Right who needs a father figure when you have cash....



Please make your substantive points without snark. This is in the site guidelines: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html.


We don't live in an ideal world. That doesn't mean it's not worth living in.

The man didn't hang himself, he got a case of severe bad luck. I'm sure he'd be here doing the father figure stuff if he could, but if he can't, that doesn't mean the kid shouldn't have been created, and really, that's their family's own personal decision to make.

Ultimately, he did a good job for his family and the kid will be fine.

People shitting on him on the day he died for choosing to have a kid that he leaves very well taken care of just seems wrong in several different ways.

I mean, we could all be at work trying to provide for our theoretical kids right now and we're sitting here saying dumb shit on the internet instead.
