Young top tier engineering graduate was snapped up by Telstra for top network engineering job. Also makes money playing stupid fortnite. Telstra suspended him from work.
This is a high IQ employed guy working his ass off to provide for his wife & kids in a high stress environment. Wonder what the wife brings to the relationship beside the obvious torment and abuse.
Hope he never assaults another women again ever but he needs to get out of that toxic mess of a relationship.
I've watched the video on Youtube. It's less than five minutes and from that I can't see how you can accurately determine what the relationships between the husband, wife and children are.
This is what I gathered from the video:
- The wife is frustrated that her husband is playing Fortnite for an indistinguishable amount of time (she claims hours about halfway in the video).
- She's mentions that dinner has been ready for over an hour. You can hear a child in the background.
- She starts throwing objects at him. He throws objects back at her and hits her on the face. She says that she is pregnant.
- He returns to his game. She wants an apology for being hit. She becomes more angry and wants her husband to stop playing Fortnite altogether.
- Frustrated, he goes off screen to confront his wife again. Going by the screaming of the children and the wife, he appears to be being more physically abusive towards his wife.
From the video alone, I can't see how you can assume that she torments and abuses her husband on a regular basis. Nor can I see how you can side with the husband. Even if you assume that she is a homemaker and they are in a mutual agreement where she does all of the chores while he's allowed to do want he wants when he is at home, he should at least show her some respect and eat the meal that she has made for him and the family. From that alone, I can see why she get angry. If he's spending nearly all of his free time at home playing Fortnite, why did he have a wife and family in the first place? I'm not saying as a working husband that you shouldn't have some free time to yourself, but once you have children you should be sharing some degree of responsibility in taking care of them, regardless of how intelligent you are and how brilliant you are at your work. Personally, I don't like coming home and kicking back my feet knowing that my wife needs help with the kids and/or household duties, particularly when she is impeded by a permanent medical condition. Any sympathy I had towards him was lost once he became more physically abusive towards his wife in front of his children, particularly that his anger was a result of not being allowed to play a computer game.
While I did play computer games in the past, these days I think that they are mostly pointless as a form of entertainment, especially if all your free time is consumed by them. I think that they are detrimental to your health in the long term, particular if they are your main form of entertainment and you're socially awkward and/or have never engaged in a physical relationship. If it is what you want to do with all of your free time that's your business. But if that's all you want to do with your life, please stick a condom on your c#$k every time you f#$k your partner or wife, children shouldn't have zombies for dads.
