A divorced father’s gesture to provide food for his struggling ex-wife turned sour when she rejected his offer, demanding cash instead. Despite his well-stocked freezer and pantry, she accused him of neglecting their kids’ needs and trying to manipulate her into a “housewife” role. Standing firm, the father refused to give cash but offered ample groceries. Online responses mostly sided with him, criticizing her insistence on money over food aid. Some likened his approach to helping to buying food for panhandlers rather than giving cash. Overall, the father’s attempt at generosity sparked a debate about parental responsibilities and financial assistance in co-parenting situations.
