He added that at the moment, his sister was his top focus. That was the last conversation the OP and his wife had. He also said: “I have been living with my sister for 1 week now.
Being a single father-ish brother is definitely challenging, but I am really enjoying it.”
If any of the thread’s readers were parents, they would do well to have a will in place designating a guardian for their children in the event of their untimely passing. According to another person’s account, their half-sister took them back to their childhood home after their parents died, but it was obvious that they weren’t wanted there. At the age of 15, the person ran away, but neither their half-sister nor her spouse paid any attention to their disappearance.
This user thinks that the OP and his wife should have divorced because his sister would have noticed any hostility against her if she had stayed in the household. Another person who does not have children said that it would have been a deal breaker for them as well. Some people backed the OP’s wife, saying she knew her limits and couldn’t handle caring for a child going through such extreme trauma.
Someone else chimed in and said that the OP’s wife would be forced into the position of mother if she helped raise his sister even if she didn’t want to. Another poster said that they would normally side with the wife, but in this case they couldn’t since they felt the wife had been unfair to the OP and his sister by making the accusation that he preferred her to her.
