Wedding Woes

hide or not to hide

Dear Prudence,

I just learned that my slimeball brother-in-law has three different women pregnant at once. Even worse, my husband agreed to let him crash with us for a while so he can lay low so the women can’t track him down for paternity tests—without consulting me! Given my husband’s disregard for my input and my disgust at his brother’s behavior, I plan on cluing the women in on the asshole’s whereabouts.
I’m right to do that, aren’t I?

  • Another vote for divorce. If your husband thinks this is ok, slimeball runs in the family. 

    Yeah, clue them in, but to the address where H and his bro go after you kick them out. 
  • I’d ask him why his thinks this is okay and he’s willing to be a collaborator in his brother literally hiding from and abandoning his children.

    This is so close to the OTHER bro who has 2 women pregnant. 
    Your H can’t think supporting this is a good idea. I’m not sure divorce is the answer but a good conversation on morals and where LW’s hubby’s lie should take place.

    I would throw them both out and call the women.  Then husband and I would have a very long conversation and he'd either come around to my way or I'd divorce him.  They are both trash men, but if LW wants to try to salvage her husband, there's be a lot of discussion and expectations/boundaries clearly laid out.

    All of this.  It's one thing to offer a couch but to hide out and avoid responsibility?? No thanks.
