Steve, thrice-divorced, often teased his fourth wife Margaret during her maternity leave. He and his mom Alice constantly demanded more household chores from her, ignoring her struggles with their newborn baby. They belittled her, calling her lazy and overweight.

Margaret endured their insults until she unexpectedly met Steve’s ex-wives, who shared their own tales of mistreatment. Empowered, Margaret returned home with a newfound resolve.

One day, Steve took Margaret and their child to the park, where they encountered Steve’s exes. Embarrassed, Steve revealed his history of failed marriages due to his and Alice’s behavior. Margaret reached out to the ex-wives and learned they had formed a support group.

After gathering courage from them, Margaret decided to confront Steve and Alice. When they again insulted her for not cooking, Margaret finally stood up for herself, declaring her intent to divorce Steve if he didn’t change.

Shocked by Margaret’s firmness, Steve and Alice realized their mistake. They couldn’t repair the damage, and Margaret moved out, forging a new life with her son. Steve, regretful and unable to find another partner, watched his children grow from afar, learning a hard lesson about family and respect.

Despite the divorce, Margaret found strength in her new friendships and a renewed sense of independence, leaving behind a toxic cycle of disrespect and finding support from unexpected allies.
