Hivemind goes crazy. You fabricated that in the same way I did. There's no telling what the wife reaction would be, so you can infer anything from the tweet.

Nobody is denying this: him attempting to shirk his familial responsibility after being asked

The point you are arguing is that his wife would leave him from things like this, which is assuming that his wife would object to his "familial responsibility avoidance", which is the same as assuming she would not object to it. You are inventing the wife having a negative reaction, I am saying the wife could have a positive reaction.

Also, you invented something first, pot calling the kettle black.

He may have chosen a different trajectory from hers

That makes at least three of us in this thread!
