Cops Follow The Sound Of Dog Barking In Cornfield In Order To Find Missing Child

Being lost is something most of us will experience at one point of our lives. Whether it’s during a vacation, in a new city, or while visiting somebody – most of us will experience this uncomfortable feeling of not recognizing our surroundings and not knowing where to go from here. This is already an unpleasant experience when you’re an adult or late teen. When small children get lost, it can be much more frightening. Not only for the child who can’t find their way back home or to their parents but also for said parents. Nothing is worse for a parent than losing their children, not knowing where they are or whether they’re safe.

As told by the Inside Edition, Timberlyn Merritt from Missouri is one mother who experienced exactly this horrible feeling. She has a daughter, Remy, who at the time of this incident was 3 years old. As a stay-at-home mom, Timberlyn is always busy taking care of her family. Their at the time 1-year-old Yorkie called Heath was their constant companion at home. The family owned a house with a beautiful yard, directly next to sprawling cornfields.

One beautiful day during summer in 2018, Timberlyn suddenly realized that Remy seemed to be missing. As she realized her daughter had suddenly vanished one minute from the next, it was beginning to get dark. She immediately assumed her daughter might have wandered off into the dense and far-reaching cornfield next to their house. As any good mother would be in that situation, Timberlyn was immediately worried and scared.

“My heart was definitely racing,”Ā she told Inside Edition.

She quickly searched the area herself, calling for her daughter again and again. Unfortunately, she didn’t hear or see anything. She called the police to report her missing daughter before going back out into the by then dark cornfields. She walked through them shouting “Remy!” over and over again.

Timberlyn believed that their pet Yorkie Heath had wandered off into the cornfield, with Remy following her little furry friend close behind. Word soon spread about the missing girl, and soon the entire farming community showed up and joined in on the search. More than 100 people took time and arrived in the dark of the night to look for the little girl. The search went on through the night. Timberlyn recalls that she was worried how her daughter was faring as it grew darker and temperatures colder.

“I thought she was gonna be scared. She was all alone. Didn’t know if she knew we were coming for her.”

A search-and-rescue helicopter circled the area looking for Remy while police canines walked through the area. While nobody assumed a kidnapping had happened, there was still reason to worry about the little girl’s safety.

“There are all kinds of wild animals, we hear coyotes all the time,” Timberlyn explained.

After 12 whole hours of searching, things were starting to look grim. Luckily, one of the police dogs suddenly barked. The police then heard a weaker bark, half a mile away from the home of the family. The police quickly let the dogs lead them to the area where they found Remy and her beloved Heath. She was fast asleep with her faithful dog right by her side, barking for attention.

“She told us he stayed all night with her out there,” her mother said, “that little dog Heath is definitely a hero.”

How to Make Amazing Non-Toxic, Long-Lasting, Organic Deodorant

The vast majority of commercial antiperspirants and deodorants are loaded with dangerous chemicals that impact the skin and lead to irritations and hormonal imbalances.

Nowadays, many antiperspirants contain aluminum to dry out the sweat. By injecting aluminum ions into the cells when your body starts swelling it keeps the ducts closed to prevent sweat get out. On the other hand, it is a much better option to use natural deodorants that allow sweat and toxins to leave the body instead of trapping them inside.

Fortunately, you can easily make the following homemade deodorant spray using safe and recognizable all-natural ingredients. The preparation process is extremely easy and very effective that youā€™ll never need to buy deodorant again. This is a pretty frugal way to enjoy your arm-pit needs and enable toxins and sweat to leave the body instead of keeping them inside.

Moreover, deodorants mainly contain antimicrobial chemicals to prevent only the body odor, yet not the flow of sweat. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) is warning that the regular use of such antimicrobials may cause antibiotic resistant strains of bacteria

In most cases, the main antimicrobial chemicals used are either triclosan or polyhexamethylene biguanide.Ā In addition, the majority of these commercial antiperspirants and deodorants neglect to keep the awful smell caused by apocrine sweat mixed with the bacteria.

Hereā€™s how to prepare the amazing non-toxic, long-lasting, organic deodorant:

Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup baking soda
  • 1/4 cup arrowroot powder
  • 10 drop of any essential oil
  • 5-6 tablespoons Coconut oil

Instructions:

At first, mix the coconut oil, baking soda, and arrowroot powder in a suitable container, combine the mixture thoroughly using a spoon. Next, add the essential oil, and transfer the mixture in the container that has a lid, and put it in the fridge.

