TikTok user shares video of ‘Abusive’ husband

TikTok video sparks debate over postpartum expectations as woman takes husband to social media court of opinion.

In a viral TikTok video that has ignited a heated discussion online, a new mother can be seen pushing back against her partner’s expectations of her just two days after giving birth.

The video, shared by the user @NewMomPushesBack, captures a candid moment between the couple as they navigate the challenges of parenthood. In the video, the man can be heard complaining about the woman “doing nothing” while he takes on household responsibilities.

However, the situation escalates when the man insists that the woman should cook a roast for his parents, who are expected to visit soon after the birth of their child. Despite the woman’s protests and reminder that she needs rest after being discharged from the hospital, the man persists, suggesting that she should cook because she does it better than him and his parents would appreciate it.

In a firm response, the woman asserts that she cannot be expected to cook so soon after giving birth and highlights that she cooked throughout her entire pregnancy.
