why do men leave their wives right after she has a baby?

so this is a pretty horrific story.

What makes men leave their wives right after a baby? Seems like the relationship is something you should figure out before you get someone pregnant.

Another complicating factor is that the author mentions that they were in a poly relationship. Wondering how this plays a role. Most of the poly people I have known are also childfree, or became poly after their children were more grown.

I’ve never actually met anyone who was openly poly. I’m not sure how it works in a situation like this.

Anyway, thanks for the link. I filled out the interest form🤞

I've met several. The more stories I hear, the more skeptical I become of arrangements like this, even though my own ancestry includes some polygamous relationships, that were --by most accounts --successful.
