Dad Kicks Son Out of Home after Latter Lied about His Pregnant Wife's 'Hormones' - Mom Takes Son's Side

• A dad took in his son after learning his wife had a difficult pregnancy due to her fluctuating hormones and placenta previa.
• The dad and his wife wanted their son to work it out with their daughter-in-law, so they gave it time and reached out.
• They learned that the real reason why their son had to live with them was because he cheated on his pregnant wife and had nowhere to go.

A man on Reddit revealed the sticky situation he found himself in because of what his grown son did to his daughter-in-law. He and his wife were ecstatic to discover they would be first-time grandparents. Their daughter-in-law, however, had a difficult pregnancy and suffered from placenta previa, which could turn life-threatening.

Her doctor ordered her to be on bed rest to avoid complications, and sex was off the table. One day, the son showed up at his parents' home saying he'd stay there for a while because his wife was going through "crazy pregnancy hormones."

Each time he tried to call his wife, they'd fight. The parents told their son to give it a few days before reaching out to see if she'd calmed down by then.

The truth was, because she couldn't have sex and was on bed rest, their son decided to go out and cheat.

They Were Led to Believe Something Different

Throughout this time, the woman had her mom at home with her, so they didn't worry about her welfare. They knew she was well cared for and didn't need any assistance.

One day, however, the man's mom decided to check in on her daughter-in-law. It was then that we discovered the truth.

The daughter-in-law wasn't going through "crazy pregnancy hormones," as their son claimed. The truth was, because she couldn't have sex and was on bed rest, their son decided to go out and cheat.

The dad was upset at his son. When he got home from work that day, he kicked him out of the house and said he needed to find someplace to go. The furious dad added:

"He wasn't someone I wanted to associate with at the moment, and it would be best if he wasn't near me."

The Dad Kicked His Grown Son Out of the House

While all this was happening, the man's mom tried convincing her husband to let their son back in. She claimed he was too hard on him and that the dad should give their son a chance to work things out with his wife.

The dad stood firm in his decision despite his wife's insistence. He couldn't stand his son's audacity or even bear to look at him. He thought what his son did was absolutely stupid.

The dad admitted that he and his wife were still arguing over what happened. However, regardless of what she thinks, he's unwilling to give in and take their son back in.

People on the internet couldn't help but commend the dad for his integrity. While dads are often expected to stand by their sons during trials like this one, this particular dad leaned on his moral compass.

Others slammed the mom for enabling her son's cheating ways. Some expected more from a mother, especially because she knew what her daughter-in-law was going through.

"I can't believe OP's wife is saying he's being too hard on his son…like his son isn't being too hard on HIS wife (who is currently pregnant, mind you) by CHEATING. The selective outrage is astounding," one said.

"NTA - never TA for such integrity. Your son most definitely is and (I suspect) his enabling mommy is as well. Kudos to you for doing the right thing," another echoed.

"The son's behavior has been absolutely foul, and OP is NTA for booting him out of his house," a user wrote.

Do you think the dad did the right thing by kicking his son out of the house? What would you have done if you were in his situation?

In a similar story, a woman's fiancé cheated on her while she was pregnant. Five years later, after cutting him out of his life, she heard him cry over the phone.
