Girl Gets Hurt After A Nasty Fall, Her Mom Doesn’t Want To Call Dad Because They Are Separated And Not Speaking
We all know that family dynamics can be quite complicated, especially if there is a separation or divorce, plus children can also complicate things. However, I think many of us understand that a lot of things have to be considered when someone separates and there are kids involved.
We wanted to share another Reddit AITA story where someone posts a situation and asks if they're wrong for how they acted or reacted to the situation. In today's Reddit post, we'll be diving into a situation where a mother doesn't choose to tell her ex about their daughter's injury and hospital visit but instead tells her brother to.
This situation stirred up a lot of conflict in OP's life and also in the comments below the post. It's not every day that we have comments that are almost completely unanimous on the decision.
She's ultimately asking if she's wrong for not being the one to call the dad, but once you hear her reasoning for it your opinion will most likely be the same as everyone else's. If you want to hear the whole story and find out what people had to say in the comments, then stay tuned as we go through it below.
OP starts the story off by explaining how her daughter hurt herself and why her brother was there with her.
mialia90She explains how he didn't answer right away and then she goes on to explain what he had to say when her brother left the room.
mialia90This is the first comment and right off the bat they are calling her TA in the situation.
nope-111I disagree with this because I feel that the daughter's father should be contacted no matter what.
MatiPheonixIt honestly makes me feel weird that she was okay with not calling him asap. Dad would be the first person I'd call.
trfkahThis is true too and honestly she should have probably just called with her phone anyway or had him call with her phone.
UsuallyWrite2Some people call the ex TA because of his lack of response to her brother's calls. 20 calls probably is an emergency.
fluffhouse1942It seems that some people aren't on the same page with whether or not she's in the wrong.

It is interesting but as others have said, he could've had DND or something on.

I mean she has to put herself in his shoes but I'm sure she would've answered within the first 5 calls.

I think both sides are wrong and she should find out why he didn't answer to get to the bottom of that for future possible emergencies.

Ex probably is not the best person, but honestly she should've called him herself.

I think it's a little controversial on this post, and a lot of people can see both sides of the situation. I think that both of them should really work on communication since this seems like a problem, and they also should come up with safety numbers just in case something happens to both the mom and the daughter.
What do you all think?