It will definitely be a bit strange to use this natural deodorant at first, but as soon as you experience its great effects you will never buy another one from the store. Plus, the texture is about the same as store bought.

Black Bear Hilariously Steals Amazon Package From Woman’s Home

Weā€™ve all been there: you order something you either desperately want or need from Amazon and patiently wait for the day it will finally show up on your doorstep. Itā€™s a moment of pure bliss to finally open up the parcel and receive all the goodies inside. For one woman in Connecticut, she had to wait a bit longer to get the contents she ordered after someone stole her package from her front step. Fortunately, she had security cameras outside of her home that managed to catch the culprit in the act: a black bear.

On Aug. 23, 2021, Kristin Levine of Bristol, Connecticut, received a number of security alerts that there was someone in her driveway after her Amazon package had already been dropped off. However, it wasnā€™t a lingering delivery driver or a nosey neighbor that caused her security system to alert her. Confused, Levine checked on the situation, only to discover that a black bear had stolen her package straight from her front steps and had carried it in his mouth as he took a leisurely stroll through her neighborā€™s yard.

While most people would be horrified or angry to find out that someone had stolen something from them, Levine couldnā€™t help but find the entire ordeal extremely funny, along with many other people around the world. The hilarious footage of the thief in action has since made its way to the internet and gone viral, bringing some comedic relief to anyone who may need it. Since most people typically love videos of cute animals performing silly tasks, itā€™s easy to see why everyone has gotten a kick out of Levineā€™s security footage.

Rather than be upset that herĀ AmazonĀ package had been stolen, Levine couldnā€™t help but find the entire situation absolutely hysterical. Speaking withĀ NBC Connecticut, Levine explained that she received an alert from her security system about five minutes after her Amazon package had been dropped off on her front steps. After getting a second alert, LevineĀ saidĀ she was ā€œtaken abackā€ on account that she was not expecting anyone else to be in her driveway or her yard, and so she began her investigation.

According toĀ USA Today, the bear carried the package in its mouth and held onto it before dropping it off in a nearby neighborā€™s yard. Levine mentioned that it seemed like the bear had no interest in the contents of the parcel: several rolls of toilet paper. ā€œIt was hysterical, like I said,ā€ the Connecticut womanĀ explained. ā€œI knew nothing in there was going to be irreplaceable, so it was a fun afternoon for sure.ā€

Levine thought the situation was so funny that she uploaded it toĀ FacebookĀ on Aug. 23, 2021, in a post that has since gone viral. ā€œYea so if anyone sees an Amazon package in the Chippens Hill area with my name on itā€¦ feel free to bring it back,ā€ sheĀ wrote. Her video showcased the bear slowly walking away from her driveway with the parcel still in its mouth. Since then, people have been flooding the comment section comparing the bear to the bear from theĀ CharminĀ toilet paper commercials, as perĀ USA Today. However, it seemed like this bear was far less enthusiastic about toilet paper compared to the blue bear in the Charmin commercials.

Classical Pianist Adds Extended Harmony To ‘Deranged Yelling Cat’ ā€” A Masterpiece Emerges

It goes without saying that the internet is a strange place ā€” and YouTube is no exception. According to Statista, users uploaded an average of 500 hours of video to the platform every minute in May 2019, which means thereā€™s plenty of potential for there to be a few weird videos on the platform. But weirdness isnā€™t always a bad thing. Thanks to the video platform, you can watch a porcupine eat a carrot or a group of nuns banging their heads to techno. And now, thanks to Conor Broderickā€™s Harmony Works channel, you can watch a deranged cat as its yowls are harmonized by a piano!

We know that sounds oddly niche and that your time is limited, but the video really is funny to watch. The original video, which went viral after the account BrooklynStray uploaded it in 2011, shows a clearly upset cat as it lets out a couple of strange, yodel-like yells. Amazingly, the video has accumulated more than 15 million views, making it somewhat of a well-known clip on the platform. Broderick, who dedicates his channel to posting his music and harmonizing viral videos, breathed new life into the original clip in 2020. And the YouTube community has loved it.

Although Broderickā€™s video has only received around 30,000 views ā€” a far cry from 15 million ā€” the comments section is full of users saying how much they love the video. One YouTube even calls it the ā€œbest video on the internet to date.ā€ Read on to find out more about this fun video and Broderickā€™s unique YouTube channel.

Be sure to reach the end of this article to see the full video šŸ™‚

While Broderickā€™s remixed version of the yelling cat is far from being viral, heā€™s certainly convinced his fans that itā€™s worth watching.

