SA reacts to the father's post
The father's sentiments sparked considerable outrage among many online users. A common sentiment was that he appeared to be mocking the mother, warning that he shouldn't use his financial stability as leverage in a custody battle. Many expressed discomfort with his specific remarks about the Barbie doll, believing it undermined the mother's efforts to provide for their child.
Some were worried that the custody battle would affect the child, saying no child should live without her mom. Others, however, felt the dad was genuinely striving for his child's improvement and applauded his proactive stance in ensuring she had the best possible upbringing.

"I appreciate you for fighting to be present in your child's life. I appreciate you wanting to give your daughter the best you can. I do not support belittling the mom and her efforts, nor the town she lives in. I think that's wrong."
User @notty_k added:
"He thinks he is better because of his financial standing 🙄."
User @destiny commented:
"It's definitely about your ego. What do you mean small town life limits her? Small towns have better schools and extracurricular activities. That's how you build a child's confidence by putting her in an extracurricular class or reading club. A Barbie "not a cheap one", yho, you're a diva."
User @NRP added:
"When the narcissist with money belittles your parent after the mother did all she could with the little she had. I'm glad they are exposing themselves. Too many women and maternal families go through this in private, because the deadbeat decided he wants to be a parent all of a sudden! Why not have this conversation with the elders in the family? Content will kill families."

"This is about you and not about your daughter😫."
