AITA for wanting to leave my husband after he blamed me for our baby’s death and started treating me like an animal?
Two years ago, a mother’s world shattered when she lost her precious 8-month-old son to pneumonia.
Despite her unwavering devotion and tireless efforts to save him, the cruel grip of loss swallowed her joy, leaving behind a haunting blend of grief and guilt.
Yet, in the depths of her sorrow, the man she once trusted has twisted their shared pain into a weapon, casting blame upon her wounded heart. What was meant to be a sanctuary of mourning has become a battleground of cold cruelty and betrayal.
Her husband’s icy disdain and relentless accusations have stripped away her dignity, while his in***elity cuts deeper than any words.
In the midst of her silent suffering, she faces a devastating betrayal—watching him find happiness with another, a stark reminder of how fragile love can become in the wake of unimaginable loss.

The original poster (OP) is trapped between immense personal grief over the loss of her son and ongoing emotional and verbal a**se from her husband, compounded by his in***elity.
Her desire to leave is a reaction to severe mistreatment, yet she is conflicted by the fear of being judged by her husband and his family as abandoning him during his grief.