ā€œThis NEEDS to go viral! So much talent here. You nailed this!!!ā€ one userĀ wrote.

ā€œThis is the best harmonized animal video on the net. Never before have a video reached so deep into my soul in such a profound way. My only wish now is that there was more of this to cherish,ā€ another viewerĀ added.

ā€œI suspect I’m one of many who will immediately add this to their, BEST THINGS EVER, lists! Don’t you hiss at me!ā€ one of the top commentsĀ reads.

Other viral videos that Broderick has harmonized includeĀ ā€œToilet Grenadeā€Ā andĀ ā€œSQUISH THAT CAT.ā€

And beyond the silly stuff, Broderick is also a talented musician. In a talented cover, the pianist gets groovy playing along to Amber Markā€™s ā€œMixer,ā€ which really allows Broderick to show off his musical ability. And thatā€™s not to say that his other videos donā€™t require talent ā€” because they do. After all, harmonizing guttural cat noises isnā€™t easy.

A harmony, according toĀ Encyclopedia Britannica, is broadly defined as ā€œthe sound of two or more notes heard simultaneously.ā€

ā€œHarmony in the Western sense is a comparatively recent invention having a rather limited geographic spread. It arose less than a millennium ago in the music of western Europe and is embraced today only in those musical cultures that trace their origins to that area,ā€ the Encyclopedia Britannica entry explains.

The Key to making a harmony that sounds good is following a pattern of notes that ā€œis based on certain relationships among musical tones that the human ear accepts almost reflexively.ā€

As you can see below, Broderick has mastered the art of harmonizing.

Horse Who Survived Accident On Her Way To The Butcher Gives Birth To ā€˜Miracleā€™ Healthy Colt

A horse by the name of Journey has had quite a life journey so far. She has also been met with plenty of obstacles and challenges but has managed to overcome them all. Back in October 2020, she was one of the horses involved in a tragic tractor-trailer accident on a highway in Washington, Missouri. The horses had put on the vehicle in the middle of the night to be transported hundreds of miles away to a slaughterhouse.

A total of 15 out of the 29 horses survived the accident, with 11 of them going directly to theĀ Longmeadow Rescue RanchĀ in Union, Missouri. Fortunately, all but one were kept safe and healthy at the ranch, as one horse had been suffering so much that veterinariansĀ determinedĀ it was best to humanely euthanize the animal.

Although the road to recovery has been challenging at times, it has also been full of some wonderful surprises. After long days and nights full of tending to the horses and making sure they were properly cared for, workers on the rescue ranch were surprised to discover that there would soon be a new addition to the crew. They had discovered that Journey, one of the surviving horses, was pregnant.

After receiving the care and treatments she needed, Journey was strong and healthy enough to deliver a beautiful baby boy. The colt’s birth has been considered a miracle due to the detrimental circumstances his mother almost faced back in mid-October 2020 and the fact that he was born perfectly healthy.

A Second Chance At Life

According to theĀ Longmeadow Rescue Ranch, Journey was one of the surviving horses of the horrific tractor-trailer accident that occurred on Oct. 18, 2020. The horses were on the trailer, being transported to a slaughterhouse before the accident occurred. The rescue ranch explained that Journey only suffered minimal injuries but had sustained abrasions in several areas on her front right leg that made it painful for her to walk.

On top of that, she was also extremely underweight, which could have been detrimental to her and her colt’s health, as she was pregnant at the time. After undergoing an ultrasound, veterinarians were able to determine that her baby appeared to be healthy.

The Longmeadow Rescue RanchĀ reportedĀ that Journey gave birth to a colt in the early morning of Aug. 16, 2021, and that “the mother and baby have bonded perfectly.” Journey has also shown an immense amount of love and care toward her baby boy namedĀ Cruiser. Longmeadow reported that the birth went “smoothly for both of them, and they appear to be doing very well.”Ā Fox 2Ā called the colt’s birth a “miracle” considering what almost happened to his mother in October 2020.

“Journey has really been given a second chance at a happier life here at Longmeadow and I think this new baby really symbolizes that,” Longmeadow Rescue Ranch director Amanda MullenĀ said. “It’s wonderful to know that something good could come from that tragedy.” Longmeadow reported that both Journey and her colt will be adaptable in about eight months, while plenty of other farm animals on the ranch are currently available for adoption.

