A father has been slammed by netizens and called names after playing out a cruel prank on his wife who just gave birth to their child.
As an anonymous mother revealed in her Reddit post, her husband has always enjoyed pranking other people even though she believes he takes his trickeries too far.
While she got used to his sense of humor, the woman was recently left furious after her partner stopped helping around the house and refused to have a proper conversation with her.
According to the mom, who just gave birth a month ago, her husband quit helping with the chores and stopped caring for her and the baby for two days.
“I honestly had no idea what was going on. I tried to talk to him but he refused to say what was wrong until I snapped,” she wrote in her post.
“He told me his mum said that our baby doesn’t really look like him and suggested that he secretly do a DNA test. I was speechless.
“He said he did it without making me notice and got the results two days ago and it turned out our son isn’t his and that he’ll be moving out of the house and will contact an attorney in the morning.”
As the woman added, she knew that something was off about her husband’s allegations which is why she continued to pressure him into providing an explanation and showing his test results as proof.
“I called him a liar and demanded to see the test result that he ‘did behind my back’. He stalled until he suddenly burst into laughter. I was dumbfounded,” she revealed. “He kept saying that I got pranked and kept laughing at the face I made.”
According to the upset mum, she went on to yell at her husband for making her do everything on her own for two whole days for the sake of his prank. The man, however, allegedly defended his actions and even went on to reveal that his cousin had helped him prepare the prank.
While the husband eventually apologized for his prank, the woman was left furious after he insisted that she was in the wrong for getting so mad at him and contacting his cousin.
After asking Reddit for advice, people were quick to show support for the mother saying her husband was being cruel and abusive.
“I am shaking with anger for you. Your husband was deliberately cruel to you four weeks after childbirth. You are still physically healing from a major medical procedure on top of having to deal with all the hormonal changes of giving birth. This is not a prank. This is abuse,” someone wrote.
“Gee, what a surprise that he also got two days totally off to pull off his ‘prank’. Tell him he’s on full time baby duty while you get to relax and do nothing for two days,” another one suggested.
