Tempting Fate

I got an hour and thirteen minutes through this one and was dismayed at where it was going, so I jumped on here to read the reviews. Yep, it goes where I feared, so I decided to cut my losses and not finish.

I thought this was going to be like most of the Lifetime movies where there's a mystery and the bad actors get theirs in the end. I guess it's debatable if the unhappy wife was a bad actor (I mean in terms of character, not literal acting abilities). In my opinion, she was horrible and her actions were not justified in the least.

I felt so sorry for her poor husband--a hardworking doctor who obviously paid all of the bills--while she kept the house and engaged in hobbies like yoga and furniture design. She's angry with him because he had a vasectomy without her knowledge. Last I checked, a man can do what he wants with HIS body. If she decided to get her tubes tied after those two kids, there's no way anyone would agree that the husband could weigh in on the decision--telling her to have another baby because HE wanted one. Would anyone agree he has that right? So what is the difference? Then she gets mad again because he had to cancel a getway with her due to work. The nerve of him, working hard to further his career and take care of his family! Sheez. He really deserved better.

They already had two young daughters, a huge house etc. But his wife was not satisfied as she wanted another baby. Easy for her to want another kid when she would not have to foot the bill.
