Gender reveals... they're certainly not for everybody. Over the last decade, the popularity of gender reveals has skyrocketed - to the point where they now have become a social media staple. However, although having a child is supposed to be one of the most fulfilling and happiest experiences of a person's life, sometimes a gender reveal can act as a kind of "spoiler" for the eventual birth. And, whether some parents want to admit it or not, a gender reveal can often end in disappointment. For example, take this dad's reaction to finding out his partner was pregnant with daughter number three. Shared to TikTok by user <a class="link " href="https://www.tiktok.com/@kc.fulton?lang=en" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" data-ylk="slk:@kc.fulton" data-rapid_p="12" data-v9y="1">@kc.fulton</a>, the couple's gender reveal has amassed more than 43.5 million views after going viral on the social media platform. The video shows the family of four gathering underneath an umbrella. As the mom-to-be opens the umbrella, pink confetti showers the family - signifying that the little one on the way is a girl. However, rather than rejoice, the dad walks away and can be heard shouting and cursing. Check out the viral TikTok below: [[tiktokwidget||https://www.tiktok.com/@kc.fulton/video/7085045940910083374]] Now, despite the mom captioning the post, "I swear he’s happy", some social media users took umbrage with the dad's reaction. After comments were eventually disabled on the video, that didn't stop people from leaving comments on @kc.fulton's other posts, with one TikToker writing: "if he wasn’t prepared to have another daughter then why bother trying in the first place". A second added: "He should be ashamed of himself for that reaction. Grown man throwing a tantrum like that. Why you would post that video to begin with is beyond me." "Sure he can be a little disappointed if he’s wants a boy like a little mini me, but the way he acted wasn’t right, if she sees that she’s gonna be sad," wrote a third. <img class="size-large wp-image-1263152176" src="https://img.vt.co/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-20-at-13.57.33-1024x273.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="273" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: TIkTok]] <img class="size-large wp-image-1263152177" src="https://img.vt.co/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-20-at-13.56.57-1024x262.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="262" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: TIkTok]] <img class="size-large wp-image-1263152178" src="https://img.vt.co/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-20-at-13.56.25-1024x223.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="223" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: TIkTok]] But there were others who disagreed and voiced their support for the dad. "Why is it wrong for someone to want a son after having two girls," one person asked. Another parent added: "i don't get why people are so upset. when I found out my 3rd was another boy that was my reaction [sic]". And another supporter commented: "He's allowed to express his feelings people are very judgemental & sensitive [nowadays]. I'm sure he'll love them unconditionally" <img class="size-large wp-image-1263152173" src="https://img.vt.co/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-20-at-13.58.08-1024x228.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="228" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: TIkTok]] <img class="size-large wp-image-1263152174" src="https://img.vt.co/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-20-at-13.59.01-1024x266.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="266" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: TIkTok]] <img class="size-large wp-image-1263152175" src="https://img.vt.co/2022/04/Screenshot-2022-04-20-at-13.59.37-1024x258.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="258" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: TIkTok]] Following the reaction of her first video, mom @kc.fulton shared another post showing the doting dad with his other two daughters. She captioned the second video: "He loves ALL of his girls and they love him [...] He has loved his babies since the second he found out we were having them! He IS a good dad" [[tiktokwidget||https://www.tiktok.com/@kc.fulton/video/7085410253096881450]] What do you think of the reaction? Was it simply tongue-in-cheek and people are overreacting, or do you disagree? <h6>Featured image credit: Ceri Breeze / Stockimo / Alamy</h6>