Distressed Dog Won’t Stop Barking At Pregnant Mom Until She Realizes The Dog’s Trying To Save Her

Every good dog owner loves their dog, but even the best-behaved dogs can be very annoying when they want to be ā€” from barking when they want food to whining to go out for the tenth time in a row. But it turns out that occasionally a dog’s bark can be life-saving.

Of course, there are guard dogs who protect our homes with their barking, police dogs that can find contraband and trained rescue dogs who can seek out survivors in the wake of disasters. But this story ā€” about a normal dog with a big heart ā€” is different and sure to capture your heart.

At first, this life-saving dog named Keola managed to seriously annoy her family with her barking, but it turned out that she might have been trying to save her ownerā€™s life. Alhanna Butler from Doncaster, South Yorkshire, U.K., was pregnant, and when Keola kept barking at her, she decided to go to the doctor and was diagnosed just in time.

The disease that Alhanna had contracted was so rare that doctors had to develop a new antibiotic in order to treat the bug, which they had never seen before. In any case, this story from 2016 shows just how much dogs can understand about us, and how beautifully they can support us through our major life events. Whether Keola truly could tell something was wrong remains to be seen, but Alhanna and husband Ricky Butler seems sure of her special ability, which seems to rival that of many trained doctors.

Alhanna Butler/Keola and Lincolns adventures/Facebook (Copyright)
Alhanna understands that her dog Keola has a deep intuitive sense about things, so much so that Keola managed to save her life! The Mirror reports that Keola is an Akita who seemed to help Alhanna figure out that her pregnancy pains were more cause for concern than doctors had originally thought.

When a then-21-year-old Alhanna got pregnant, it was Keola who helped figure it out by bringing Alhanna the negative test she had thrown away. Upon closer inspection, it showed a faint line and Alhanna realized she was actually pregnant! Keola had a special intuition that would end up saving Alhanna’s life.

When Alhanna reached 18 weeks of pregnancy, she began to fall ill more often. Keola would wait patiently with her near the bathroom and attempt to take care of her. However, as time progressed, Alhanna began to experience severe back pain and sickness that required the attention of a midwife at the hospital. The midwife told Alhanna that her small frame made the pregnancy difficult and that there was nothing majorly wrong with her.

“It was awful. People thought I was just being a wimp and kept telling me, ‘Oh if you can’t handle this, how are you going to cope with having a baby. But I could barely walk,” Alhanna said when she recalled her experience. Keola seemed to senseĀ that the discomfort that Alhanna was feeling was abnormal. She would not stop howling and crying at Alhanna, and would stare at her for hours, according to theĀ Mirror. This behavior certainly affected Alhanna, who became worried that things weren’t really as OK as the doctors told her.

“When the doctors sent me home and said there was nothing seriously wrong, she just sat staring at me so intently that it really scared me,”Ā AlhannaĀ said, who recorded Keola’s strange behavior and uploaded it onto Facebook. It was posted more as a joke than anything else but soon found friends and family calling and telling her to take Keola’s behavior seriously. “Then my mum phoned and said ‘listen to your dog, she is trying to tell you something’. It turns out she was absolutely right ā€”Ā and she saved our lives. She is the most amazing dog and I owe her my life,” AlhannaĀ saidĀ gratefully.

When Alhanna listened to Keola and finally went to the hospital, she collapsed immediately and had to be taken into intensive care, where she remained for a whole month. It turns out that the pain Alhanna was going through was due to a “superbug” that was so rare that it had affected only one other person before.

The bug was antibiotic-resistant, so a whole new antibiotic had to be created especially for Alhanna in a lab to tackle the infection. The first two weeks were critical, and Alhanna was told that if she had comeĀ in even a day later, she might not have been as lucky as she was.Ā The MirrorĀ reports that Alhanna barely remembers those two weeks and that there was a very real possibility that she may have died due to her double kidney infection.

“No one really understood how ill I was ā€” but Keola did. She would nudge me and cry and I could never figure out why she had suddenly started doing this. Ricky said she was distraught whenever I went to work, when she had never minded before,” Alhanna told theĀ Mirror. “I now know Keola was definitely trying to tell me something was wrong. I just wish I had listened to her sooner,” she added.

It is certainly incredible that Keola was able to figure out the Alhanna needed critical help. After being in the hospital for more than a month, Alhanna convinced her doctors to let her go home for a couple of hours to let Keola know that she was okay.

When she was home, her husband was able to film the whole heart-touching encounter. She uploaded a “thank you” video dedicated to Keola after her son, Lincoln, was born, and the video quickly went viral and has reached millions of people.Ā “I have absolutely no doubt that both me and Lincoln would not be here today if it wasn’t for Keola,”Ā Alhanna said.

