Once a teacher told me that freedom for a woman means being able to provide alone for her children and I never understood why, now I know.
What utter nonsense. Misandrists everywhere.

Yeahhh all the bros and chads out there complaining that there are too many single mums out there don't realise how common this is...
As common as women leaving their families and marriages but getting custody so they can get child support/government assistance?
How is she leaving her family if she has custody? She’s just leaving the man. Also wild to assume she gets custody just for government money and not because she idk loves her kids or something 😂
@@beanboy5963 wild,not incorrect.
@@IkesPimpHand Let the pain goz brother. She's gone. She can't hurt you anymore
@overlordfemto7523 sure blame the victim. They had planned a family life, they got married, then he just up and leaves, but it's all her fault? You sound ridiculous. Typical incel blaming women for everything under the sun. What's next? Women are responsible when men cheat on them?
He met her with 2 kids and left her with 4. A real life “double it and give it to the next person” moment 💀
Very astute
Both those first 2 kids are from different fathers.
@@WithoutRemorse12 what’s your point
@@vrroomm Both those fathers are not involved in their child's lives. This guy was about to adopt them. So there is more to this story.
@@WithoutRemorse12 he should've thought long and hard about that before impregnating her as well.
I know men leave, but he left her while she was pregnant. They had a whole life together not a one night stand. That's so cruel and sad.
lol I’d tell you what my kids dad did (it was much worse imo but I’m biased) but I’m not gonna trauma dump on the internet 😂😂
@@nattylite9220Prayers for you.🙏🏾❤️
It’s common
It’s why the childfree women movement is growing.
it's common
The fact of the matter is that its a LOT easier for a man to abandon his family than for a woman. And yet ive seen so mant stories like this where the dad just decides "hey i dont like this" and dips. The woman has no say in the matter. You knocked her up, bro. It takes two to tango. Why is she the only one who has to take responsibility?
I think I have only really heard of this happening with a woman I knew once or twice. And when it did, the dad also dipped and the grandparents had to take the kids. But it happens so often with men. They just one day decide that being a parent isn't fun anymorw
my dad did that to his previous marriage before my mom :\ and his dad abandoned his family too, they thought he died.
this is why things like condoms and male birth control pills exist
@@rosesweetcharlotte that’s more often the case w/ men from low income neighborhoods that ones from working middle class to rich neighborhoods, but ofc there’s outliers
@@weewooweewoo906 I’m sorry to hear that
Some random guy: *ghosts his family*
The entire internet: I have a very special set of skills...
If the law doesn't want to do the job, somebody else will.
"If women don't wanna get pregnant they should keep their legs shut" if men don't wanna be dads/pay child support they should keep their legs closed. Just sayin'.
Right, keep them pants up and zipped closed.👍🏾
@@CamarasOpinionyou holes really don’t realize how privileged you are
Well I mean if they dip obviously they didn’t know them well enough to have a kid with them goes both ways for guys and women
What has this got to do with her husband of many years abandoning her and their children? This wasnt a random hook up or unwanted pregnancy this was her husband, I highly doubt she would have married him if she thought for one second that he would ghost her and their children. So telling her to keep her legs closed to her husband is abit ridiculous and redundant
@@jaciriley123 Exactly
men abandoning their families is one of the most consistently common things literally ever lol.
Since the beginning of human existence....
No actually thats a myth! It wasnt a natural thing that just naturally happened. Many ancient civs condemned that kind of cowardly dishonorable behavior. @pearlangeline
Then single mums get attacked for it, the men just walk away, while they’re visibly pregnant…we all know how it goes
@@lilacscentedfushias1852 Because men will always sympathize with the lowest quality of man before they ever sympathize with a woman......
And men like that just loooove the internet until it whips back to bite them. 🥳
No guys this story gets so much worse! This guy is a con man that also skipped out on his employees and investors he never payed back! I think they’re actively trying to find him to sue
There are so many men who did what that dude did. Not even mildly surprising to hear of a man abandoning his wife and children, leaving her with all the responsibility whilst he does single life 2.0. Feel nothing but contempt towards men like him. This bs is mostly always put on women.
it’s really sad too especially since people will also blame the woman without realizing it’s not always easy to tell when someone’s a bad person; many people don’t show their true colors immediately.
4B movement doesn’t grow for no reason
huh?? this is extremely common i feel like 75% of people don’t have fathers because of this reason….my dad left my mom when she was pregnant and when i was a baby he told her “i’m over it why aren’t you”
Yeah my dad had an affair and left his wife and his 9 year old and 5 year old daughters who loved him
@@feltfrog
@@Lure420 right?? i just hope next generation of married couples will be better at communicating their needs and feelings more
You can feel that way if you want, but it’s actually nowhere close to 75%. Most guys will live up to the responsibility. These stories are horrible, but don’t let it taint your view of men as a whole.
🙄@@wesleytwiggs7687
I wish we could just make the same for missing people, like the really missing people. The only scary part about this is having proof of how incredibly effective and unstoppable the internet community can be in tracking a person down, yet how horrendous groups of people still manage to fly under the internet's radar.
I get what you are saying and I do agree, but people who have been abducted, beaten, are inebriated or were drugged or somehow restricted in how they can communicate and seek help for themselves also cannot be found as easy. Because they usually didn’t disappear with the intention to disappear, someone else made them disappear. They don’t walk away from everything without a trace as if it’s a choice.
This guy just decided to walk away and pretends and lies as if he didn’t abandon his family and as if he wasn’t a deadbeat dad and a terrible husband, though he is. People like him also can’t stay away from looking for other people to confirm his own delusional grandure, so he’s easy to find because of course he’s trying to find a new date and new jobs and new people to adore him, because he really believed he got away with abandonment and everyone just would love him no matter what. That’s so different than someone who would want to get help but can’t and genuinely can’t access the resources or ability to try to reach their loved ones and go back home. He had all the resources and just chose to live a lie and manipulate others. It’s very different.
@@Carrybean Oh yes, of course it's a very different situation. He's a douchbag, and that's it. I was just "thinkinh out loud". It just occurred to me that it would be nice if we could find this "easily" people who need finding.
That is a thing though? There's even a group of HS kids doing it now for like 4 or 5 years? People ARE trying
@@gamingbypix Can you share more info on this? Sounds interesting
there are online communities working to find missing people. While the internet has been amazing in finding people, it unfortunately can only take us so far with people who did leave a digital footprint.
he was on TV and posted his stuff online, so it was easier for people to track down where he could be. not all missing people will be doing that. even in cases that they do, it’s tricker since they might realize they’ll get tracked down if they go online.
thank you for your coverage. This was hilarious! I am a former employee at the restaurant he abandoned. We are all laughing our guts out over your vid. We have a go fund me for the staff under GHOSTED RESTAURANT - C Salt Employees Lost wages fund.
.. Why do you have a go fund me I don't understand??
@tanmaz8006 23 people were not paid for their last week of work. people with families. was trying to help, there was interest in us (abandoned staff) but it was pretty fleeting. The story is now over.
@overlordfemto7523 bounced checks, unpaid overtime, reimbursements for J1 worker visas and private events never paid. plus the final week. 23 people owed.
@overlordfemto7523 If you think a week of lost wages isn't a big deal, you probably don't work or provide for yourself.
@overlordfemto7523Despite how financially well off the staff are with losing a week's worth of wages, it's highly illegal for an employer not to pay their staff. The gofund me is probably also for lawyer and legal fees.
my favorite thing about this show is that it's always been called Scroll Deep
whos gonna tell him?
i think it’d be interesting if they pivoted to more youtube-centric stories. could rebrand as “youtuber news” or something.
@@PufflePie and then make a podcast of some sort?
What was it originally called?

