Some arrangements will leave you confused and mind-boggled.

While families are complicated, some people make them worse, and cheating is the fastest way to accomplish that.

And having a kid with your affair partner? Woof.

See how this woman’s husband wouldn’t take no for an answer when it came to the kid that wasn’t theirs.

AITAH For telling my husband that his affair child is not welcome in our home and if he wants custody he will have to move out?

My husband and I have been married for 9 years.

In 2021, we found out my husband was being sued for child support.

Turns out my husband had an affair shortly after we were married.

It nearly ended our marriage, but we went to counseling together and I agreed to stay in the marriage with the following provisions:

She had her conditions!

My husband was to get a second job so that his child support payments did not affect our household budget and that at no point in time would I ever consider having a relationship with this child.

If he wanted to pursue one with them, fine. But I have absolutely zero interest in this kid.

They’ve been having issues with the kid…

So my husband has been getting to know his kid over the past couple years and recently my husband came to me and informed me that there was some sort of baby mamma drama.

Apparently, she has to self-surrender in May and is going to be incarcerated for 8 months.

They had to keep the kid themselves.

My husband told me that he needed to take custody while his affair partner is locked up, otherwise the kid would have to go to their grandparents who basically live on the opposite coast from us.

Their kid doesn’t want to have to change schools or be so far away from their friends, dad, and mom (she will be doing her time fairly local to us).

She did what she thought best.

So, after my husband told me that, I got up and left the house.

I went to the grocery store on the corner and grabbed a copy of our area’s apartment guide went back home and handed it to him.

He asked if I were serious. I told him I still felt the same way as I did 3 years ago. He said he didn’t think that was fair considering the extenuating circumstances.

She is not going to budge!

I told him I don’t care about the circumstances.

His kid is not welcome in my home, if he wanted to take custody I will grant him an amicable divorce, but I am not changing my mind.

I am not taking care of some other chick’s kid.’

He can just take his son to another place nearby!

Let’s see what folks on Reddit think about this situation.
