What Should He Do?  Play In World Cup Or Attend Birth Of His First Child

from Rogue Energy · host iHeartPodcasts

A French journalist has been suspended for criticizing Belgian soccer star Jeremy Duko who announced he may miss a World Cup game in order to be with his wife when she gives birth to his first child. France Pierron apologized after calling childbirth a “disgusting moment where the dad is useless.” She went on to question Duko’s choice, saying his baby “will always be there.” Doku isn’t the only player having to make tough personal choices while at the World Cup: two other players had babies born during the tournament. Hear what they decided to do when they had to decide whether to play or return home. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
