The comment, “If it’s paying, leave am lydat. At least you know the truth,” attempts to justify the wife’s actions by subtly shifting blame onto the husband. It suggests that since her deception is financially beneficial, he should simply accept it, disregarding the ethical problem of using his and their daughter’s images to mislead people. This approach implies that his disapproval is unreasonable and reframes the wife’s dishonesty as a practical, even commendable, solution to financial needs.
By normalizing deceit in the relationship, the comment undermines the importance of transparency and trust. Instead of addressing the issue, it makes the husband seem overly critical, indirectly pressuring him to tolerate dishonest behavior that could ultimately harm their family’s reputation and integrity.
