Giving birth is a painful process physically and emotionally. The OP is this tale has no regard for his wife's wishes to have a C-Section done in a private hospital for her comfort. He doesn't want to take from his other child's college fund - fine, fair. But there are other ways to save money, dude. His wife threatens that if he doesn't help pay for the C-Section than she was going to put her maiden name on their newborn's birth certificate. She honored her part of the deal and hubby is pissed. Who is really the petty parent in the wrong? Only you and the moral judges of Reddit can decide.

All family members and friends had their kids there. She disagreed and criticized the poor service local hospitals have and insisted that

    Font - this was a big deal since it concerned both her and our son's health. I tried assuring her saying she will be fine but she argued that I have no idea what it's like and told me if I refuse to put money towards the cse then I shouldn't be surprised when she put her maiden name on our son's bc instead of my family's

    Font - name. I refused as I saw no need to waste money on private hospital when we had free service and care available. She stopped bringing it up and days later she had a scheduled cs at a the local hospital and I wasn't allowed to be at the hospital and I respected her wish.

    Font - I only saw my son when she came home and I was shocked to learn she went ahead and put her maiden name on the BC.

    Font - her petty and vengeful for doing this purely to punish me solely for the fact that I was unable to afford a private hospital. Her family watched and she told me to step out of the room but I said we weren't finished talking. She started crying and her mom got involved and told me to step out because I was stressing her

    Font - daughter out. I had an argument with her too and asked if she approves of any part of her daughter's behavior and she just shook her head telling me to calm down and give her some time to rest.

    Font - KingJacoPax · 7d · edited 7d 9 3 Partassipant [1] NTA That money is for a college fund and is earmarked as such. Should have been the end of the discussion.

    Font - ÝTA imo. OP, doesn't have to give birth. It's funny the kid needs to be named after the father even though the mother does the hard work of growing and expelling the baby very painfully. OP is definite TA. 3.1k J Reply