After Pregnant Horse Gives Birth To Foal Owner Notices Her Peculiar Afterbirth And Goes Running

Saratoga Stud is a horse farm in Natal Midlands, South Africa that was founded by a woman named Jenni B. She wanted to make sure that horses in the area had the care that they needed and that they could find a suitable home where they could run free.
One of Jenni’s mares became pregnant and delivered a stunning surprise in 2014 ā€” she unexpectedly birthed a second horse right after the first one.

Be sure to reach the end of this article to see the full video šŸ™‚

Jenni and her husband Guy worked late into the night when Treliver D’Aquitaine (a.k.a. Daisy), a horse imported from England, went into labor, according to the video’sĀ description. The mare was overdue by about seven days, so Jenni knew that it could be a long night as she delivered the baby.

Soon after Jenni and Guy arrived at the stable where Daisy was housed, she delivered a beautifulĀ colt. Daisy was rather large while she was pregnant, so Jenni was surprised that her colt was on the small side. However, the horse seemed happy and healthy, so Jenni went about caring for the mother and her baby.

According to theirĀ YouTube video, while Jenni was caring for the baby her dogs alerted her that something was happening. After examining Daisy, Jenni discovered that the horse was going to have another baby!

She could see the feet as they were coming through the birth canal. Unfortunately, the baby was in aĀ breech position. Daisy lay down so that it was easier on her body to deliver the baby, but she wanted to turn her attention to her new colt instead.

Daisy soon gave birth to a beautiful filly named Duet. The horses are together all the time as they walk in the pasture, eat grass, and drink water.

Jenni provides more information regarding the birth in her YouTubeĀ description. SheĀ writes, “Our dogs were barking at the house, so Guy went down to see what was happening, and the afterbirth started coming out.” She continues by writing, “I felt inside her and felt two feet, Guy got back to the stables, and I told him to pull out the second baby as quickly as possible […O]ur hearts stopped watching to see if the second foal would be alive and she was!! She was breathing…. Daisy had had a second foal, aĀ cremelloĀ filly! She was tiny but strong and a fighter, wanting to stand within minutes and ready to drink once standing.”

According to Jenni’s YouTubeĀ description, both colts were in good health following the birth.

Since Jenni uploaded the birth on YouTube, it has spread across the Internet like wildfire. As of early 2021,Ā it has amassed more than 2 million views, 2,000 likes, and 150 comments. Who knew that horses were so popular on YouTube? But if the comments are any indication, it seems like there’s certainly an audience for interesting horse videos.

“My stable has twins to!” one userĀ commented. “They are both paints and have separation anxiety. You only need to put one on a lead line and the other will follow and they will not leave each other’s side unless there’s food, but they still won’t leave unless you bring it closer so it can be with the other.”

Another commenter marveled at the beauty of the video,Ā writing, “Aww babies…Beautiful mama; she’s so calm! It’s a marvel to me that animal babies can stand at all, right away. After being all tucked in like a ball in their mama’s womb; they’re rudely ejected out in this weird environment, and boom they stand up. When they’re all legs, like foals are, too! How the heck long does it take a human baby; a year!”

As it turns out, horse births ā€” especially when twins are involved ā€” are fascinating. According to theĀ American Association of Equine Practitioners (AAEP), the gestation period for mares is about 11 months. During that period of time, you just have to sit and wait. But once it’s time for the mare to give birth, caretakers have to make a couple of preparations. TheĀ AAEPĀ advises that caretakers ought to be present during the birth ā€” also known as “foaling.” However, they also note that you most likely just have to sit quietly and watch, given that horse births are fairly uncomplicated affairs.

The few preparations that are important include making sure the mare has a comfortable, safe, and clean place to give birth and ensuring that the baby is adequately fed. Interestingly, letting the horse give birth in open pasture is also an option because “an open grassy area is likely to be cleaner than a stall and provides a healthy environment with adequate room to foal.”

Another important aspect of foaling to keep in mind is that the offspring need to receive what’s called “colostrum.” According to theĀ AAEP, “colostrum” is the mother’s antibody-rich milk. What’s fascinating about colostrum is that it provides the foal with “passive immunity” during the first phase of its life. Therefore, colostrum is essential to the foal’s good health ā€” at least until the baby’s immune system is strong enough to fend for itself. In cases where the foal is too weak to nurse or the mother isn’t able to give the baby milk, caretakers may have to milk the mare themselves in order to provide the colostrum within the first eight to 12 hours of the baby’s life.

