After Years of Her Husband Refusing to Have Kids, a Woman Takes Matters into Her Own Hands This Halloween — Story of the Day

Megan had always dreamed of being a mother, but her husband, Ross, refused to have children. Every Halloween, her longing grew stronger as she watched families enjoying the holiday. One evening, while shopping, she lingered by the kids’ section, imagining the joy of raising a child. Ross’s harsh refusal to discuss it made her heart ache, but she kept quiet.

Later, while walking through the neighborhood, Megan noticed a young boy named Rick standing alone. His homemade cardboard “transformer” costume was mocked by other children, but he stood resilient. Megan approached him and offered encouragement. “You look great! Who helped you make it?”

Rick’s soft response—“I don’t have a mom or dad”—shocked Megan. Her heart broke for the lonely boy. She decided to take him home to fix his costume. At her house, Ross angrily confronted her, demanding she send Rick away. “I don’t want any part of this!” he yelled. Megan, though shaken, stood firm.

“I won’t choose you over helping a child who needs love,” she said, looking down at Rick.

Ignoring Ross’s desperate pleas, Megan left with Rick, taking him to buy a new costume and ensuring he’d be cared for. As they walked through the store, Rick’s face lit up with joy. Megan made a call to social services, but deep down, she knew she would offer Rick a home if he needed one. For the first time, Megan felt free—strong, purposeful, and ready to embrace the life she’d always wanted.
