One night, I rushed from the shower to find my 3-year-old son crying, covered in red paint, while my wife sat glued to her iPad. Frustrated, I soon realized something deeper was wrong.<\/p>\n
That night, thinking my son was asleep, I took a shower. His cries grew desperate, and I rushed out, only to see my wife still focused on her screen. In his room, I found him sobbing, soaked in paint and urine. He said, “Mommy didn’t check on me.”<\/p>\n
Angry, I confronted her, but she barely reacted. The next morning, I took our son to my sister\u2019s house. Desperate for answers, I called my mother-in-law. She later told me, “It’s depression.” My wife felt trapped, losing herself to motherhood.<\/p>\n
