the brink, And you are the one who immediately 151 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 1: jumped to divorce. Do you think going through a divorce 152 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 1: would be better for your son? Something I would say 153 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 1: is something I've heard parents say is just raising any 154 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: kind of kid is hard, and there are points where 155 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,239 Speaker 1: you're like, fuck, should I be a parent? 156 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 2: Am I ready for this responsibility? Not everyone? 157 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: You know, some people are made for it, But like 158 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 1: I have heard that before, it doesn't mean like they're 159 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 1: not going to step up and take responsibility. So I'm 160 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 1: curious with that additional context with this comment. 161 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 3: If that changes, I think it would it would be 162 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 3: easier for the kid because imagine growing up with the 163 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 3: father that reasons Yeah, yeah, but I do. 164 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 1: It may not be that this father resents. He's just like, 165 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 1: I don't even like I'm just I'm just breaking. I'm 166 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 1: just breaking under the pressure. It might not be resentful 167 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: like I think we were assuming in the in the 168 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: past that's resentful, But I'm sure there are plenty of 169 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 1: parents out there that are like, I'm going to show 170 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: up the best way I can for my kid, but. 171 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 4: Fuck, yeah, this is hard and that need to just 172 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,079 Speaker 4: that does deserve to be acknowledged. I think that it's 173 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 4: like again already raising a child. It's like he probably 174 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 4: wasn't prepared or k news. You know, there's no there's 175 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 4: no there's no rule book on any of it.

Burnout is a thing, 230 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,440 Speaker 1: and depending on the severity to the autism and any 231 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:39,560 Speaker 1: company conditions, it could be rough. I know from personal experience, 232 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 1: I agree. What's needful here is professional support and counseling, 233 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 1: not Reddit and spaniard man forty says, I have an 234 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:47,920 Speaker 1: artistic three year old, and my pretty wife broke down 235 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:51,320 Speaker 1: and literally said the same thing. Opie's husband said, she 236 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 1: has been overwhelmed a lot lately, and I think she 237 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,440 Speaker 1: just exploded. I learned early on after finding out. Our 238 00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:59,719 Speaker 1: kid was statistic that this crap will come up from 239 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 1: time to time, especially when they are young. There's a 240 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 1: ton of unknowns and it can be extremely overwhelming at times. 241 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 1: Inventing should not be taken seriously. And then Nikki's back says, wow. 242 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:15,720 Speaker 1: Then Op's husband's reaction is definitely from being overwhelmed about 243 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 1: the whole thing. And then Chloe Girl says, and depending 244 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 1: on the severity of autism and any company conditions, it 245 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 1: can be rough. And they say, that's it. You've said 246 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,199 Speaker 1: it all. Autism can be hard on both parents and 247 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 1: the child. It's understandable the husband is speaking out of frustration, 248 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 1: but he did that in an ugly way. They should 249 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 1: really get professional assistants and support. And that's where it ends. 250 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 2: Key thing. 251 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,840 Speaker 4: There was the example the commentary said of like his 252 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 4: wife talked to him. That was the wife going directly 253 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,960 Speaker 4: to the partner. This was the partner talking behind his 254 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 4: wife's back. Yeah, that is a huge difference. 255 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 1: I think, And I yeah, and I think it's like, 256 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 1: ideally any issues that you have with raising your children 257 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,679 Speaker 1: should be brought up to the partner first. 258 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 2: I think, honestly, it is ten times better just sharing 259 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 2: with the part. That's my take. 260 00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,200 Speaker 1: I agree, but I'd love to know what y'all think. 261 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 1: Put your answers in the commons below, and with that 262 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 1: we're gonna get into this next story. 263 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 2: Yes, sir, Oh, here we go, guys.

Fast forward 364 00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 4: to a few months ago, I got a LinkedIn request 365 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,919 Speaker 4: from him and brought a smile to my face. It 366 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:03,920 Speaker 4: was nice to see what he was up to, especially 367 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,400 Speaker 4: since he struggled a lot in school.

She's 420 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:43,160 Speaker 4: studying abroad in Belgium and we live in a Latin 421 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 4: American country, so they will not cross paths. My wife, 422 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 4: my son, and my ex wife have reassured me that 423 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 4: I didn't do anything wrong. From my perspective, I hired 424 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:55,160 Speaker 4: him purely based on his qualifications and work ethic. He's 425 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 4: a temporary intern who plans to continue his studies abroad 426 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 4: once he graduates, so this isn't a long term. But 427 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,440 Speaker 4: my daughter's reaction has made me second guess myself. I've 428 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,200 Speaker 4: always prioritized her well being and want to make sure 429 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 4: I'm not overlooking something. Maybe I'm too detached because when 430 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:12,439 Speaker 4: I was younger, I stayed on good terms with some 431 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:14,440 Speaker 4: of my ex's families and I didn't see it as 432 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 4: a big deal. 433 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 2: I don't think it's that bad. 434 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, wait till you see this, Just wait, 435 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 3: just wait. 436 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:22,880 Speaker 4: I really care about my daughter, and I don't want 437 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,160 Speaker 4: it to feel like I'm prioritizing someone else over her. 438 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 4: But at the same time, I want to be fair 439 00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 4: and give credit where it's due, especially when someone is 440 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,920 Speaker 4: working hard and making something of themselves. I would really 441 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 4: like to hear everyone's outside perspectives.

