When this father is wondering what to do with his baby, he asks Reddit:&quot;AITA for wanting to put our baby daughter in a different room?&quot; My wife (40F), daughter (1F), and I (39M) live in a 2 bedroom house.

There&#39;s no way that he&#39;s going to set up a bedroom in the basement for his daughter and then move her upstairs when she&#39;s older and &quot;can appreciate the views&quot;.  He just doesn&#39;t want to give up his lake view, which he can&#39;t appreciate himself anyway (I personally don&#39;t look out the window while I&#39;m working, so it may be different for others). einsteinGO writes: YTA. Put your office in the basement.  I&rsquo;d be very concerned about baby being on a different floor than your bedroom, or in a place in the house where she can&rsquo;t be heard if something is wrong with your baby monitor.  Keeping a lake view for yourself and relegating your 1 year old to the basement is bad parenting. jezebel87 writes: YTA.
