Father material

Today, according to my husband, if I die first he won’t be looking after my son from a previous marriage. Either my sister will have to take him or he’ll go into foster care. He doesn’t want kids of his own, so he’ll be dammed if he has to look after someone else’s just because I’m dead. FML

Might be time to throw the whole husband away. 😡😡😡

If the biological father is alive, legally thats where he'd go. That fact aside, that's a pretty shitty person you married. Should had that convo before getting married. what a jerk!

I’ll correct that for you. “Today my ex-husband...” because I’ll be damned if I’m married to a man that feels that way about my child.

Im sure he won’t have you worry about you dying first with that type of behavior

That's a tough situation to put him in. Especially if your son and he don't have a good relationship to begin with. If that's the way he feels though maybe your son would be better off with him not being the lone parental figure if that situation occurred.

A lot of people saying he'd go to the bio dad, but if this is a topic that's got any validity, either the dad is unfit (may have been abusive) or he's dead. Also, people asking why they're discussing this: parents always want to have a backup incase they die. My mother ensured my sister and I wouldn't be split up if she died (my sister's dad was dead). As to why she married someone who didn't want kids, why did he marry someone who already had a kid? She was probably lead to believe he didn't want his own kids, but this one was fine since he clearly wasn't a deal breaker.
