A father on Reddit asked if he was an a**hole for not wanting to “babysit” while his wife is on vacation — and YES he is.

“You want your wife to travel alone with a 4 year old child and parent alone for her entire visit with your family that she clearly doesn’t see often because you don’t want to baby sit your own child,” writes the very observant reader.And wait — there’s more. He’s also asking his wife to travel solo internationally with their kid during a global pandemic.

“Let’s not forget that international travel with a 4-year-old is hard enough — but we’re still in a pandemic. So now she’s got to make sure her kid is masked the whole time and keep sanitizing her hands,” writes one Reddit user. At 4, the kid isn’t yet vaccinated, which could put herself and her great grandmother in danger — not to mention any number of international travel rules they might have to follow.Although we also just appreciate the posts that are word-by-word total takedowns of the guy.

Okay, so to summarize, there are a couple of lessons here: ask your wife about her thoughts and feelings before buying international plane tickets. And if you give a gift to someone, make sure that it’s a real actual gift and not a backhanded way to get your spouse to continue to do all the childcare while you have a bachelor’s staycation.

First issue…. “Babysit”.

I told my husband about this, and the first thing he said was 'That's not babysitting. That's his job as a parent.' I'm so happy my husband doesn't think the way that a**hole does.

My grandmother loves to compliment my husband when I have a night out and he 'babysits'. It makes both of us mad. He corrects her that he is taking care if his child, not baby sitting. He's just as capable and responsible for her as I, as a SAHM, am
