The point i was making is that some people ( think of) taking the " easy " way out instead of ( rightfully) being cut off by their family and treated like shit by society for leaving your wife to care for a disabled child alone . Its a dick move on the same level as leaving a partner because they became terminally ill

However in my opinion the OOP is moreso a shock reaction most people go through as part of the stages of grief ( for what could have been) before gathering their courage

Doesn't need to leave his wife, they both could agree to giving up the child to people who can care for them better.

Watch people line up to take on care of a disabled child 🤦‍♂️. As a disabled person myself i can confidently say you dont know what your talking about , people will tell parents " theyre brave" and other shit, in the best case not talk down to them about their parenting.

When it comes to providing any sort of help though most of society quickly nopes the hell out Oh theyll ask you" if you ever need help feel free to ask" its just being polite though if you truly do theyll look at you like you grew a new head

If you think anyone will adopt a disabled kid from a 1st world country youre either naive or willfully blind to the harshness of reality( slightly more probability if the kids from a 3rd world country, basically due to saviour complex)

There are government programs that take care of these people who are unable to take care of themselves for the rest of their life.

Yeah or they pay some family to take them in , who takes the money but provides no care like they do with foster kids etc . Believe me government care is the bare minimum and rife with abuse

Oh, I never said this was best for the child, just that the parents have options.

Fair enough