@overlordfemto7523these two things arent remotely the same but judging by your embarrassing comment history you dont really care
@overlordfemto7523 there’s a reason she will never love you
Abortion prevents further abandonment, trauma, and a life of poverty.
You show this energy to bugs too? @overlordfemto7523
@overlordfemto7523 you do when it’s your body that will have to create and grow that life lol
I wish the law was that if you can’t get in contact with a person for more than a year and you are trying to get a divorce the court should just grant it for you. It’s not fair to keep a person legally bound to someone who doesn’t want to be found. What an irresponsible piece of garbage this man is.
daddy patriarchy
That's how Ohio rolls.
Living separate and apart for more than one year is grounds.
My ex dodged process servers that I paid for , quit his job, moved, etc.
I got sick of his bs.
I just looked at the calendar, saved my money, and waited.
He thought it wouldn't be granted if he didn't show up.
How wrong he was.
It meant that I got everything I asked for.
So he wasn’t paying child support the whole time he was gone?
Considering lots of men don't pay anything, even while present or their location being known, it doesn't surprise me that he paid nothing while hiding
I'm only 2 minutes into the video but basically most of the time child support is only legally mandated if you have some kind of custody agreement, which usually only happens if you're divorced or otherwise legally separated. But when your spouse just dips unexpectedly and is impossible to contact, I expect it would be difficult to obtain that kind of legal recourse. Iirc there are ways to have someone's custody removed without them signing off on it, but it's very difficult.
I don't get why people are shocked by this. My dad owes tens of thousands
You have been sheltered my friend.
So the “I just want him to sign some papers” was code for “I just want him to hand over large sums of cash”
50 years ago, guys would move one town over, buy a new car, and their family would never be the wiser. Now it doesn't matter how far you go, you'll be found.
You say that like it’s a bad thing 😂
One can still move within an hour of their abandoned family. Just need to stay away from social media and tv programmes wanting to interview you. Thats hiding 101
This!
I dunno.
Not true, if you don't use social media and take privacy precautions when interacting with the internet, you can totally disappear off the face of the earth
Gone Guy poster in the back is perfection
It takes a special kind of coward to up and abandon your wife & children, & a new born at that

