AITA for choosing my brother over my marriage?

The incredibly obvious option C is adopting the kid with his wife still by his side.

The guy gave his wife an ultimatum without even discussing it with her first. She might have been 100% on board for taking the kid in and they could raise him together. I am 100% child free but if I were the wife in a situation like this I’d take the kid in if it were financially possible. Shit happens and sometimes you gotta step up.

But we don’t know what the wife would have done because OP was such an asshole he never even considered showing his wife the respect she deserves by talking to her like the other half of their partnership she was.

This isn’t hard.
