Just curious ..

People can be ugly... and while the money may have something to do with it... it is not often covered is her cultural upbringing... it was considered the right thing to do and all but (or maybe was) taboo to keep a kid with downs... and the overwhelming response to/about her made her see the error of her thinking...

I think it was the half a million.

"Cultural misunderstanding" is a cop out. She gave her husband an ultimatum. He kept his son. To me, it sounds like his wife had a pretty good idea of what down's syndrome is, and she didn't want the baby because of that reason.

Now, $500,000 later, she is in love with her son?

Really?
 
I read elsewhere that she and the father actually got back together a month after the baby was born, not a year as the story states...

I would agree with you bit before the father got the money her side of the story came out as well...

Having Down's child myself and wife like that it a no brainier the child come first but that amount of money I am afraid will not be enough for lifetime.i believe NZ ha similar social benefits system as uk and he will lose a lot of benefit money Grummers if he come online explain NZ system.
mental handicapped are better off in some situations society more accepting but time he found somewhere to live and carere he will not be that better off.
She sound money grabber so I hope all money be in child's name rather than either parent.she Armenian so could be Christian and she know morals be wrong but she get NZ citenship.There whole more to this
 
How anyone give that beautiful baby ??? Yeah I say would it's the $$$ that brought the mom back and maybe a little change of heart.
That is one cute baby !
 
If I found myself in the exact same situation, I would not have welcomed her back. A LOT would need to change. A divorce over a baby? What is she going to do now? Get back in his good graces, then divorce him over something else? Get half or all of that 500k? Maybe she can claim "cultural differences" then too. Apparently, 500k quickly evaporated any of those "cultural issues" she had before. Strange how that works.

Poor guy. He made the right decision. I know what he is thinking too ... It is far better for a child to have a good relationship with their mom, but that works both ways.
 
I wouldn't trust her with the baby but if the dad said no she can't come back there could had been a case over this . If that did happen I would think the dad would won.
 
cultural differences. in some cultures in Asia and South America, having a kid with a disability is shame and dishonor on the family.

In US, most babies with Down Syndrome are aborted.

I know , my dad was Russian and they lock up kids with disability and forget about them. My dad called me 'jackass' and told people a joke about me being jackass. He told a teacher that I became friends with the joke and my teacher couldn't believe it. This is why I don't trust the mother in this story.

Yeah, I don't trust her either.

But you seem to have an attitude problem and distrust of women in general deeply ingrained. It often comes out in your writing.

Maybe she had a normal change of heart after her initial reaction.

Even if not the child will benefit from all the people he is able to have in his life.

If this were true, I would not be married. While it is true there are those whom I don't trust, it isn't women in general. There are plenty of men that have untrustworthy characteristics too.

Are you attempting to portray me as someone who hates women? A mysogynist? What would the purpose of that be unless you have some ulterior agenda?

No agenda. Just an observation over the years.

And as for being married, I have on occasion given a thought to your present wife when you were ranting about women, with a bit of pity.