Can we stop normalising men having zero responsibility?
this is what the other perspective of “dad went out for cigs when i was a kid and never came back” looks like
The fact that we need entire websites devoted to warning each other that men are lying and cheating… I can’t even. This is why I’m single 🤪
I’m glad they exist. Some of these cheating men could also be violent. These websites and forums may be saving lives.
I was married had 4 kids with my husband. We divorced and he never paid a penny ever towards them.

@overlordfemto7523 why you getting with someone that has 2 baby daddies?
Yes, hard truth…some men do this and some other (or even sometimes the same) men hate on single mothers. 🙄
@overlordfemto7523 why no disdain from these men towards their fathers that abandoned them with their mothers?
@overlordfemto7523 dude what????
@overlordfemto7523Not true, though. Don't pretend to care about facts and then spread lies. It is mostly men who leave the kids. Always has been.
Bro needs to pay his alimony and child support
This is exactly why those laws were made. Too many men thinking their legal responsibilities are identical to their moral ones. If there is no legal responsibility... then they just shrug and walk way from the families they created.
Tbh, if you don't want to be with your spouse anymore, that's fine. Divorce her and handle your business as a father. It's so often that people wish to blame the mother in the situation, but legitimately, We have to stop. He made the choice to date a woman who already had two kids. He made the choice to marry said woman. They both agreed to have two more. And then he made the choice to leave. Everything that happened afterward is a result of his actions. I don't really like the concept of putting your business online like this, if I'm being honest. But if he actually just dipped on his family, I don't think he gets that much grace.
Content creator forgot to mention that this guy had a third child he had abandoned before he ever met his wife.
It goes both ways, the woman already had two kids and the father left them. She then chose to have two more kids knowing full well the risk that the father might abandon them.
@scrolldeep
You actually have more influence on the future morals of these 15 year olds watching than you think. Studies have found a strong male roll model telling teen boys that r@pe is wrong does more to stop r@pe than anything else.
It's so powerful, charities now exist that allow men to volunteer and be that strong male roll model teen boys need.
If you look into the psychology of how important strong moral men are to both boys and girls, you would be filled with just a ton of anxiety from the weight of that responsibility.
This needs to be a pinned comment, because it is so accurate!
Lol not my problem
I love how everyone shamed him and it's so public he will never escape it. Protecting any future women he tries to get involved with. I hope the government garnishes his wages to help support her and his kids.
my eagle loving mind can NOT comprehend the mashed potato seeking badger
You can't really just have a second family or abandon your family like you used to. The internet sees all and knows all.
In 1922 my great grandpa left for milk. 3 years later great grandma remarried. When my grandma was 14 in 1935 she went across the continental us to find and meet her father. He had a wife house job and 2 other kids. He sent her on a bus back home from new orleans back to oklahoma after she rode a bus from oklahoma to new orleans. She had nobodys permission-the police were looking for her for 3 days.
I was looking for someone to comment about going out for milk. I guess it's been too long since that was actually a thing.
And Bumble said celibate is not the answer 💀
Oh yes my father did this to my mom. He suddenly disappeared while she was pregnant with me, no trace no nothing. Turns out he had run away woth another woman and they left tp another country the same day. I found his contact when I was 16, I needed some paperwork done, he acted as nothing even happened lol
c'mon benedict 'the bear? more like, not there!'
Have you ever heard of deadbeats? Families get abandoned by people all the time unfortunately.
The rat wife wasn’t assassinated, she tried to assassinate you and the rat, I don’t know why you would forget that. Scroll deep lore is famously easy to remember
Exactly not convoluted at alll and definitely appeared on an internet show called scroll deep
geez this problem of men just up and leaving is increasing so much in the states
Its always been a thing, thats why CS and alimony exist
I laughed so hard when you said there’s over 200 groups
At the ripe old age of 47; I STILL adore A Bug’s Life 😂
scroll deep's got the internet drama/30-year-old british children's tv genre ON LOCK
Situations like this is one of the many reason many people nowadays believe that having kids isn’t deserved by everybody. There’s a reason humans, especially women today, are so picky with who they have children with. Some people don’t deserve to procreate.
This story is crazy!!
That happened to my bother in law - his wife abandoned him at Xmas one year and it took him 3 year to get a divorce from abandonment of the marital home. There weren't any children though but he had to rehome his dog with his parents.
Bodger and Badger?? You’re making me feel so old
Can they possibly scroll any deeper?
I know it's irrelevant to the topic but what I'm shocked about this video is the guy commentating. How do you not know that men leaving women to avoid responsibilities as a father is a common problem? Or even finding out people treat women who are victims badly, even saying "there's a first time for everything"??? How are those rare/first time occurrences to you? What world do you live in?
Pretty sure that ‘first time for everything’ comment was sarcastic dude.

