Social media reactions

@Deyimika commented: “Nothing justifies leaving a three months old baby behind, that tells you everything you need to know about that kind of woman/mother.”

@Flore_alphonsus commented: “She might be facing postpartum and needed encouragement but instead you chose to have misunderstanding with her. Good luck on your single daddy work .”

@IEna commented: “Get a reputable contractual in-dwelling nanny to look after the baby. You will be fine, time heals most wounds.”

@mr_chibol commented: “No woman ditches a 3-month-old over a ‘little misunderstanding’ unless you’ve been slacking hard. This is YOUR kid too — feed her, change her, stop crying for sympathy.”
