The Internet Is In Flames Over This Note A Husband Left His Family Before Going On A Work Trip

“Your kids are two and four months…this isn’t a note to your wife. It’s a reminder that your focus is on them, and she needs to keep doing what she’s already doing while you’re gone and she’s doing it solo,” added u/Appropriate_Age_627.

“You addressed your children and how much you love them, and something you want them to work on while you are gone, but nothing for your wife other than how well she takes care of the children. She’s not a thought in this note. I would be annoyed as well if my husband said that this was a note for me when there’s nothing for me in it.”

“IDK. Leaving a note to a 2-year-old and a 4-month-old is cute, but they also can’t read or really comprehend it. So I can see how your wife would feel like an afterthought there. Anger is a secondary emotion, so she’s probably not actually mad but instead sad and or feeling lonely in her role as ‘mommy.’ Try to meet her where she is, even if you don’t understand, because that’s your teammate (not these people on Reddit). Maybe next time you write a note like this, add a little extra part for your wife, not just the mother of your children. It’s still a cute note tho!!!”