Her 772 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:45,640 Speaker 4: mother didn't like it, asked you to stop, You apologize 773 00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:48,439 Speaker 4: to stop. Now she's icing you out, which you can't 774 00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:51,760 Speaker 4: do anything further about because again you've apologized and corrected 775 00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 4: your action. 776 00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:55,719 Speaker 8: Yeah, Opie, I mean, obviously it was weird that she 777 00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:57,680 Speaker 8: asked in the first place for op to stop calling 778 00:36:57,719 --> 00:36:59,080 Speaker 8: her my baby, but oh. 779 00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:01,000 Speaker 7: He did, and she's still upset. 780 00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:04,960 Speaker 2: I don't understand. I'm truly lost, not the a hole 781 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:06,200 Speaker 2: for this isolated incident. 782 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:08,840 Speaker 4: But do you have a pattern of being overly fond 783 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:12,719 Speaker 4: slash they're passing or ignoring boundaries and recycling dislike behavior. 784 00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:15,960 Speaker 4: If not, then I don't see the problem here. Obie says, 785 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:17,960 Speaker 4: thank you so much for your thoughts. I do not 786 00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:22,000 Speaker 4: have a pattern of ignoring boundaries whatsoever. I'm kind of 787 00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:25,320 Speaker 4: the most communicative one of the family. I'm kind of 788 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 4: the most humble person. 789 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:26,960 Speaker 5: I know. 790 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:30,440 Speaker 7: I mean some people might struggle with that. 791 00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:35,600 Speaker 2: Not me, Obie seems like a great person. But I couldn't. 792 00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:37,759 Speaker 2: I couldn't help that. That's up on the opportunity. 793 00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:41,840 Speaker 4: I one understood my sister in law was setting a 794 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:44,360 Speaker 4: boundary when she pulled me aside, and new to respect 795 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,200 Speaker 4: it because at the end of the day, she's the parent, 796 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:50,040 Speaker 4: not me. Uh, this has never happened to me before, 797 00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:52,920 Speaker 4: to be honest, which is what which is making it 798 00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:54,200 Speaker 4: so much more disorienting. 799 00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:54,440 Speaker 5: You know. 800 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:57,360 Speaker 4: Also, me and my younger sibling are much closer in 801 00:37:57,440 --> 00:37:59,840 Speaker 4: age than me and my older brother, so this definitely 802 00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 4: has not stemmed out of our sibling dynamic. At least, 803 00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:06,240 Speaker 4: She's not as close with her siblings and has distant parents, 804 00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:09,440 Speaker 4: so maybe the general involvement of my family overall has 805 00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:12,800 Speaker 4: affected has affected her. This is just speculation on my 806 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:17,320 Speaker 4: behalf though, because she hasn't said this to me. Another 807 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:20,200 Speaker 4: commenter says, you say your niece is seven and you 808 00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:23,040 Speaker 4: are twenty three, So how long has it been since 809 00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:25,160 Speaker 4: you have gone off to college and how much time 810 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:27,560 Speaker 4: did you spend together. I'm not saying that you've done 811 00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:31,520 Speaker 4: anything wrong, because you haven't. When called out, you apologized 812 00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:34,400 Speaker 4: and corrected. When I am suggesting that is, if you 813 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:37,480 Speaker 4: babysat regularly for long periods of time, there's a chance 814 00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:41,360 Speaker 4: her niece has been missing you more now now that 815 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:43,919 Speaker 4: you've gone, and she has missed your sister in law, 816 00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 4: her mother, and there could be more of a chance 817 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:49,480 Speaker 4: of you saying my baby triggered some jealousy and resentment 818 00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 4: from your sister in law, which is kind of what 819 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:55,840 Speaker 4: we were theorizing before. Like sometimes how kids are closer 820 00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:58,520 Speaker 4: to their nannies than their work parents, who don't even 821 00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:01,360 Speaker 4: know their favorite food. I shows an extreme example to 822 00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 4: make that explanation easier, if that helps. Opie response to this, saying, so, 823 00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:07,560 Speaker 4: I've been away for coming up on three years now. 824 00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:09,880 Speaker 4: When my niece was an infant. My sister in law 825 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:12,000 Speaker 4: and brother actually lived with us for a little over 826 00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:14,919 Speaker 4: a year, and I babysat for her almost daily while 827 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:17,640 Speaker 4: they worked. When they moved out, I saw her about 828 00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:20,479 Speaker 4: once or twice every weekend because my brother and sister 829 00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:22,800 Speaker 4: in law would visit them. I still talk to my 830 00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:25,000 Speaker 4: family slash niece about once a week and I do, 831 00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:27,279 Speaker 4: and I do have time where I talk to my 832 00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:30,359 Speaker 4: niece on FaceTime because she takes my brother and sister 833 00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:33,000 Speaker 4: on his phone to chat with me.