It’s literally a trope for a man to leave a woman once she’s pregnant or soon after she gives birth. This usually happens when they’re FWB or dating though, not married; that’s probably why the story went viral.
its also fun that no one mentioned how the welfare system made it a life hack for ladies to have more than one baby daddy, decimating the nuclear family unit. the state helped, its not really 100% human nature
No, it happens even more with married women. Theyre either left, or hes in the house being useless and shes a single mother anyway
I’m over here in Dallas not surprised it happened here 😂
Same unfortunately
Yeah my husband who I was with since I was 17 abandoned us on my 34th birthday. I'm a single mom of four now. He hasn't seen them since August 2023 and it was barely 6 hours over a span of three days.
Yes it is and has been a very common thing unfortunately 💔
Don't have kids ladies.
Thanks Benny I'll make sure to remember that for when I'm old in my 20s
The ex-wife (or soon to be) is incredibly composed and gracious in her words. I wouldn’t be so kind if it happened to me
Cookie Cat-he left his family behind!
It’s been going on forever. When the stock market crashed, men just left. Some killed themselves but others just left. During WWI and II, some men never went home and stayed in France and other countries to start new families with women they met there. Lots of books have it as a plot. Women know it’s a risk. We hear about it all the time.
Yep this is historical and currently common.
Reminds me of the time my sister tried finding a childhood friend for years. She gave me the state she lived in, and i already had the resy of the info myself. Found her in about 30 min. She was shocked. I was impressed by myself. Lol
Aaaaaand now I have the Bodger and Badger theme tune stuck in my head - sigh. THANKS*, Scroll Deep!

Its takes two people to create a single mum. Bros like forgetting about that.
How? Because last I have heard, it truly takes one.
@@babybear0067how do you think babies are made?
@@babybear0067I agree but only in the sense that the only way a mother can be made single is if a father abandons his responsibility
@MeanGreenMachine_ Nowhere in your original comment did you elude to the process of baby making. Not even remotely a little bit. Both did agree to the children. Later, it takes one parent to leave to make a single mother or father.
@gz5405 literally can only happen when either parent leaves. In this case, it is completely abandonment.
Thank you for making this around 10 min instead of 30-90min. Thank you thank you
Because she filed for divorce, she'll add to the 70% of women file for divorce stat, even though he left her.
Single PARENTS are a different breed
I just noticed that the poster in the back says gone guy instead of gone girl
The Rat is the perfect husband and if you really KNEW Scroll Deep you would know
Smh he had no intention of getting a divorce. He's probably dating and pretending to be childless and single, deceiving the next unsuspecting women.
As a man this behaviour is inexcusable if you begin a relationship with another person and that relationship includes becoming a parent you should be obligated to stay in the life of the child, (there are important exceptions of course) or at least be granted divorce.

It happens all around the world and not to only single mothers. In my country already married men and fathers travel and remarry in foreign countries and have kids and abandon them with no legal documents or nothing and gets back to his normal life after ruining many others.
The amount of half american kids in places like vietnam js absurd. The Phillipines actually sued the ameeican government for CS and i think they can file internationally. The collective of males are narcs and abusers, period.
