Her Son Left His Teddy Bear At Her Ex’s House, So She Showed Up To Get It And Found Her Ex Throwing A Party
If you have a little one, then you probably know just how much a stuffed animal can mean to children. A plush toy can remind your kiddo of a special person, a happy memory, or just provide a familiar sense of comfort.
And for this woman’s son, his teddy bear does the exact same thing. In fact, her son carries his teddy bear absolutely everywhere and cannot fall asleep without it.
So, when her son accidentally left his teddy at his father’s house, you can only imagine the mayhem that ensued.
“My son was inconsolable. It took me around three hours to get him to sleep,” she recalled.
Then, even after her son eventually just passed out from exhaustion, that was not the end. Instead, he actually woke up at about 1:00 a.m., realized his teddy was still not there and began hysterically crying all over again.
So, at that point, she was understandably pretty desperate. She had tried calling and texting her son’s father– who is her ex– numerous times throughout the night. She had hoped that her ex would answer and possibly be able to bring the teddy bear to her house.
Regardless, though, her ex never picked up the phone. And once she realized that calming her son down without the teddy bear was going to be next to impossible, she decided to just drive to her ex’s house and pick up the toy herself.
After she showed up at her ex’s house with her son, though, she discovered something pretty frustrating. Apparently, her ex had been hosting a party while she was at home trying to call him for hours on end.
Plus, her ex seemed pretty clueless about the situation even after she explained it.

“He told me I should have called him and that he would have brought the teddy bear to us. That really pissed me off because I had,” she said.
Anyway, she eventually got the teddy bear from her ex, and her son calmed down– thankfully. Still, that was not the end of her whirlwind of a night– because afterward, her ex apparently suggested that she and her son stay at his house that night.
In fact, he claimed that he did not trust her to drive home and said she looked half-asleep– which only made her more ticked off.
So, she ended up getting into a heated argument with her ex and made a rather harsh jab. More specifically, she told her ex that maybe he should have answered his phone instead of getting drunk with his friends if he really cared about their son’s well-being. Yikes.
Anyway, ever since then, she has been feeling pretty conflicted about the situation and is not sure if going to her ex’s house was the wrong thing to do that night.
Do you think it was wrong of her to show up at her ex’s house unannounced or not? Was her ex being condescending or just trying to look out for her and their son? What would you have done if you had been in her shoes?