Jenni, it seems, is aware of how important this step is. In the below video’s description, sheĀ writes, “I bottle fed [the baby] colostrum from Daisy every two hours in a bottle for the first day and supplemented her milk intake with a bottle until she wouldn’t suckle from the bottle anymore and we could see she was drinking from mom well enough.”

Luckily, as one viewer commented, it seems that the horse twins are in good hands with Jenni and Guy.

“That was lovely,” the viewerĀ wrote. “The mare must have really trusted the guy to let him touch her tiny foal like that. Shows what a trusting mare she is and what a good relationship she must have at the stables to know that they are there to help.”

Guy Asks If Heā€™s Wrong For Refusing To Adopt Wifeā€™s Son, Leaves Her After He Is Criticized

One man took to Reddit in 2020 to ask users if he was in the wrong for refusing to adopt his wife’s son. The man shared that he is unwilling to step in as the boy’s father because he was conceived while his wife was unfaithful. The man added that he knows the boy can’t be his due to a horseback riding accident when he was a teen that left him infertile.

After his wife admitted to getting drunk and cheating on him, the man said they were almost divorced. However, they went to couples therapy and decided that the husband would be considered an uncle to his wife’s son. They would play video games together, but the man did not take any responsibility as his dad. This arrangement continued for five years until the wife decided she wanted her husband to adopt her son and start being a father to him.

This upset the man, especially because the wife encouraged her five-year-old to start calling him “Dad” against his wishes. He also said that the situation is confusing and likely hurtful for the young boy. When the husband told his wife that he would still not adopt her son, she was angry, and the man was left wondering if he was a bad person for his decision.

After posting his story, the man received tons of feedback on Reddit. The majority of people agreed that everyone in the situation was in the wrong. Read on to hear what the man decided to do after hearing the commenters’ criticism.

After explaining in his post that his wife got pregnant by another man,Ā the husband wrote:

“So, she had her son. We talked a lot about it, and I made it clear that I’m ok taking on a step-parent role, but I wasn’t willing to fully be his dad. I wouldn’t adopt him, but I would help raise him and get him off to college.”

He continued, “My wife agreed to this, became a stay-at-home mom so she could take care of him with help from her parents, and I’ve pretty much been the fun uncle-like guy. I play with him, buy him games, try my best to not resent him, and mostly just stay out of the way of my wife’s parenting.”

The man didn’t want to have to take responsibility for the boy should anything ever happen to his wife. He explained, “I made it clear that if anything happened, he would go live with her parents, and I’d send child support. If they couldn’t take him, I wouldn’t put him in foster care or anything, but I also wasn’t willing to take on the responsibility of being his father when I’m not. I’m happy being an Uncle to another man’s kid since that’s what life threw at me.”

For five years they lived with the boy thinking of the husband as his uncle until the wife decided to go back on their agreement. The man refused to comply. “This has greatly upset her, and she’s trying to find a way to force me into adopting him. She’s even been manipulating the poor kid, saying he should start calling me dad instead of uncle like he has his entire life, which is upsetting and confusing the poor boy,” he shared.

Other Reddit users decided that everyone involved was in the wrong, except the child. “Everything about this is pretty terrible. Her cheating. You purposely distancing yourself from the child, who is not yours through no fault of his own, not to mention you being the only father figure he’s ever known. Dad’s don’t need to be blood,”Ā wrote one commenter.

Another person agreed, adding, “If (original poster) couldn’t grow past his resentment of the kid not being his, then he never should have agreed to stay in the relationship. It’s not fair to the child. Either he needs to be all in, or out.”

After reading the feedback from people outside of the situation, the man decided that he could no longer stay in his marriage. “I told my wife I was leaving and pursuing that divorce. I think I’ve been ready to do so for a while but just needed the push. This has led to a complete meltdown, but I stayed firm, packed everything up, and moved in with my brother across town,” he added in anĀ update to his post.

He continued: “Talking to my lawyer, it was verified that, due to the process I went through after the birth to establish I wasn’t the father, I would not have to pay child support or alimony, which is something very rare and uncommon anyway where I live. He’s already working on the paperwork. No idea when it’ll all happen, but once it does I’ll cut full contact.” The man ended his update by adding that his wife tried to contact him but he has refused to speak with her.

What do you think about this situation? Was the man wrong for refusing to adopt his wife’s son? Let us know your opinion, and be sure to send this on to your loved ones.Ā
