A leading divorce lawyer from the US has revealed the ‘major theme’ behind most failed marriages and relationships of couples who become working parents.
Dennis R Vetrano, Jr is a New York-based family lawyer specializing in divorce cases and regularly shares new divorce trends on his TikTok account, where over 390K people are following him.
In one of his recent videos, Dennis explained a major theme behind most couples’ failed relationships that leads to divorce.
In the now-viral video, Dennis explained how women are ‘doing it all’ in relationships where both men and women are working and under the pressure of taking care of their kids and performing day-to-day life activities and chores.
“Do you want to know the major theme that I’m seeing in the divorce industry, as a divorce lawyer, as I do consults these days?” he asked in the video.“I am seeing working mums doing it all, and I am seeing the husbands step back and say, ‘Huh, I don’t gotta do a thing!” he continued.
“She’s got the kids, she’s got the groceries, she’s got the laundry, she’s got the meals, she’s got the work, and by the way, she’s making all the money and she’s paying for the house and doing everything else. I’m going to go to the firehouse, I’m going to go play this, I’m going to go hang out with my friends.’”
According to Vetrano Jr, that’s why women want to leave relationships where they are always expected to do everything besides working long shifts.
“That’s the theme. And women are tired.”
Over 5 million people on TikTok have viewed the lawyer’s video, which has even been shared on other social media platforms. In the comment section, many divorced women showed up and agreed to Dennis’s take and explained their reasons for leaving their partners.
“WAY less stressed since divorce. And I get nights to myself!!!” one women wrote.
“This is why I’m having a hard time figuring out why modern day marriage is worth my time,” a second said.
“We get sick of the mental load. Having to give instructions on evetything. It’s exhausting,” a third added.
“My ex had the shock of his life after separation. He actually told me he underestimated how hard house work and child rearing is,” a fourth commented.
“Asked my husband to remake the bed when he gets up he came down to ask where the bedding was kept, same place its been for 4 years,” one annoyed wife wrote.
“men making us single working moms during the marriage, night as well be legally single, been doing by ourselves…single!” someone said.
“Genuinely knew that divorce was imminent when my ex cleaned the kitchen by himself without me begging him to. It was the first time in five years,” another divorced woman shared her story.
“the theme is that he shows her that she doesn’t need him because he adds no value,” another TikTok user commented.
