Viral Video: One of a couple’s most significant life events is the birth of a child, and having a supportive spouse may make all the difference. However, a video that went viral and showed a guy utterly neglecting his laboring wife has infuriated the internet. He was absorbed in playing Xbox—right in the hospital room—instead of consoling her or holding her hand.
The video, which went viral on social media, showed the expectant mother lying in bed getting ready to give birth as her husband sat next to her, absorbed in his game. Even worse, he allegedly encouraged a buddy to join in, seeming more like he was having a casual game night than he was really being there for his child’s birth.
Viewers were not pleased with this behavior. He was criticized by many for his insensitivity, and some even suggested that the wife should divorce him. There was a lot of criticism, with many wondering how someone could put a video game ahead of something that may change someone’s life.
‘Isaac Bradshaw’ was the Instagram username that first posted the popular video. With 5.2 million views since it was released, it has received a ton of attention. Many social media users expressed astonishment, outrage, and bewilderment over the man’s acts, and their emotions were poured into the comment area.
As one individual put it clearly, “LEAVE THAT MAN AND FIND A NEW ONE.” Another user commented, “The way I would’ve thrown them both out of that room so fast.” “Send him back to his mother,” said a third commenter, criticizing the man’s priorities. A man of shame. Everything has its time, and at the moment, his wife and infant should be his whole world. “I don’t know how people be doing shit like this,” said another person, expressing amazement. Extremely awkward. Another reader summed up their feelings with the words, “You picked the wrong baby daddy, girl.”
